A classic decors with full of traditional-bar-scene. It was also nice to have an English menu -- but not a worry, the staffs speak perfect English, especially when communication about cocktails . The mixologist was fun & professional with the drinks-mixing & recommendations. We really enjoyed the experience here. It was a very cozy place with many great options for cocktails. Prost

I can't believe I made a special trip to this place!…read more I was looking for a classy and more upscale bar/lounge area for a Saturday night during my stay in Berlin. This was way too up tight for my taste. They had extensive drink menu and I selected a very good white wine. What was nice is that they gave me a complimentary welcome mini shot and a small tray filled with some potato chips, olives and nuts. The bartender took my coat from me, which was another nice touch. As I figured out that this place sucked for me and left, the card I gave them didn't work on their system. When I walked back while waiting for the cab, my bartender was running around panicked, because my card was denied (which was really strange because it worked in other places). I handed him another one, but this whole thing just left a bad impression on me. This place may be just wonderful for you, especially if you think you are high on a social ladder, but for me it was just too stuffy, with older or boring crowd on that particular night.

Wow. Talk about AMAZING cocktails! This place rocks!

My bf and I actually tried of the daiquiri's on the menu. If I had the means, I would definitely fly there only to have their cocktails and enjoy the surroundings. Did I mention I went here FOUR times during my two-week stay? Yeah, I hopped on the subway, walked my cute little butt several blocks, and then sat with my lover at the bar and savored each and every sip of my cocktail.

For fun, I attended a bar tending course here and I have since learnt quite a bit about alcohol!…read more It was fun, but you need to have good German and you only get to make one cocktail each as the practical. Most of the time, it was a talk about the various types of spirits (vodka, gin, rum, whisky, liquers) and sampling the stuff. So we all had some 50 tastings of pretty interesting booze! Every Tuesday is a Rum night and some other smoker events happen here as well, but since I don't smoke, I cannot recommend them.

From the owner: Das Galander bietet eine sehr umfangreiche und ausgefallene Auswahl an Spirituosen aus aller Welt…read more So zum Beispiel "Suze", ein Likör aus der Wurzel des gelben Enzians, und viele weitere Spirituosen, die in Deutschland nur selten in den Flachenregalen zu finden sind. Die Weinkarte umfasst ebenfalls viele edle Tropfen aus Anbaugebieten rund um den Globus. Und Biertrinker kommen auch nicht zu kurz: Ob Pils in schicken 0,2 Liter Tulpen oder Hefeweizen der Brauerei Streck-Bräu. Das Gezapfte ist hier immer frisch, prickelnd und kühl - dieses in Berlin sehr seltene Bier gibt es nur in wenigen ausgewählten Locations. Die Bar ist ein ein idealer Ausgangspunkt, um sich in das Berliner Nachtleben zu stürzen oder einen anstrengenden Arbeitstag ausklingen zu lassen.

When we reached it after traipsing through thick snow I thought it was shut but alas I saw a door bell so gave it a go. The place is tiny inside, could not fit more then 10-15 people I'd say. The barman looked liked Jeeves and had a very dry sense of humour. The choice of drinks is small: Rum, Gin or Champagne, no mixers just straight. I got Jeeves to recommend a rum and it was delicious ( A Venezuelan rum called Diplimatico). I wish I could of stayed there all night but a member of the party was tiring. When I return to Berlin I will most definitely be going to the Rum Trader again.
