Atmosphere was nice due to sun (it was sunny day in Berlin), tables in open area and near by flea market of Schöneberg. That is it. I couldn't find any positive thing. We certainly waited 20 minutes to order and another 20 to pay bill.

(its literately across the street) We were so welcomed and had a group of 10 and were expertly serviced. The food and drink were timely even though it was busy and there only 3 servers. The servers helped us pick dishes, as there were only 2 of us fluent in German. Great spot, had a great time. I wish all the places we ate in Berlin were as great.

Situated beside the Rathaus Schöneberg and at the end of the Volkspark it is a lively beer garden and restaurant, Friendly staff and always a great place for people watching! Their Flammkuchen is delicious or if you want to snack then there is Currywurst and Pommes and great beer! Frequent wedding parties from the Rathaus add life and colour to the venue! Take the U4 to Rathaus Schöneberg (One of the most beautiful underground stations in the system!) and stroll through the Volkspark until you come to the fountain with the Golden Stag on top. Turn left and there is PlatzHirsch!

We had a wander around the flea market over the road saw this place so decided on a late brunch.There were plenty of tables around outside and each chair had a little blanket on to ward off any chills. It was early March and was warm in the sun so the blankets were a nice touch. Also around were deck chairs to relax in where several people were enjoying a coffee and a book read. Most certainly a very relaxed way to spend a Sunday morning.We didn't have to wait too long to be served, personally I opted for a lovely slice of appelstrudel and a half litre of Berlin beer which I thoroughly enjoyed. Service was a little slow but then it added to the relaxed atmosphere on a Sunday morning. I am so pleased we found this place, it comes well recommended!
