Mövenpick Café is the only Priority Pass facility in Berlin-Schoenefeld Brandenburg International Airport.

Do not expect typical lounge facilities like showers and computers as this is not technically a “lounge”; it is classified as a Priority Pass Restaurant where members are given a credit amount to spend on anything they want within the café.

Credit system

Priority Pass members visiting Mövenpick Café are given EUR 23 (S$34) per person (EUR 46 if you bring 1 guest). You can get any food or drink items from the menu and choose to dine in or take away.

My partner and I wanted to use the credit for coffee and a couple of cookies each but the friendly staff insisted that we use up our EUR 46 combined credit! She even threw in a couple of chocolate bars to make sure that we get as close as possible to the credit limit. How nice!

On-arrival or before departure

As we visited the café upon arrival, we had to collect our checked baggage soon and had everything to-go.

I flew out of the same terminal a few days later and got some snacks for the flight!

Bottom line

I would have preferred to have a proper lounge in this terminal but the generous credit at Mövenpick Café makes it a great option for pre-post flight snacks.

  1. Hey 🙂 so you could also use the priority pass upon arrival? they scanned your boarding pass and we’re fine with it?

    Thanks, Rayson
