Best handmade icecream in berlin in our opinion. Watch out for the long lines and be sure to check out the exotic options like Madagascar chocolate with goat's milk and sea salt! The ice cream parlor got famous because they raised the prices to lower the number of customers – there were just too many!

Essentials

Our tip if you don't have much time: Delivery services like "Gorillas" deliver groceries within a few minutes and are hardly more expensive than classic supermarkets.

The Wall once ran here: Today the Mauerpark is a beautiful place where everyone can come together and where you can also go jogging. The eastern part with the hill is great for sunsets. There is a lot going on at the weekend and quieter during the week. Our tip: take a look at the northern part, which has been very nicely redesigned!
