The local Prussian fare is in the main pretty drab, so it's good news for visitors that Berlin's roster of ethnic eateries continues to expand.

In Mitte, restaurants cluster around the streets Hackescher Markt and Oranienburger Strasse. The Kellerrestaurant im Brecht-Haus (Chausseestrasse 125) serves the playwright's favourite recipes amid theatre memorabilia.
Nola's am Weinberg (Veteranenstrasse 9) serves hearty Swiss food in a park pavilion. Good bars include the glitzy Greenwich (Gipsstrasse 5), its down-to-earth neighbour Altes Europa (Gipsstrasse 11) and the fashionable football bar FC Magnet (Veteranenstrasse 26).

Prenzlauer Berg teems with eating and drinking spots. On Kollwitzplatz, Gugelhof (Knaackstrasse 37) serves Alsatian food with friendly panache. Konnopke's Imbiss (under the U-Bahn tracks by Eberswalder Strasse station) has been serving up sausages since 1930.
There's authentic Czech food - together with in authentically fast and friendly service - at the Prager Hopfenstube (Karl-Marx-Allee 127) on Friedrichshain's main drag. Fargo (Grünberger Strasse 77) offers both a 'happy hour' and a 'hungry hour' in the east's youngest drinking district.

Kreuzberg is home to Berlin's most surprising culinary innovation: visit Hasir (Adalbertstrasse 10) for a Doner Kebab, invented in the city in 1971 by owner Mehmet Aygun. At the other end of the scale, Abendmahl (Muskauer Strasse 9) serves gourmet vegetarian food - and some fish dishes. Indeed, Kreuzberg's Oranienstrasse/Wiener Strasse axis and Bergmannstrasse area offer cafés and restaurants for every taste and price bracket.

Schöneberg's Winterfeldtplatz and Goltzstrasse are similarly blessed. Fine German-French dining in affable surroundings can be found at Storch (Wartburgstrasse 54), while the Pinguin Club (Wartburgstrasse 54) next door is a venerable and much loved local with a retro rock 'n' roll atmosphere.
