Fodor's Review:

The Einstein is a Berlin landmark and one of the leading coffeehouses in town. Set in the historic grand villa of silent movie star Henny Porten, it charmingly recalls the elegant days of the Austrian-Hungarian empire, complete with slightly snobbish waiters gliding across squeaking parquet floors. The Einstein's very own roasting facility produces some of Germany's best coffee, and the cakes are fabulous, particularly the fresh strawberry cake best enjoyed in the shady garden behind the villa in summer. The café also excels in preparing solid Austrian fare such as schnitzel or goulash for an artsy, high-brow clientele.

One of the most memorable parts of our visit. We came for breakfast and tried the scrumptious selection of rolls, meats and teas. I would love to return.
