The Grain
Prenzlauer BergContemporary pizza on Gleimstraße by Sarah and Musa: high-hydration dough, airy crust, good wines.
Sarah and Musa are from Berlin. After several trips to Naples and a growing passion for hospitality, they opened The Grain on Gleimstraße. Their goal: a great pizza that feels like eating at a friend's place.
Insider tip
„Try the crust on its own first — the dough is the point here.“
They call their pizza contemporary. For them the difference from classic Neapolitan lies in the hydration of the dough: with the right flours and techniques it holds more water and becomes lighter and easier to digest. After much experimenting with different flours they found their own dough, with a tall, airy crust. Toppings are classic, and there is burrata, bruschette or fig salad and a wine selection that is unusually good for a pizzeria. Open Wednesday to Sunday from 5 to 10 pm; reservations by phone during opening hours.
