Ora

Simplicity and honesty as a driving force

The wine bar Ora is located in an old pharmacy in Kreuzberg, creating a completely unique experience with the location’s dark woods, patinated surfaces, glass, and old interior details. The cooking is simple and straightforward, always with a clear connection to the farmers behind the ingredients — who they are also happy to tell you about when the dishes are served. A tip: book a table in the private dining room behind the main dining area; it’s a trip back in time.

Summary:

• Has its own farm in the Spreewald

• Uses almost 100 percent organic ingredients

• Avoids lemon and other imported produce

• Focuses on local, artisanal drinks
