Opened in the summer of 2010 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn by Motoko Watanabe and Shaul Margulies, House of Small Wonder (HOSW) soon became a popular place for breakfast, lunch and all day brunch and pastries. The new location in Berlin reopened in July 2021 and is located on the quiet Auguststraße. It has a very similar warm atmosphere, lots of wood, lots of plants. The culinary concept follows the footsteps of its Brooklyn café and has numerous Japanese influences: comfort food with organic, local ingredients, freshly prepared with Japanese flavours whenever possible. Homemade bread, croissants and pastries are all freshly baked throughout the day.

Ich hätte gerne vorher gewusst, dass das reservierte Tisch nur für eine begrenzte Zeit benutzt werden kann, weil wir früher dann weggehen mussten und das war etwas schade. Ich hätte auch gerne davor gewusst, dass nur mit einer Rechnung bezahlt werden kann. Das Essen war aber sehr außergewöhnlich, die Bedienung nett, das Lokal schön und insgesamt war alles gut.

Smaak is natuurlijk persoonlijk maar voor ons waren de gerechten niet naar verwachting. Slagroom was door de yoghurt gemixt zonder dat je verschil zag; Thick French Toast was nog net niet aangebrand en het pannetje op tafel had een onaangename geur. Overigens wel lekkere cappuccino! Sfeer was verder goed, erg aardig personeel.

Please change your dog policy and allow dogs to come. Every other restaurant in berlin does and I often choose not to come to yours simply bc I want my dog with me. Besides that I love the place

War eigentlich alles toll, jedoch die „Managerin“, welche nur englisch sprach äußerst arrogant Lies uns am Stehtisch 3 Minuten warten, obwohl alle Tische frei und fertig gedeckt waren. Sag mal geht’s noch?
