Sourdough schiacciata from Florence, pressed by hand and baked all day in Berlin Mitte, filled with mortadella from Bologna, porchetta di Ariccia, stracciatella, and a glass of Italian wine to go with it.
Schiacciata (skya-CHA-ta) is more than bread. Born in the bakeries of Florence, this crisp-yet-soft flatbread was made to be shared with friends, a glass of good wine, and a few simple ingredients.
At Crosta we are serious about the simple things. It only takes a long-leavened sourdough, a drizzle of olive oil, and the rhythmic press of fingers. The result is the iconic crosta: crisp on the outside, soft and airy within.
We fill it with the best of Italy: creamy stracciatella and smoked provola, porchetta di Ariccia, mortadella from Bologna. And we pour wines from producers who care as much as we do. From a crisp Lugana to an elegant Chianti or a bold Nero d'Avola, every glass pairs naturally.

From a crisp Lugana to an elegant Chianti or a bold Nero d’Avola, every glass pairs naturally.
Two ways to do it properly: we come to you, or you take over our room on Weinbergsweg.
Freshly baked schiacciata, antipasti boards and Italian finger food delivered across Berlin, for team lunches, workshops, launches and celebrations. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free planned in from the start.
Book part of the space or the whole shop, just off Rosenthaler Platz. Seasonal antipasti, schiacciata, Italian wines and cocktails, with our team handling menu, pairings and setup.

The words our guests use most, straight from Google:
“We come here often for the schiacciatas …. they're always made with fresh ingredients and make you feel like you're eating in Italy.”
“Ordered delivery and it arrived hot and still perfectly crispy. The portion is huge and definitely great value for money. I will absolutely be ordering from here on the regular 💯”
“The place is really authentic and super flavorful. The Focaccia is absolutely super fresh, crunchy from the outside and chewy from the inside.”
“If you're a fan of Italian sandwiches, this is definitely the place for you in Berlin Mitte. Very delicious.”
“My sandwich was really good! (I ordered a custom one) Yes you may say it's just an expensive sandwich but the quality of the products, and their freshness and just the non-processed taste was so good.”
“Too good to be true, I almost fainted with every bite, next time you should call an ambulance before you have a slam dunk :-D”
