Ralf Rüller’s The Barn has roasted in Berlin since 2012, supplying ten Berlin cafés with third-wave specialty coffee plus locations in Palma, Seoul and Dubai.

The outpost inside the Sony Center on Bellevuestraße is the tourist variant: bright, glass-roofed, acoustically lively — better for a quick stop than a long sit. The pick: beans to go, right at the counter without a queue. Oat milk at no extra charge, vegan pastries in the display case. Anyone wanting to test the brand without settling into a neighbourhood location starts here.
