Berlin Coffee, Sights & Art Loop

I planned this cycling route around some of Berlin’s independent art shops, with a few iconic sights and good food and coffee along the way.

Starting at the bike rental, you’ll ride past the Bundestag, through the leafy paths of Tiergarten and around the Victory Column (Siegessäule). From there, you’ll pass the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe and ride through the Brandenburg Gate before stopping for lunch at a cosy cycling café with fantastic food and a small shop tucked away at the back.

Next up is Let It Bleed in Kreuzberg, where you’ll find postcards, art prints and stickers by local artists. On the way to the next art shop, I stopped at MAAP and Rapha to try on some cycling jerseys and enjoy a good coffee.

Supalife Kiosk is another highlight, with an amazing selection of screenprints, risograph prints and zines. On the ride back to the bike rental, you’ll also pass do you read me?!, a small bookshop specialising in art and design books, a perfect final stop for a little more browsing.
