"Weserstraße, Neukölln's nightlife street, is known for its high concentration of unpretentious "living room bars," and Tier is emblematic of them: think low-slung, mismatched vintage tables, chairs clustered together, and plenty of candles. As for the drinks, expect incredible, inventive cocktails at New York–speakeasy standards—the menu features options for timid drinkers as well as the more adventurous. "Tier" means means “animal,” by the way—after a few of these concoctions, don’t say we didn’t warn you." - Krystin Arneson
