Champagne brunch in a century-old Berlin house. Bonvivant in Schöneberg delivers Michelin-star vegan brunch comfort, and you start with a small bottle of champagne. I love the way the meal feels special without being fussy, and I also really enjoy the terrace setting when the weather plays along.

This is the kind of brunch that works even if your group has different needs: the menu offers lots of vegan and gluten-free choices, plus options that are meant to suit different allergies. One thing to keep in mind, though: only the champagne is included—everything else (coffee, Spritz, matcha, brunch cocktails) is extra, so decide how much you want to drink before you order.

Key highlights to look forward to

• Michelin-star vegan brunch in Schöneberg near Nollendorfplatz
• Small bottle of champagne included with your meal
• Vegan and gluten-free options designed for different allergies
• Comfort-food favorites like pancakes and truffled potatoes
• Century-old house with a terrace and attentive service
• Low-waste, regional approach with sustainability as a core value

Bonvivant in Berlin-Schöneberg: the setting that sets the mood

Bonvivant is in Berlin-Schöneberg, close to Nollendorfplatz. It’s the kind of location that’s easy to reach while still feeling like you’re in a real neighborhood, not a tourist bubble.

What I like about arriving here is the atmosphere right away. You’re stepping into a beautiful, fine century house, not a modern glass box. That matters for brunch, because you’re not just eating—you’re settling in. There’s also a terrace, which gives you that extra option if you want a slower pace for a little people-watching with your coffee or drinks.

If your group cares about access, the place is wheelchair accessible. You can also expect a host or greeter who speaks German and English, which makes everything smoother if you need help choosing options that fit your diet or allergies.

Vegan Michelin-star brunch: how the menu really works

This is a vegan brunch at a Michelin-star restaurant, and it’s built around comfort foods you’d actually want at brunch. Think pancakes, truffled potatoes, and fried oyster mushroom toast. There’s also shakshuka and eggs benedict on the menu list of favorites, which is a good sign if you want variety that goes beyond salads.

The big practical win is choice. You’re not locked into one vegan dish. You’ll have many vegan and gluten-free options, and the restaurant is set up to be suitable for all kinds of allergies. That’s a huge difference from some “special diet” places where the vegan option is an afterthought. Here, the whole meal is organized around inclusion.

Still, I’ll be straight with you: when allergies are involved, you should expect to communicate your needs clearly when ordering. The restaurant says it is suitable for all kinds of allergies, but like any food situation, it’s smart to speak up early so your order is handled the way you need it.

Champagne brunch without the fuss: what’s included

Your experience includes one small bottle of champagne plus two main dishes. That’s it for the core meal, and it’s actually a helpful structure. It means you can plan your appetite: choose two mains you’ll enjoy, and pair them with the included bubbly.

Here’s how that changes the vibe versus a normal brunch where you might spend most of your time deciding between ten things:

• You can relax because the “center of gravity” is set.
• You’re less likely to get overwhelmed by a huge menu.
• The price stays more predictable since you know what’s covered.

One more practical point: the included champagne is a small bottle, so if you’re the type who plans to keep ordering cocktails or Spritz after the first round, you’ll want to budget for additional drinks. The champagne is part of the experience, but it’s not designed to replace an entire bar tab.

Picking your main dishes: comfort foods that feel like brunch should

You’ll have a lot of tasty directions to choose from, and the menu leans into that classic brunch craving: savory, filling, and slightly indulgent.

Based on what’s been highlighted as memorable, I’d pay attention to options like:

• Fried oyster mushroom toast, for that crisp-savory bite
• Truffled potatoes, if you want the comfort side of the menu to really shine
• Pancakes, because brunch without pancakes feels wrong
• Shakshuka-style choices, for warmth and spice
• Eggs benedict, if you want the classic brunch format without the meat or dairy

I also like that the restaurant includes options that can work as a bowl-style meal. In particular, the tomato sandwich and a granola bowl have come up as standouts—meaning you’re not stuck with only heavy comfort plates. You can pick something that feels cozy and rich, or something a bit lighter.

