Berlin Trip : Ormado Kaffeehaus
I had something of a wait for a train, so I thought I’d pop into this shopping centre and find a coffee or similar. The photo above isn’t of the unit (it’s taken in the other direction when I was sitting down), but the food court was modern and rather comfortable for a shopping centre. I noticed that this coffee shop had a perfect Google Reviews score, something which is quite impressive to see a 5/5.
The service was impeccable, although when I ordered a latte the team member asked if I would like a German style latte or an Italian style latte. I answered the latte, but when I was sitting down it occurred to me that an Italian latte might technically be just milk, so I wondered what he’d bring over. Fortunately, he delivered a coffee and it was a light and airy drink with a depth of flavour, so all was well. I also had a rather delightful pain au chocolat, so this was a handy little snack arrangement. The surroundings were rather tranquil bearing in mind it was a busy shopping centre, with the prices also being reasonable.
I asked AI (yes, it’s true that this is my go to solution for nearly everything now) and it came up with this handy table for me.

Right, I think I have a better understanding now, although as with so many things, it’s a little complex. But, I can see why this venue is so positively reviewed, the team member was engaging, the location was clean and the food and drink was of a very good quality. All rather lovely.
