Don't know if you have noticed but well made cocktails don't grow on trees. They are also not cocks…read morefollowed by tails. They are a much more sublime thing and from my world experience a rarity. Not even in Mecca Manhattan they are as common as one may think.
This little piece of Berlin, for this temporary neighbor I may add, is a darling. Their cocktails aren't top notch but are very pleasant especially considering they don't burn in my pocket. Happy hour, 7:00 to 9:30 every day of the week, very convenient. That's PM in case you were wondering and if you were feel free to stop this reading and run to the closest AA meeting.
Bold guy's cocktails are good, sorry beard guy no offense, but both put their best efforts doing them.
This is a very quaint full of character bar in Berlin with old school scents still in the air. If you are not local I do strongly recommend the visit.
The crowd is the local Schoenberg crowd, which means not much Mitte pose or Charlottenburg aristocrats.
The big minus, at least for someone such as I, is the smoke factor. Because let's put it straight as hard as Germans might get on rules, they don't really give a shi*t about the no smoking laws. I guess until Oma and Opa start frowning upon a lit cigarette no one will ever give a damn. Get in before 9 and you would be fairly OK, visit later and you might need that upgrade to your health insurance.