If your group has mixed tastes, this is where the experience shines: you’re choosing two mains, so it’s easy to split orders and share tastes—especially if you’re into comparing savory toast with potatoes or pancakes. Just make sure everyone’s dietary needs are respected when you share.

Drinks and coffee: what to expect beyond champagne

Champagne is included, but the drink list around it is where brunch can get fun. You can expect great coffee, brunch cocktails, Spritz variations, matcha, house-made lemonades, and iced tea.

In other words, even if champagne isn’t your whole personality, there are plenty of non-champagne options. That’s useful for mixed groups—say one person wants something lighter like iced tea or lemonade, while someone else goes for a brunch cocktail.

One smart tip: pace your order. A champagne brunch can turn into an all-day drinking situation if you treat it like dinner. Since only the champagne is included, consider starting with coffee or water first, then deciding on cocktails or Spritz after you’ve had a bite. It helps you enjoy everything instead of rushing through the meal.

Terrace time and service style in a laid-back Michelin setting

The restaurant keeps things relaxed even with the Michelin-star label. You’re not dealing with a stiff, formal meal where you feel rushed. Instead, you’ll get attentive service and a calm rhythm that fits brunch.

Sitting on the terrace is a great option if you want to slow down. Brunch on a terrace changes the whole tone—your meal becomes part of the day rather than an interruption. Even if the terrace isn’t your plan, the century-old interior design adds warmth and character, so you still feel like you’re in a special place.

Service is also part of the value. Attentive doesn’t mean performative. It’s the kind of service that helps you navigate choices, especially with vegan, gluten-free, and allergy needs. If you’re traveling with dietary restrictions, this is exactly the kind of place where good service makes the difference between stress and a genuinely enjoyable meal.

Sustainability and low-waste cooking: why it matters (and not just on paper)

Bonvivant focuses on high-quality regional products, and they have a low-waste approach with sustainability as a core value. That’s not just a feel-good line—it affects how you experience the food.

Regional ingredients often translate into flavors that taste grounded rather than overly processed. And a low-waste mindset can shape how dishes are built, how portions are considered, and how ingredients get used. In practice, what you care about is whether the food tastes intentional. In a brunch built around Michelin-level cooking, it usually does.

If sustainability is part of your travel criteria, this fits better than places that only offer a vegan checkbox. Here, vegan cooking is treated as serious food, and that makes the commitment feel real rather than promotional.

Price and value: is $69 per group up to 2 a fair deal?

At $69 per group up to 2, the pricing is worth looking at for a simple reason: the experience includes a small bottle of champagne and two main dishes.

In other words, you’re not just paying for a seat in a restaurant. You’re paying for a defined brunch package—champagne plus mains. That’s a strong value structure for a Michelin-star vegan meal because you avoid the common “it’s not that expensive until you order drinks” problem.

Still, be honest with yourself about your habits. If your idea of brunch includes multiple cocktails or lots of Spritz variations, your total spend may rise quickly since extra drinks and dishes are not included. If you treat champagne as the featured drink and keep the rest moderate, you’ll likely feel the value more clearly.

Who should book this vegan champagne brunch?

This brunch is best for people who want something special that still feels easy. It’s ideal if:

• You’re traveling with someone who wants champagne, and you want vegan food that doesn’t feel like compromise
• You need vegan and/or gluten-free options, especially with allergy considerations
• You’re after a Michelin-star meal but prefer a relaxed brunch vibe over fine-dining formality
• Your group wants classic brunch comfort foods like pancakes and truffled potatoes

It’s not suitable for children under 18, so plan on this being an adult meal.

Also, if you’re staying nearby in Schöneberg or planning a day around Nollendorfplatz, this makes a great sit-down stop—something memorable that doesn’t require an itinerary gymnastics routine.

Should you book Bonvivant’s Vegan Champagne Brunch?

Skip it (or at least plan carefully) if you know you’ll want heavy drink ordering, because only the champagne is included and the rest is extra. And if allergies are a major factor, plan to communicate your needs clearly so you get the right fit from the start.
