About this spot
Seerose is a Kreuzberg institution where you must order the Seerose cake with its signature cream cheese frosting and fresh strawberries, or try the classic Schokokuchen for a rich chocolate experience. This neighborhood bakery has been serving locals since 1954, offering slices that are dense, moist, and far superior to typical tourist traps.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order a slice immediately upon arrival as they often run out of their famous Seerose cake by mid-afternoon.
- Bring your own cup if you plan to take a slice to go, as the bakery does not provide disposable containers for takeaway orders.
- Ask for the 'Doppelte Schoko' (double chocolate) variation if you want an extra decadent treat without ordering a whole cake.
