"Ideal for a relaxed chat and a snack."   My Rating
23 wildfang	Posted on: Monday, October 26, 2009
	Review: Café Morgenrot is a very informal place which offers a great vegan-friendly buffet (pay between 4-8€). In the evenings there are little snacks such as hummus with bread or some delicious sandwiches with vegan mozzarella cheese (small 3,50€). I love the "hot chocolate rum" (3,80€). There are also other vegan options of cocktails available. Usually, there are two or three different types of cake as well, out of which at least one will be vegan (~1,50€ per piece). Sometimes one might get yesterday's cake for free. The staff is always relaxed and very friendly. The only thing I find a bit annoying is that there's a smoking area in the back of the café (so when you want to go to the toilet - take a deep breath and hold it ;) but you won't notice much of that in the front area.   Pros: informal * great food * good value Cons: smoking area * *

"awesome concept, great food"   My Rating
6 hbaley	Posted on: Sunday, June 28, 2009
	Review: Typically breakfast buffets, even if they´re vegetarian, aren´t vegan friendly, but this one was extremely. I left full and completely satisfied. They had a delicous tofu scramble, even some sort of vegan german pudding thing. Drinks have a set price, but the buffet is pay what you can between 4 and 8 euros. I was very pleased!   Pros: delicous * great atmosphere * spacious Cons: staff didnt speak much english * *

"pay what you can!"   My Rating

	Review: It's a great place with an alternative vibe. They have an exciting pay what you can vegan friendly buffet. It was my first experience with this kind of system and thought it was a great idea. You pay between 4&8 euros. Those that can afford to pay a little more, pay a little more. Be fair people!! These are the kind of places we need to support not steal from! Just wish the buffet ran all day!   Pros: sliding scale vegan friendly buffet * good vibe * Cons: * *

"Excellent for Sunday brunch"   My Rating
7 lysi	Posted on: Tuesday, March 17, 2009
	Review: What a great place for a late and leisurely Sunday brunch! The first time I went to Café Morgenrot was in summer, so we could sit outside, which was great as the place gets rather busy. The second time was in March, so too cold to sit outside. We didn't manage to reserve a table and couldn't find one for a party of 5 at 12 noon, when the place was really rather busy. However, people were friendly enough to squeeze together to make space for us. The café definitely has a squat type vibe about it, which I love and dogs are welcome not just at the tables outside. The cold buffet ranges from jam, vegan chocolate spread and cereals to fresh fruit, various savoury spreads, cheese, marinated tofu and salads. Unfortunately no vegan yoghurts or pudding options though. While you pay between 4-8 Euros for the food (you can go and fill up your plate as often as you wish at the buffet), you order and pay a set price for your drinks. The coffee is good and you can get vegan capuccions, lattés etc. as well as tea or cold drinks.   Pros: Great value * Well stocked breakfast buffet * Outside space Cons: Not all vegan * *

	Review: This cafe was sooooo nice, the waitresses were very helpful to explain us how the place is working, for the breakfast, you pay beetween 4 and 8 euros and take in the buffet what you want. The green stickers are for the vegan food and the blue for the vegetarian. It 's very good, and cheap. The athmosphere was excellent, and we found the perfect gig for after thanks to the bar!!   Pros: excellent food * good value * friendly staff Cons: * *

"Thumbs Up for MorgenRot"   My Rating
3 Tookl	Posted on: Sunday, August 03, 2008
	Review: I went to MorgenRot for'brunch' on Sunday and the food was good and visited again for an afternoon hummus snack and BioCidre. The vibe was great, the owner really nice, and some other people let me sit at their table and we had a good conversation. It's got a very punk, alternative style to it, and that seems to be the norm so far for vegetarian food I've eaten in Germany. Lots of variety in the brunch. I liked it, the place is in my 'hood while I'm here, will come here often. Oh, and it was very reasonable. The inside looked too dark and dank for me to sit in, so I sat outside which was really pleasant. Would recommend it, it's in a great neighborhood, good people watching, draws a pleasant crowd, as well. Even though I'm a nerdy american I was made to feel welcome.   Pros: many vegan options * friendly staff-good vibe * food was tasty Cons: could be cleaner * the inside was very dark *

"Post Punk Beer House No Hot Food"   My Rating
14 Raydoggy	Posted on: Saturday, May 17, 2008
	Review: If you live in a squat and you don't like hot food, and you are a pisshead (drunkard), this place is perfect for you. I for one, won't be going back. It's so dated (late seventies), but it's not being retro, these people are trapped in a time warp. Typically Berlin pisshead mentality.   Pros: * * Cons: Glorified Squat * No hot food * What is it?

What we have here is the owner (raydoggy) of Sun Tiki burgers in Berlin going off on some crazed slating of supposed 'rivals' to his business empire. Apparantely he is also some sort of zen cadet and spends his life helping others 'find themselves'...for a price of course! lmao. When I'm next in Berlin you'll 'find' me eating in a friendly cafe with friendly people and NOT at some pokey stand run by an egomaniac.. response by wob.youth • You know what? I didn't even notice that the food there wasn't heated! It was delicious and there was a lot of variety. I think if you go in with preconceived notions of what you're going to get, you are going to be disappointed. Now the cheap shot of the 'pisshead Berlin mentality' is ridiculous. Maybe you've been hanging out with too many drunks..... response by Tookl - report abuse -

	Review: Not anyone might feel comfortable in there, since this place has a clear anarchist/ squatters touch. But you won´t find to many similar places either after most squats are gone! If you happen to be in berlin during summer it´s just perfekt for a late breakfast outside. And it´s all-you-can-eat 4 what-you-wanne-give...AMAZING! They even used to have shows in the basement. Always jammed, but lovely...this might be history meanwhile. Merciless526   Pros: impossible cheap * nice buffet * Cons: * *

"Great cafe"   My Rating
25 kamikazeki d	Posted on: Wednesday, October 10, 2007
	Review: Cafe Morgenrot is a fantastic place to get a long, leisurely and late breakfast. Really great food on the breakfast buffet (all vegan items are clearly labelled), good coffee and a computer with free internet. It's a relaxed and open minded place (so if you're not you may not appreciate it!) but we really loved it. The pricing 'system' is really good too.   Pros: Tasty tasty food * Prices * Friendly staff Cons: * *

"friendly, chill atmosphere"   My Rating
1 SarahLouis e	Posted on: Wednesday, August 08, 2007
	Review: This cafe is the only place I found in Berlin to be explicitly vegan-friendly. The pay-what-you-can (between 4-8 Euros), all-you-can-eat vegan/vegetarian breakfast buffet was fresh and well stocked. It is a cold breakfast, with rolls, various spreads, cheeses, veggies, cereal, fruit and puddings. I'll admit coming from Canada I was expecting (and hoping for) a hot breakfast, but the food was tasty and healthy. All items are labeled either vegan or vegetarian. Vegan cake is also available for purchase. There is also a "public" computer with Internet available.   Pros: cheap, tasty and healthy * friendly staff * Cons: no ingredients listed * *
