Kaffee in berlin series: #7 Cuore di Vetro

CUORE DI VETRO

A new edition to the neighbourhood but on the quieter street of Max-Beer-Strasse (nr 33), which is parallel to Alte-Schönhauser-Strasse and near U-Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, this Italian run ice-cream store is fast becoming one of our favourite haunts for ice-cream, and the benefit is that their coffee is also great. Directions here.

I think I will have to save a blogpost just for the ice-cream, but in short they make their own flavours on-site and vary the menu from day to day.

As for the coffee, it is a very satisfying blend with an italian influence (understandably) and smooth non-bitter taste.

And the café itself is a very pleasant place to rest during a walk or shopping tour around the area, as it is on a quieter street. However be aware that directly opposite is a Kindergarten, so directly after school hours can become peak hour with after-school ice-creams being served. At other times however it is generally quiet and pleasant to sit outside if the weather is good, or inside opposite the ice-cream factory or upstairs on the mezzanine.
