Berlin's oldest beer garden — beer has been poured on Kastanienallee for over 180 years.

In summer half of Prenzlauer Berg sits under old chestnut trees on long wooden benches with a freshly tapped Prater beer from the in-house brew. Indoors the Gaststätte runs year-round: warm wood, indirect light, an old Berlin tavern room without kitsch. The kitchen is modern German home cooking with a northern bent — Grünkohl with Pinkel and Kassler in winter, Senfeier with crushed potatoes as insider move, goose like grandma's in Advent. At night fairy lights hand the yard its glow, the reason the Prater turns into a quiet must-address.
