A fashion store and cafe at the ground floor of the Soho House in Berlin. Great food and drinks, nice slightly upmarket vibe to meet for a bite, shop for something expensive but cool, or it is also a great spot to work because they have massive tables and free wifi. It's a bit of a freelancer hangout and very international.
