Vegan-friendly stays in Berlin

Berlin's tourist board, visitBerlin, promotes the city as a vegan capital, and HappyCow's 2025 Vegan City Index placed it third worldwide. Its guide to vegan Berlin points to Prenzlauer Berg, Mitte, Friedrichshain, Neukölln and Kreuzberg, and covers everything from vegan döner and doughnuts to a vegan restaurant listed in the Michelin Guide. The same guide lists vegan fashion, shoe and cosmetics shops, so the city also suits travellers whose veganism extends beyond the plate.

Berlin has also hosted a free vegan summer festival on Alexanderplatz. Dates change from year to year, so check the city's event listings.

For the rest of the country, see vegan-friendly stays in Germany.

Vegan food in Berlin is less a scene in one street than a layer across the inner districts: bakeries, doughnut shops, burger and döner shops and cafés all have fully vegan examples, and the city even has a vegan restaurant listed in the Michelin Guide. Falafel and hummus, sold at Arab and Turkish snack bars, are vegan by default.

Shops generally close on Sundays, so guests who self-cater should plan the weekend shop for Saturday.

A BVG ticket covers the U-Bahn, trams and buses as well as the S-Bahn within the fare zones bought, and the inner districts are flat and easy to cycle. Zone A is the centre inside the S-Bahn ring, zone B runs to the city limits, and Potsdam and BER airport lie in zone C. The lakes on the city's edge, such as the Wannsee and the Müggelsee, are reachable by S-Bahn.

Summer brings long evenings and outdoor events. Winters are cold, with Christmas markets in December. The Vegvisits search works by place, dates and guests.
