Berlin is considered one of the most vegan-friendly cities in the world. Those who follow a plant-based diet will find a huge selection of restaurants, cafés, and bakeries that are entirely vegan or at least very vegan-friendly. However, when it comes to breakfast in Berlin, the options are sometimes surprisingly limited—many classic breakfast menus still rely on eggs, cheese, and sausage.
LIT Coffeebar in Moabit recognized this early on and developed an extensive vegan breakfast menu that delights both vegans and flexitarians. In this article, we’ll show you what a truly vegan breakfast in Berlin should offer, what highlights we feature, and why quality is our top priority.
Vegan breakfast in Berlin — what is possible?
A vegan breakfast doesn’t have to consist of toast and jam. Modern vegan cuisine offers countless ways to create a complete, satisfying, and delicious breakfast:
- Smoothie and acai bowls with fresh fruit, granola, and superfoods
- Plant-based bowls with quinoa, hummus, vegetables, and tahini
- Vegan pancakes with berry compote
- Avocado toast on sourdough bread with herbs
- Chia pudding with almond milk and toppings
- Vegan baked goods—croissants, muffins, and cookies made with plant-based ingredients
- Oat and almond milk lattes, freshly squeezed juices
The secret lies in the ingredients: Fresh organic products, high-quality plant-based milks and creative recipes elevate vegan breakfast to a new level.
More Vegan Options on the Menu
In addition to our two signature dishes, we offer numerous other vegan breakfast options:
- Avocado toast with chili flakes, lime, and fresh herbs
- Chia pudding with oat milk and berry compote
- Vegan pancakes with maple syrup
- Oat granola bowl with plant-based yogurt
- Sandwiches with vegan spread, hummus, or tofu
- Vegan croissants (subject to availability)
Our hot drinks are also fully vegan-friendly—oat milk, almond milk, and soy milk are available at no extra charge.
Why Quality Is Our Priority
A vegan breakfast is only as good as its ingredients. At LIT Coffeebar, that means:
1. Fresh, Regional Products
We shop weekly at Berlin markets and work with local suppliers. Seasonality tastes great—and supports the regional economy.
2. High-Quality Plant-Based Milks
We use high-quality oat, almond, and soy milk without unnecessary additives. Organic whenever possible.
3. Homemade Ingredients
Our granola, jams, and spreads—everything is homemade, without industrial processing.
4. Transparent Menu
We clearly label all vegan and vegetarian dishes. We are happy to advise customers with allergies or intolerances.
5. No Hidden Animal Products
We take meticulous care to ensure that vegan dishes are truly vegan—no butter in the bread, no honey in the granola, no cream in the coffee.
