The Coffee Shop

The waitress didn’t tell us when the coffees were ready, so they ended up being lukewarm or cold. She wasn’t very friendly, and the coffees weren’t very good. Also, the prices have changed be careful, it’s about €1–€1.50 more expensive now

Cute little coffee shop inside the foreign ministry's office - so you've to do a full body checkup to get in haha. But super calm atmosphere inside, very clean and organized. Good coffee, decent prices and great service - the brista was super nice and kind. Would happily recommend! :)

Decent coffee, but not a specialty coffee place. Filter coffee here is with a french press (cafetière). Nice setting in the covered atrium of the Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) -- you go through a security screening. Pastries underbaked, some very underbaked.

Kind of a hidden coffee shop located inside the Federal Foreign Office building in the atrium. You will have to pass the security check like in the airport to get inside the building. Coffee is decent, but the location make it nice. Quite, calm and cosy. You can sit here and rest for a bit.

Having traveled to Berlin many times over the past 16 years I am continuously delighted with its variety and changes. I also like a mix of planning and spontaneity, and it because of the latter that I found this delightfully, and deservedly top-rated cafe. I had just done the Dome walk at the Berliner Dom - yes, you can walk around the outside of the Dome with an unchallenged 360-degree view of the city. Plus, I had done it during a thunderstorm and I was suddenly in need of coffee, from somewhere close-by. The Dom's cafe was crowded full of drenched tourists... Where to go? My map app suggested The Coffee Shop was in easy walking distance. This is definitely the best coffee place near the Dom. It is actually located in the vast and airy atrium of the Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany. So, don't be surprised that you have to pass through a full security screening just to get your caffeine fix! It's worth it! I enjoyed an excellent espresso macchiato, Florentine and organic juice while riding out the wonderful thunderstorm, in the dry. In the afternoon there's very little food available - go earlier for breakfast pastries or lunchtime soups - but I think the coffee is definitely worth walking around the block for. Also, it's open weekdays only, and from 7:30 am.
