The Top 9 Restaurants In Wedding, Berlin

Brienne Pierce

Wedding is a neighborhood in Berlin that doesn’t get much love. Its lack of a hipster vibe, however, allows for a more authentic and varied type of cultural experience. From African cooking to tapas, Wedding plays host to a wealth of heterogeneity in the culinary realm. For those looking for a refreshing cultural experience, Wedding is the place to be.
