Schim:Pause in Berlin, specialty coffee cafe

the pause blend pulls you in before you've even decided what you want. there's a kind of quiet seriousness to what schim:pause does on dunckerstraße, the sort of place that clearly isn't performing specialty coffee for anyone's benefit but its own. regulars have figured this out, which is why the standing here runs so deep. if you're coming from prenzlauer berg's busier corridors, the shift in pace is immediate. go for a filter if you're staying a while, or something milk-based if the afternoon is already running away from you. the coffee speaks without needing explanation, and the people who return regularly tend to know exactly what they want before they walk through the door. start with whatever's on filter that day.
