update: great food - Edit
Update: I've now been a few times and really like this place. The food is amazing and very reasonably priced (daily changing menu plus a few things like nachos and fries that are served every day). They are now completely vegan. Their lentil and coconut soup is amazing (it has vanilla in it, what a good idea!!!), their sweet potato fries are awesome, and the hot drinks are very reasonably priced (they also serve alcohol).
It was warm inside with a real fire, the staff are very nice and multi-lingual, and the cakes are really good - especially the plum brownie. Highly recommended. Only complaint is that hey never serve the Cambodian Fish Amok when I visit and I've wanted to try it for over a year!
Pros: food, staff, price
Cons: opens late (5pm on weekdays)

Wunderbar! - Edit
We visited in August as part of a week-long stay in Berlin. We absolutely loved the location of Emma Pea, surrounded by amazing creativity, artwork, bars and nightclubs. From the outside the area looks almost derelict but venture off the main road and you're rewarded with a super-cool place to spend the night.
I ordered the vegan burrito and it was lovely, as were the chips. There's a bar right next door playing decent house/techno, but of course, it's Berlin, right?!
Although we always try and at least attempt to speak the native language whenever we travel, all of the staff spoke perfect English.
Pros: Cool location, English-speaking staff, Chilled out atmosphere
Cons: Location may not be for everyone

Burrito brilliance - Edit
I've been here several times for their Mexican themed menu and have never been disappointed. Very filling, so value for money is there. I have had one of their special curries before, which was equally delicious. Just make everything vegan goddammit!
Pros: Fast, Relatively healthy junk food fulfillment, Value for money
Cons: Stark atmosphere - can't chill in there really, Not 100% vegan even though it would be an easy cha, Unnecessary soya mince in the chilli (personal)

So good we came back - Edit
Been here twice now, the second time we brought the family when they were visiting and they all really loved the food (they are vegetarian/meat eaters). The burger was delish and although it cost €9.50 you do get a lot of wedges and sauces. The first time I had a quesadilla which was also nice but quite a small serving. Loved sitting outside on the decking too watching people go by.
Pros: Very tasty, Outdoor seating

Nice curry - not everything is vegan - Edit
Not a posh place, but friendly and the Cambodian amok curry is good. Portion size is sufficient as the coconut milk is filling.
Be careful as although they call it vegan street food, and the word vegan is all over the place, they serve cheese and cows' milk and there is a 20 cent surcharge for soya milk in the coffee and chai.
Price for the curry was 6.80, so cheapish but not really cheap for Berlin.
Pros: Tasty curry, Quick and friendly servics
Cons: Surcharge for soya milk, Not a vegan place, despite the name.

Vegetarian or Vegan? - Edit
Being called the 'Emma Pea Vegan Food and Bar' we assumed that it was exclusively vegan and even the prices would have suggested so. However I would say that this place is 90% vegetarian, with the rest being vegan. It did say cheese on the menu, but I suppose we stupidly thought it was vegan cheese, as nearly everything had cheese with it. We have certainly learnt our lesson, double check and don't be so naive (we are newly 6 month vegans, so we are still learning). The staff were friendly, the location is great. I do believe that this place can improve. As a vegan, I would go back if they make a few changes.
Pros: Friendly staff, Location, Nicely presented
Cons: vegetarian or vegan? Need to be clearer, small portion

great site with good burritos - Edit
Sitting right in the middle of what makes up for most of Frierichshain reputation and showing the best side of it, here are wraps, burritos and similar on offer. Very friendly people, very laid back atmosphere. Enter the complex off the street and look for a little balcony, there's the entrance.
Food was good and reasonably priced. Could easily eat there again.
Pros: perfect F-Hain setting, a little post-apocalyptic :-)

Yummy burritos! - Edit
Really cool little place surrounded by bars, music venues, a climbing wall and skate park! We discovered this place while on a Fat Tyre Bike Tour - the menu is simple but everything is freshly prepared and delicious. They can make anything on the menu vegan. Really friendly staff.

Used to be excellent, now lost it's charm - Edit
UPDATE: unfortunately their old concept didn't pay off. So they simplified the menu (no creative main dishes anymore) and also replaced their nice old tables with new ones. I am a bit sad about this. The rest of the food could be still excellent.
Pros: cool location, open till late night
Cons: no raw food

a true and pure gem - Edit
I first couldn't find it at first but I'm glad I finally did.
I had the quesadillas and a cake for dessert.
Make sure to try the mango ginger sauce. I could have drank litres of it - literally
Apart from that the staff is super friendly and the interior is beautiful, too!
Pros: Absolutely delicious , Superb location and service

Nice Bar and Food - Edit
Great place for late night snack with drinks since they are open till very late. Can be difficult to find though.. From the street, you have to go inside the gate into a dark large ground area where there are bar/club/rock climbing place and then turn left. Several vegan options such as tasty burritos, toastada (more like a thin pizza?), soups and sweets.
Pros: Open till late, tasty
Cons: Difficult to find, a little loud

Hidden and surprising pearl - Edit
The place was a bit hard to find for us who have never been here before. Surrounding environment was wonderful with little details ( such as a wall painting of Darth Vader holding a paint roller and referring to Banksy). Atmospheric and dusky place with candles and just a few tables which made it peaceful. More tables outside on both sides of terraces. We ordered the Rohkost zucchini linguini (which resembled a volcano) and the portion was really tasty and stomach-filling. A true hidden gem. Sheep furs were creepy and decreased comformity. Bathroom was not in a cool and decent way.
Unbeatable - Edit
My favorite place in Berlin. Delicious food, amazing staff and lovely atmosphere. The food is cheap and filling and super tasty. A friend and I were staying nearby, and ate here almost every day. Incredibly warm and friendly staff, who seem to get along with every customer who walks in the door. We're already planning our next visit to Berlin just to eat some more of their vegan cakes!

Cool spot - Edit
Bumped in to this place by chance whilst exploring the R.A.W area by the railway....it's a bit hard to find if you're not a brave person! You will see Veganz supermarket on your left across the street...there are some metal stairs that appear to go down into an open/run down/graffiti area next to the railway. If you walk into this area and just keep following it down along the railway, you'll find pop-up shops, climbing, indoor skate park, bars and Emma's place. It's in a a railway carriage- fantastic atmosphere and extensive menu. We came here late so just grabbed drinks and a vegan chilli but it was good and the place was busy, so they must be doing things right :) They had vegan cakes on offer at the time.
Pros: atmosphere, cool location
Cons: hard to find

Yummy Burritos - Edit
This place is awesome: good food, friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. We ordered vegan burritos. The portion was goood, and it was some tasty burritos. If you tell them you want vegan, it's no problem they will make you a vegan version. The desserts were also good. We had the cherry poppy seed crumble cake that was excellent. We will defintely return. Oh, and they have an excellent beer on tap, the Andescher. It's one tasty beer.
Pros: Good value, Excellent food, Friendly staff
Cons: Limited seatings

Great food, great atmosphere - Edit
Tried this restaurant for the first time recently, and I really enjoyed it.
I could not figure out how to know which items on the menu were vegan (no star or V or anything), so I just had to ask. I got the Malaysian curry with Rice, and it was amazing. Very good flavor, great ingredients. This was the most expensive item on the menu, 7,20€, but definitely worth it.
I would definitely go here again.
Pros: All veg
Cons: Vegan items not clearly labeled
