Cabslam on Postcard

"Best Brunch in Berlin The Berlin brunch scene is typically a buffet-style brunch with meats & cheeses, maybe a quiche or a soft-boiled egg. While that's an enjoyable meal, sometimes breaking out of the mold is called for. That's what makes the California Breakfast Slam so unique. It's an American-style brunch that serves up Berlin's best pancakes. But even here the breakfast meals come with a twist... Using gourmet cooking styles and spices, the typical American brunch of eggs, pancakes, and hash browns becomes an explosion of taste in your mouth!"

The Perfect Weekend in Berlin

"An oasis of California-style cuisine in a city obsessed with German cold-cut buffets and seeded rolls, Cabslam (California Breakfast Slam) occupies a quiet corner of Neukölln. Its varied menu ranges from shakshuka (poached eggs cooked in a spicy tomato sauce) and giant, fluffy pancakes with candied nut and fruit toppings to biscuit sandwiches and other egg dishes such as huevos rancheros. The place is invariably packed—especially on weekends—with a young, international, and often fairly hungover clientele. Burgers, salads, and other classics are also on offer for lunch, and the service is as warm and welcoming as the wood-heavy interior."

This is a really relaxing, welcoming place in Neukoln. The menu is pretty small but offers a good variety of brunch staples including veggie and vegan spins on dishes like eggs Benedict as well as the traditional versions. The steak and eggs is very good and great value. Our breakfast here set us up for a busy day shopping. The service was friendly and unobtrusive. My partner left his mobile phone on the table and the server ran down the street to hand it back. No complaints except it's a little off the beaten track. If you're in the area check it out.

I went there one and half years ago, and ate one of the best and biggest pancakes I ever had, it was so huge I couldn't even finish it. They also have a lot of different dishes that sounds lovely in the menu. Friendly and warm environment, the service is fast and efficient. They also sell homemade (?) cookies and brownies at the counter. A good place, I think, to have breakfast on a cold winter morning!

Fantastic brunch place! Hands down, One of my favourites in Berlin. Delicious food, lovely service, clever content marketing and cosy atmosphere. This little gem has everything to succeed.

Very good, can’t complain really. My dish (pictured) cost around 10 euro (a bit less, don’t remember the price exactly), and was absolutely delicious and filling. Orange fresh and coffee were very good too. The servant (a guy) was friendly and effective. We ordered also a pancake - just to try- and this is where I would give minus one star (but won’t) as I didn’t find it super-dooper. Or maybe I was just full with my main dish. Anyway, I’m rating the place high and would go there again for brunch, yes.

We had a nice brunch last Sunday and the food was really good but we were very disapointed with the service. The place was not really full, there were 4-5 waiters but we had to wait 30 minutes for drinks and almost one hour for the food. The Florentine eggs were delicious but...12€ and one hour? I don't understand that...Also we asked if there was any problem with the kitchen and they answer that is 'normal waiting time', so that showed that anyone in the staff was worried about the delay. In conclusion: there are more places in the area that we will try next time ;)

I was a regular customer here the past two years however after the change of ownership in November 2017, the soul has been butchered and the quality of food has declined. The old staff look pained and the new staff inexperienced in the American style of service. The renovations have made the interior look like just another generic cafe, ‘‘tis your gritty Neukölln home turned cafe no more. The former cult loved Cabslam brunch experience is dead and gone. No longer recommended.

Although, the place looks nice and the staff is very friendly, pancakes there are not the best we tried in Berlin. They are way too big, nothing special. Coffee is pretty good.

We came to this place for brunch and had one of the best meals I’ve had in a very long time. The food and coffee were excellent, the service great and fast, with a super nice waitress and the place was really beautiful. The prices aren’t cheap but neither expensive: completely worth it. 100% suggested for everyone
