Around Berlin
Since 2015 the reincarnated Wannseeterrassen has lured the hungry and thirsty to this site above the Strandbad Wannsee lakeside lido, where the original opened in 1937 only to burn to the ground twice. The biggest asset is the grand terrace with lake views. The restaurant serves Angus burgers, Wiener Schnitzel and peel-to-eat shrimp.
There’s also a cafe with lovely cakes, a self-service beer garden and a children's playground.
