This little cafe provides some of the best Soviet-style lazing and grazing in the post-Soviet world, which despite what the old Russian propoganda posters might suggest is served largely without the oft pungent aroma of Communist nostalgia. Wifi access is free daily, 10am to 10pm, and they also serve a legendary Brunch every Sunday from 10am until 4pm. Turn up an hour before the end and you get to scrounge through the leftovers for a discount price.

Gorki Park serves some of the best borschtsch in Berlin, sells Russian Moskwa beer on tap and of course plenty of lashing of Wodka on request (ask for it served the traditional way, with black bread). The whole thing is very tounge in cheek, all down to the cafe motte 'long live hospitality.'
