Oderquelle

Prenzlauer Berg


It's always fun to pop by this woodsy stalwart on Oderberger Strasse to see what inspired the chef today. Most likely it'll be a well-crafted German dish like schnitzel with roast potatoes or roast pork in black beer sauce. Best seat: on the pavement, so you can keep an eye on the parade of passers-by.
