Café bar and Spree Terrace

Catering is an integral part of RADIALSYSTEM V. The Café bar in the foyer opens daily from 10 am onwards and in fine weather, our riverside Spree Terrace is an inviting place to enjoy drinks and culinary delights in the open air. Situated directly beside the River Spree, with spectacular views from the Alexanderplatz to the Oberbaum Bridge and probably the most beautiful sunset view in Berlin, it is the perfect spot to end your day – including W-LAN and its own landing stage complete with deck chairs. But we don't just open the terrace and café bar to evening guests: we serve a small selection of freshly-prepared seasonal and regional dishes throughout the day. The culinary range on offer goes from weekday lunches from 1 pm and diverse cakes served onwards to classic meat and vegetarian barbeque specialities at evening events. The Spree Terrace: The ideal place to enjoy a relaxed sundowner or a glass of fine wine with friends by the River Spree.

For larger groups it is possible to book lunches or evening meals in advance – an attractive option for meetings, after-work gatherings, or intimate celebrations.


Cuisine at RADIALSYSTEM V

Johannes Emken, head chef at RADIALSYSTEM V, invites our guests to partake of freshly-prepared seasonal dishes: his cuisine is prepared using fresh products, mostly from the local region, which he and his team refine and transform using avant-garde cooking methods. Traditional preparation techniques are combined with international influences and creative elements. The spectrum of dishes on offer is very broad: From daily lunches for staff, artists and visiting guests, to conference catering and sumptuous receptions - from finger food to take-out lunch boxes, from passionately-prepared buffets to elegant evening dinners.


Our Head Chef Johannes Emken

Johannes Emken considers himself a "multiregionalist": He grew up in Oldenburg, the outskirts of Cologne as well as in Bremen and the local region, before moving to Berlin in 2000 after finishing his apprenticeship as a chef at the Jugendstil Bahnhof in Worpswede. Once in the capital, he gained experience in several popular establishments on the culinary scene such as the "Abendmahl" while also studying Cultural Sciences at the HU in Berlin. During that time he discovered his growing interest in food culture and notions of its presentation, as well as its place in a social and cultural-historical context and he began to incorporate these interests in his work as a chef. At the same time, he was influenced by ideas about the sustainability of food production and its relation to regional products. His cuisine is created with a commitment to freshness and ethical food production – be it in his role as head chef at RADIALSYSTEM V or in his own catering company "Organiced Kitchen".
