Best Bars in Berlin

The nightlife scene in Berlin is legendary around the world. Stories have passed along with tales of 72-hour club binges and people not realizing how long they’ve been out dancing. It’s well known the clubs of Berlin are made to entertain and keep people in them for as long as possible. However, the bars of Berlin do not receive as much attention. Generally, bars are less wild than clubs and don’t play the same kind of music. The bar scene has been overlooked for too long; the bars are ready and waiting to be discovered.

Looking for the best place to watch the Berlin sunset with an entry fee of only €3? Look no further than Klunkerkranich. This urban bar is located on the top of a multi-story car park. It’s a great place to visit during the summer time to relax with friends while watching the sunset. The entry fee goes toward keeping the area green and providing live music every Sunday afternoon.

Germany is world-renowned for its beer. Enjoy an old-fashioned beer garden with some thirst-quenching German beer. Prater Garten is Berlin’s oldest beer garden and one of the most popular in the city. At times it can be overrun with tourists; however, the garden sticks to its roots and still serves reasonably priced beer.

Spend some hours at one of Berlin’s best gay bars, Mobel-Olfe. It’s a cheap bar with a wide selection of Polish beers. The bar has chairs stuck to the ceiling from when it was once a furniture store. Every Tuesday night is ladies night and it’s queer-friendly establishment, but, like most places in Berlin, they don’t care what your sexuality is.
