Cafe Pförtner, Wedding

One wet and windy day, we headed over to Wedding to check out a Berlin cafe with a difference, one that alongside it's normal dining seats also has an old bus that you can sit and eat in (and even play-drive should you wish!). Here's my review of Cafe Pförtner...
I've got to start out by saying that this cafe isn't a family cafe. It seemed like it's main customers were a mixture of media types, political types and the odd tourist, with it's staff being a mixture of friendly and not-so-friendly-typical-Berlin-service-types. This doesn't mean it's unwelcoming to families however and we managed to fit in no problem.

Much to my son's delight, you can climb right on to the drivers seat and play at bus driver. He spent ages 'driving' the bus and clicking the various buttons whilst we sat and drank our drinks. It's a self-service cafe so you need to place your order in the main cafe area. 

The bus itself is clearly a popular option to eat in and we saw a number of people try and get a seat in there whilst we were visiting so do be prepared that it might be full when you arrive, especially at lunch time.

The menu changes regularly and you can find out what is currently available through their Cafe Pförtner Facebook page. The food is a bit on the pricier side but what we ate was absolutely delicious. I've heard that the food can get a little too experimental at times but so far I am pleased.

If you are looking to go a bit off the typical beaten path and to try out food at somewhere a little different, this could be a good place for you and if your child (or you!) wants to have a go at playing bus driver, this is definitely somewhere you should go.
