A city morning delight. Sitting at a table in the sidewalk, with a flaky just the right butter croissant and good espresso, watching the city start the day. The eggs, scrambled, were remarkably fresh, the matron attentive and happy, the bikes and tram a tableau. I go back every morning, I'm there.

The coffee is amongst some of the best I've had in Berlin to-date, the homemade baked goods are exceptional, and the various prepared fresh daily breakfasts are incredible. Plus the ambiance is par none, and even resembles San Fran in a way with the tram passing to and fro outside. I’d strongly suggest visiting Bei Maria’s if the opportunity arises.

I honestly think Maria makes the best Franzbrötchen of Berlin. Tasty, buttery, and THICC - which are exactly the qualities of a good Franzbrötchen.

This is an excellent bakery. I tried everything on the breakfast menu during our stay next door and it did not disappoint. Everything was delicious (bread was tasty and fresh) and the service was excellent (friendly,quick,great prices). I would recommend this places to anyone needing breakfast, bread or coffee!
