Die Henne
Berlin
Copyright: Visit BerlinDie Henne
The legendary Henne on Kreuzberg’s Leuschnerdamm is a real Berlin institution. Berliners love it especially for the best chicken in town. The oldest restaurant in the city has existed since 1621 and is now a culinary landmark. In a pub tradition going back more than a century, this was a place for persecuted Social Democrats to meet during the Nazi era and the guests watched the Wall be built right outside its doors.

Dining
Berlin caters to every palate and budget, from multi-course menus at Michelin-starred restaurants to boulettes or a doner kebab at local snack bars. The city's culinary scene knows no bounds, offering Australian and French cuisine, exotic Asian dishes, and the iconic Berliner currywurst. Regional cuisine in Berlin is hearty and delicious, served in cosy traditional pubs. A unique highlight is the all-day breakfast offered by many cafes, perfect for night owls who enjoy a leisurely start to their day. In summer, city life spills outdoors, with beach bars along the Spree River becoming hotspots. These are ideal places to relax with a cocktail or savour a Berliner Weisse, a wheat beer mixed with raspberry or woodruff syrup. It's a summer treat you won't want to miss!
