Food & Drinks
Fresh air makes you hungry
Let your gaze wander over the lake over a latte or study the sundial on the calendar square during lunch - our restaurants and snack bars are ideal for a longer break or a small snack in between.
Seestern
The »Seestern« is what one imagines an ideal typical café to be when on a day trip: From the slightly elevated terraces you can look out over the idyllic lake landscape of the Britzer Garden and enjoy carefully prepared food and drinks. The kitchen of the »Seestern« combines traditional dishes with modern influences, whereby great importance is attached to the seasonality and regionality of the ingredients. In case of bad weather, guests also have a lovingly designed interior at their disposal, which has a special history of origin.
Italo-Bistro
The Italo-Bistro located at Kalenderplatz was built in 1985 according to the plans of the architect Prof. Jasper Halfmann. The sloping glass façade of the main building, together with the two lower side buildings, forms a semicircle around the north axis of Kalenderplatz. Outside, tired, hungry walkers will find numerous seats, which in the summer are pleasantly shaded by large sunshades. And you can be sure to experience the culinary delight that the name »Italo-Bistro« promises: Pizza and pasta, opulent sundaes and coffee specialities.
Milk bar at the water playground
The completely renovated milk bar at the water playground has been open again since May 2024.
As a tenant, visitors young and old can enjoy the sustainable offerings of EISDERIX. The company, which is based in Berlin-Neukölln, attaches great importance to locality: In addition to the eponymous ice cream produced in Neukölln and fair trade coffee roasted in Neukölln, all products such as baked goods and soft drinks come from suppliers within a five-kilometre radius of Britzer Garten.
Opening hours:
- Mon-Fri 12 am to 7 pm
- Sat/Sun 10 am to 7 pm
In case of bad weather (rain/storm) the milk bar remains closed.
Reading café in the Karl Foerster Pavilion
The reading café not only attracts bookworms, but also cakes and ice cream fans. In addition to these two ever-popular delicacies, the café also offers a variety of savoury dishes, omelettes and salads. The interior of the café is framed by floor-to-ceiling windows, so that cake and culture fans can always enjoy the view of the surrounding greenery while consuming their favourite treats. In the summer months, there are also various outdoor seating areas.
