Boxhagener Platz and surroundings

Boxhagener Platz sits at the center of a lively neighborhood known for casual dining and late-night energy. The square itself is a small park with a playground and a café, surrounded by streets lined with bars, cafés, and independent shops.

Eating and drinking around the square

Simon-Dach-Straße, just a short walk away, packs in low-cost bars and restaurants with a relaxed, social feel. Many places offer simple menus, outdoor seating when the weather allows, and a friendly atmosphere that lasts well into the evening.

Weekend brunch traditions

Weekends bring a wave of classic Berliner brunch options. Affordable buffets and set plates appear across the neighborhood, drawing groups of friends and families who take their time over coffee, eggs, and fresh bread.

Sunday flea market

On Sundays, a small flea market sets up at Boxhagener Platz. Stalls sell secondhand clothes, vinyl records, books, and handmade goods, inviting unhurried browsing and occasional treasure finds.
