What is a Späti?

In its simplest incarnation, a Späti is a convenience store. Open 24 hours, day and night, Spätis are an intrinsic element of Berlin’s cityscape. Pretty much exclusive to Berlin, except maybe Hypezig, there are over a thousand of them and the one commonality that they share is their uniqueness. With a product range that includes the obvious, such as beer, wine (but in Berlin you drink beer), cigarettes, snack foods, soft drinks, and general convenience goods – you are just as likely to stumble over items ranging from volumes of poetry, Chinese pottery, or an almost complete collection of a hardware store.

Späti是一個在德國極受歡迎的文娛時尚 便利售賣空間，特別是在柏林眾所周知， 它二十四小時營業。 Späti字面翻譯為 “深夜空間”，主要供應酒精飲料、日常用品等，也包含很多文化限量產品等。他們(2000+店)深受年輕人歡迎，是柏林深夜文化的一部分.
