What To Eat in Berlin During Home Again with AGY3NA
Nothing quite hits like a summer in Berlin.
While Berlin can easily serve in its winter outfits—cave-like raves, snowy park walks, black faux-fur coats—in the summer, the city truly transcends. Think: terrace-side beers, riverside walks, and the unparalleled freedom of a techno fest under sunny skies.
Taking place from May 28 - June 2, Home Again is the ideal event for those looking to experience Berlin's robust music scene in full summer glory. Now in its third edition, the budding festival sprawls across four stages at the RSO, a former 19th century brewery converted into a spot for experimental and underground arts.
Boasting a line up including Bae Blade, Clara Cuvé, DJ Fuckoff, I Hate Models, Logic1000, Octo Octa, Peggy Gou and Solumun, the festival guarantees sunny dance floor mayhem which won't only leave you wanting more, but may also make you feel... a little a bit hungry?
Thankfully, Home Again artist AGY3NA is on hand with his favourite foodie spots in the city. Originally from Nuremberg, he moved to Berlin where he discovered queer nightlife and pursued DJing. "Berlin has a gravity that pulls people in, not just because of music, but anything associated with artistic freedom and being able to express yourself," he says of the city.
In his music, AGY3NA absorbs a multiverse of genres and spits them out into flawlessly cohesive mixes, touching on afrofuturism to acid. He cut his teeth in the city's renown musical institutions, with a show at the beloved Refuge Worldwide and sets at iconic clubs like Berghain and Panorama Bar. While he has since moved to nearby Leipzig, he continues to visit Berlin constantly, always hitting up his favourite foodie spots during every visit.
Below, he shares his favourite spots to fuel up before the club:

Le Bon
“Really great brunch / breakfast spot, very cosy. I just love the eggs benedict. Sometimes it can get very packed, so not a spot to go with a lot of friends, but good to go with a partner.”

Element Five
“Accessible and vegan with very good food in the heart of of Kreuzberg. It's spacious and does tapas, so to go with a group. There's normal tables and also spaces to sit on pillows on the floor, all very comfy. ”

Oona Bar
“This is the hub of Refuge Worldwide, which is a community radio and a place that’s very close to my heart. When I used to have my show, I’d go to Oona and listen to live radio. It’s very nice, very soft and not stressful, even though there’s a lot happening in the background with the radio. ”
