Fitcher's Vogel - Review - Friedrichshain - Berlin - The Infatuation

"Fitcher’s Vogel is the archetypal Berlin bar, with its peeling wallpaper, glowing vintage lampshades, excessive amount of candles, and dusty upholstered furniture. It’s a short walk from Berghain, so pop in for some pre-queue Dutch courage or to nurse your ego when you inevitably don’t get in. It’s open from 6pm until 3am on weekdays and 5am on Friday and Saturday and fills up quickly, so head down early if there’s a big group of you. Otherwise, you’ll have to brave the windowless smoking room at the back. With its two-seater sofas and dark corners, Fitcher’s Vogel is perfect for dates trying to find out if they have anything more in common than their love of whisky sours. Speaking of, they do a very good one here." - Olivia Ladanyi
