Step into Chipperfield Kantine, a delightful cafeteria tucked away at Joachimstraße 11 in the vibrant heart of Berlin. With its unique architectural charm, this hidden gem offers more than just a meal; it provides a whole experience that’s as satisfying to the eyes as it is to the palate.

The atmosphere is casual yet refined, characterized by an open kitchen that invites diners to witness the magic of meal preparation. Here, the chefs whip up a variety of hearty German dishes, ensuring every bite is fresh and bursting with flavor. Imagine the aromas of sizzling ingredients and the sight of expertly crafted plates as your meal is prepared right in front of you—this is a dining experience that engages all your senses.

According to a recent visitor, \"Great vibe, not easy to find such good establishments…everything is cooked right there on the spot in an open kitchen setting.\" This speaks to the cool, welcoming ambiance that Chipperfield Kantine cultivates, making it a popular spot for both locals and curious travelers alike.

Guests rave about the generous portions and the enthusiastic service. A diner named Aleksandar Tsvetkov remarked on the \"typical German food\" that is both substantial and delicious, emphasizing the friendly and efficient service that keeps the good times rolling. Whether you’re enjoying a delicious fish dish that has garnered high praise or exploring other culinary options, you’re assured a fulfilling meal.

Great vibe, not easy to find such good establishments. We went there for coffee but it also offers lunch and everything is cooked right there on the spot in an open kitchen setting.

Small design pearl in the heart of Mitte! The food is typical German food, portions are big! Great taste! The service is pretty friendly and very fast. They don’t have a lot of seats inside so if you don’t wanna wait, you can reserve. Credit cards are accepted.

Love the venue and the staff, so friendly. A little hidden jem. Take card payment. Food is really nice but depends on your choice, fish was excellent, alternative lasagne not so happening. A little on the pricy side for Berlin but worth a visit.

The restricted menu concept can be terrific. It's good here too, but it could be next level. At the next level, the dishes are just slightly more evolved; deeper stocks, interesting twists, and a rare ingredient here or there. I like this place and our meal was good. The service is really terrific, and the chefs are proud. Take a breath, guys, and tweak things up a notch... Have fun with it.

Nice little surprise, the Kantine is in a hof. We had a table outside and enjoyed the quietness and calming atmosphere. Food taste fresh and good, prices are average for the location. We had the salad and soup. Dishes are around 9-14 euros I believe. I would come back for sure :)

Best lunch experience I have had in a long time. I do recommend checking the weekly changing menu on their website before you go. Selection is limited
