    The new Yuccie addition to Mitte Caffès. Nice interior, international crowd. Flat white was good, the peanut butter cream what-ever also. Expensive. You pay for the hype.

    People talk more about the cakes (great!) than coffee (very good too). I love the slightly Italian feel of it - bar & bar chairs. And now they have the bench on the sunny side of the street too!

    Mindblowing cheesecake, super happy to see them opening up a new branch in Mitte. Prices are pretty high though, €4.5 for a tiny cheesecake is a lot. Still it's too good to resist

    A cheeky bite-sized cheesecake for what ails ye. I saw a 4 month old chihuahua here once.

    Cakes are really awesome, espresso was real italian style, interoir is stylish - but the prices?! Come on! €4,5 for a tiny cake. It is good to try, but for me not a regular place to enjoy

    If you cut off the crust from your bread their little cheese cake will change your life. 🤣 Actually, it most-likely will be an absolute delight for anyone!! 👌🏼

    People that know coffee will appreciate this place. Flat white and iced latte are the best in Berlin. Also great beans to take home and grind your own.

    Delicious fluffy cheesecake and great smooth latte 👌🏼 my husband had the hot chocolate - he said it was amazing and more on the bitter cocoa than sweet

    Excellent coffee, friendly staff, lovely decor. Plus, a single-serving version of their legendary Philadelphia cheesecake. Recommended.

    Very trendy location, like the terrazzo and brass interior. Flat white was nice but not amazing. For the interiors it gets top marks for a coffee I think I still prefer Ben Rahim around the corner.

    This is their second coffee spot. Hmm i dont know too posh for me. But try some of their deserts, yummy!

    The original Five Elephant was great a few years ago but this place is the definition of bad hipsterism - behind the counter mustaches, small and pricey cakes and drinks, stools only, no toilets.

    Mini versions of the original cafe’s cheese cake can be found here and taste just as good!

    Relaxed fresh place to sip after a good meal across the street. Grab some beans from the shelf!

    Extension of the Kreuzberg coffee roastery. Come for the coffee, stay for the cheesecake.

    Nice interior, good but expensive coffee and cakes. Charging € 4.50 for the tiny cheesecake when you get an actual piece for a similar price at their Kreuzberg café is silly & even too much for Mitte.

    Cheesecake tastes like ginger bread cookies, but with highly soft cheese and good coffee

    Good cake. Very dog friendly. Good tea, a lot of love in the making of everything.

    Good coffee — of course — but tiny (i.e. crowded) and annoying people.

    Had a flat white with their Biftu Gudina beans, which was good but had tones I didn’t think went too well with milk.

    What's wrong with the five Elephant coffee shops?In both places the staff was very rude and the coffee over extracted.

    Good for a quick coffee, but not for sitting down a while. For that, I would go to Father Carpenter instead.

    Seriously what is this? They don't have toilets and the service is crap! At least my peanut butter and toffee pastry was good but I feel ripped off!
