Sustainability Focus
This guide prioritizes venues with certified organic/biodynamic wine programs, zero-waste kitchens, renewable energy operations, and ethical sourcing. Look for the green Sustainable badge for leaders in circular gastronomy.
ORA
Housed in a 19th-century pharmacy (Oranien Apotheke, est. 1860), ORA represents Berlin's ability to preserve history while revolutionizing dining. The original green leather apothecary cabinets now store biodynamic wines instead of tinctures, and the marble-topped bar serves a daily changing menu of zero-waste cuisine alongside natural wines from female-led wineries. The space operates on 100% renewable energy, with a fermentation lab in the cellar transforming vegetable scraps into house-made vinegars and miso. Their wine list focuses on low-intervention European bottles, particularly from Austria's Weinviertel and Slovenia's Primorska region, served with seasonal small plates that utilize entire vegetables—root to stem. The courtyard terrace, shaded by century-old chestnut trees, is powered by solar panels integrated into the historic awning. It's a masterclass in circular gastronomy without sacrificing an ounce of Berlin cool.
