The story

Bob & Thoms Berlin - Modern French Fine Dining in Schöneberg

Willkommen im Bob & Thoms

In Berlin-Schöneberg, a short walk from Wittenbergplatz, Bob & Thoms offers an intimate dining experience built on the foundation of classic French technique. Chef Ruben Pahl, whose career includes stints at starred kitchens like Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Starnberg and Fischers Fritz, brings both creativity and precision to the stove. His approach starts with exceptional ingredients—whether red beet from the Schorfheide or duck from Dombes—and builds outward with modern techniques and global influences.

The restaurant seats just twelve to fifteen guests each evening, creating a personal, unhurried atmosphere. Host Oliver Körber, a Potsdam native with over thirty years in the industry, guides the evening with professional but relaxed service. For private celebrations, two dining rooms and a shaded terrace are available.

This commitment to refined, ingredient-driven Modern French cooking earned Bob & Thoms a Michelin recommendation for 2026—a recognition that speaks to the quiet ambition at work here. The menu changes regularly, reflecting seasonal availability and the chef’s ongoing exploration of flavor and texture. It is a place for those who value craftsmanship over spectacle, and substance over noise.
