Expats find ready-made food and water, local beer, prepaid SIM cards, and household basics here for their first week in the city. Because of the Spätkauf’s compact size, people usually come here for quick purchases. However, it has also become a place for locals to socialize. They gather over affordable beer, coffee, and snacks, often spending less than at cafes and bars.
The Spätkauf tradition goes back to the 1950s, when late-shift workers visited after most other shops had closed. Though the terminology has evolved since then, similar neighborhood convenience stores are now found in neighbouring cities as well.
Visitors can recognize a Späti with its brightly-colored exteriors often extended with wooden tables and benches on the pavement. Many of them are run by migrant Turkish, Arab, and Vietnamese families, reflecting Berlin’s multicultural identity. Spätis are especially valuable as they stock groceries, household items, and toiletries when most supermarkets and convenience stores remain closed.
The most popular Spätkäufe are tucked away in Berlin’s neighborhoods; some have become local favorites among residents. Here is a list of recommendations complete with opening hours, what you can find there, and how to contact them:

The Deutschrapspäti stocks household basics, snacks, drinks, and personal care necessities. The interiors look bright and comfortable with deep teal walls, pendant lighting, and stocked shelves. It also functions as a DHL parcel shop within walking distance from the neighborhood. For those interested in music and entertainment, there is a recording studio with a ready-to-use setup and access to a producer/engineer.
This is a Spätkauf where you can buy refreshments on the way home, purchase mobile plans, and make photocopies of documents. They have faxing and postal services, which is particularly useful for a new Berliner handling paperwork. Digital payments, credit cards, and other card options are an added convenience.

Späti25 offers sweets, snacks, beer, non-alcoholic beverages, and hygiene products. The staff offers home-delivery options of 35 to 55 minutes.
Gino’s Späti is an official partner of Wolt Lieferdienst, a same-hour delivery platform. They offer wine, spirits, coffee, confectionery, cocktails, and vapes. Like Deutschrapspäti, they offer DHL Parcel and Ria Money Transfer services convenient for last-minute needs.

Späti24/7 is popular for its collection of 200+ drink brands, water, juices, and energy drinks. It stocks food, hygiene, and cleaning products for newcomers. If you’ve somehow lost your phone charger in the move, they also stock charging cables and other device accessories.
They sell a selection of cash and prepaid cards and offer Flixbus booking services to neighboring cities without downloading unnecessary applications. Here, you can purchase pet supplies, SIM cards, and mobile phone credit for your journey. Späti24/7 is located in Kreuzberg, the hotspot for cultural dialogue and exchange.
Kiez-Späti Friedrichshain describes itself as ‘our neighborhood shop’ offering cold drinks, snacks, postal services, office stationery, and toys. It sells cosmetics, hygiene products, and technology accessories such as Bluetooth speakers, cables, and watches.

Here, you will find sweets, snacks, tobacco, non-alcoholic beverages, and chilled spirits before a night out or house party. The Späti also offers self-parking and free Wi-Fi for customers, and remains open till early morning, allowing people to pop in right before they return home from a party.
Kiezkiosk Alt-Moabit was founded by Berkay Tonk when he was nineteen years old, and visitors today find a wide product range and quick service. The shop offers gums and mints, drinks, milk products, beer, vapes, and even games for children. People gather for informal conversations due to its open-door atmosphere, as Kiezkiosk Alt-Moabit welcomes everyone from locals to expats.

This is a hybrid Späti-café with café-style exteriors, interiors, and furniture. Here, one can buy household needs while enjoying coffee. Mood Café X Späti also functions as a DHL Parcel stop for last-minute posting needs.
If you’re craving a late-night dessert, East Shop Berlin sells ice cream and specialty coffee apart from typical Späti offerings. They serve breakfast and offer a wine selection, and have outdoor seating for diners.
