Welcome to our Food Guide.
The area around Frankfurter Tor in Friedrichshain is defined by its diversity. Since the fall of the Berlin wall, this section of town has become home to an ever more open-minded and international crowd. They have done much to make the area near Neon Wood a place that’s well worth exploring and by far one of the best areas in Berlin to EAT! Here are our recs.
Milch&Zucker
Milch&Zucker is one of the closest nearby cafes to Neon Wood – and they make one delicious cappuccino. Besides having scrambled eggs, fluffy croissants and a great vegan plate, their regularly changing lunch menu is no pushover either, thanks to some solid pasta dishes.
Location:
Warschauer Str. 70, 10243 Berlin
Il Ritrovo
With great ingredients and generous portions, Il Ritrovo is a renegade mix of Italian cooking and punk rock style – making it one of the neighborhood’s best spots for pizza in an atmosphere that evokes something that feels refreshingly DIY and 90s in its nature.
Location:
Gabriel-Max-Straße 2, 10245 Berlin
Santa Maria Eastside
With the flavors of Mexico and the charm of a gastro-pub, Santa Maria Eastside is one of the best places for food in Friedrichshain. Heavily influenced by Mexico City’s own street-food culture, this unique restaurant is where you can always enjoy a reliably spicy mix of classic Mexican dishes in new and exciting arrangements – but be sure and start off with their succulent tacos
Location:
Krossener Straße 18, 10245 Berlin
Saporito
With a menu that’s constantly changing but always serving up some of the most OG Italian ingredients this side of Friedrichshain, Saporito never fails to have some really good food, and it’s not far from Neon Wood.
Location:
Straßmannstraße 21, 10249 Berlin
Fatoush
For great salads, falafel, and just outrageously good Middle Eastern food in general, nothing quite tops Fatoush. Located on the lively Simon-Dach Straße, you’ll find yourself right in the middle of the action right after having finished a very delicious (and healthy) dinner.
Location:
Simon-Dach-Straße 41A, 10245 Berlin
Silo Coffee
If you’re seeking a solid hangout spot, we’d suggest selecting Silo Coffee. Just a short walk from Neon Wood, they’ve got their own roaster and their own approach to a good atmosphere. We’ll also add, You haven’t properly enjoyed a Berlin brunch until you’ve had one over at Silo Coffee. With a combo of avocado, fresh bacon and perfectly gooey eggs (locally sourced), they’re always cooking up the best of the best.
Location:
Gabriel-Max-Straße 4, 10245 Berlin

Great fusion cooking knows no bounds over at Chum and Friends. When you’re serving delicious drinks, flavorful burgers and dynamic deserts, there’s plenty on the menu to enjoy for everyone.
