    The Commonground breakfast is amazing! And the style of the place is really cool, we could spend all day here!

    Come for the coffee, stay for the cocktails. Eat the whole time.

    Delicious breakfast and coffee. Gets busy on weekends, very trendy. Staff is very friendly. Love the little garden in the yard during summer time.

    Wonderful interior, great coffee, tasty and creative menu, fine but small wine selection and original drinks and cocktails... what more can you ask for?

    Lovely place with great food made with love. Interior design is also very inviting. Highly recommended for a brunch or an afternoon cocktail. Try the salmon or the tacos. Delicious.

    From the coffee to the tapas, the cocktails, the atmosphere, and the staff, all tip top. If you want to start your day right, check out the brunch. If you are into happy endings, their nightcaps!

    One of the best breakfasts in Berlin, you have to get the sausage on Sironi bread and make sure you get it with extra chorizo!

    Sister to Silo Coffee, they serve Fjord coffee, their roasters in collaboration with Father Carpenter. Had a tasty Mountain Blend flat white. Good granola and French toast.

    If you believe in stereotypes this is the perfect mix of „hipster-mitte“ & „the motherland Prenzlberg“.I prefer service a bit „personal“ rather than „cool“ but I would recommend this place for breaky.

    Try the berry brioche if you have a sweet tooth or the commonground is served with a delicious pesto and guacamole. Will be back next time I'm in Berlin!

    Great coffee. All the food is exceptional, but pricey. Go in the evening for a cheerful gin cocktail.

    A nice place with great food and good service. I recommend the poached egg on toast with wild mushroom, goat cheese and avocado. The taste of mushroom is just amazing and work with other components.

    Great place to work, cozy and spacious. Great ginger tea and all day brunch options. London style interiors.

    Check Wi-Fi times before you come - why open a cafe and have separate wifi times? Also no laptops on weekends, which is a bummer. Good cold drip!

    Nice design, friendly staff and tasty breakfast combined with day drinking.. what’s not to like? maybe the price tag...but once in a while worth it!

    Great and very big breakfast or brunch for a very reasonable price. Totally loved their bread and coffee. Definitely one of the better places in this area with very modern design inside.

    Such a cool and instafriendly interior. Mostly crowded but the staff will take care of you. Food was 10/10, went for a salty as well as the sweet breakfast option.

    The zucchini fritters and their homemade lemonade are pretty delicious. People who work there are lovely and the outside area is adorable.

    Great menu but portions are disappointingly small. It can get full and chaotic but the service is great. Always eat The Commonground with your choice of mushroom/bacon 👌🏾

    Cocktails were both original and yummy. Service was really friendly and the place itself is cool and cosy. It is maybe a little expensive for Berlin though.

    Another busy brunch place. Extremely cute place. The latte is amazing here. Highly suggest the classic eggs on toast - the sourdough toast is amazing.

    Offshoot of Silo Coffee in a very touristic location in the heart of Mitte. The coffee from Fjord Coffee beans is really good and the food carries the high standard set by their older sibling.

    The Winter Blossom cocktail is to die for! And the staff are super friendly and know how to make a ridiculously good Flat White. Will definitely be going back.
