Welcome to Chapter One Coffee, a delightful gem nestled in the heart of Berlin at Mittenwalder Str. 30. This charming café has made its mark as a pioneer in the city’s vibrant specialty coffee scene, blending expertise with warmth. Upon entering, one can't help but be enveloped by the tantalizing aroma of freshly brewed coffee, crafted with care and precision.

The atmosphere is cozy yet bustling, perfect for a quick takeaway or a short respite from the lively urban environment. Though space is limited, the friendly baristas elevate the experience, offering knowledgeable insights into their meticulously selected beans sourced from some of Europe’s premier roasters, including Audun Coffee, JB Kaffee, and Ernst. Amr Mousa, a satisfied customer, noted that the barista provided excellent recommendations, particularly praising the Syphon coffee—a method that not only showcases the rich flavor profiles of the beans but also offers a delightful spectacle.

But it’s not just about the coffee; Chapter One Coffee also serves delectable accompaniments. Melisa Sandoval highlighted the delightful croissants that pair beautifully with a steaming cup of sunshine. Their laugenecken, a German pastry filled with ham and cheese, garnered praise from V. H., who deemed it among the best they’ve ever tasted. Such culinary treasures add a lovely touch to the coffee experience, although it’s worth noting that the small footprint of the café means it caters primarily to takeout patrons.

While some might consider the lack of seating a drawback, it's a small price to pay for the exceptional coffee and friendly service. And as one customer aptly put it, the coffees are “great and very state-of-the-art,” reflecting a commitment to quality and craftsmanship that many coffee aficionados would appreciate. So, if you’re in Berlin and on the hunt for a truly noteworthy caffeine fix, Chapter One Coffee is a must-visit destination.
