Assel, Berlin

Visitors may stumble across this pleasant, but slightly dingy subterranean establishment en route from the Hackesche Höfe to the New Synagogue on Oranienburger Straße. With wooden benches and contemporary art on the walls, this well-established bar has a somewhat rustic feel to it. Summer sees the tables advance out onto the pavements, affording a pleasant view of the trees opposite. This is a place people come to chat, enjoy a lazy breakfast or meet up for an afternoon coffee or evening beer. It's also a popular pit stop for tourists, who can refuel on snacks such as broccoli cheese.
