Bar 3

Well, it’s definitely nice and perhaps one of the hip places. For me, the music was a tad bit too loud. It was difficult having a conversation. Generally, good relaxing vibe though. And unconventionally designed bar area.

This Friday I had one of the most horrible bar experiences of my life. I was there with 2 girlfriends and we all gave money to my partner to get us drinks. We were all standing at the bar and saw the waiter take our money. We ordered 2 apple juices and a small beer and he even gave my partner change back. After giving us the apple juices my partner asked for the beer and the bartender started to yell at him that he didn’t gave any money and that he already gave us the apple juices for free. He was extremely aggressive and telling us to leave the bar. There was no room for us to try to talk to him because he would immediately start to scream at us. We were all shaken up from the situation and felt extremely frustrated that this person was acting this way and basically stealing our money. I can understand it gets stressful on a busy night but this was absolutely out of line. The bartender had long dark hair and a beard. Because of this horrible aggressive character we are not coming back! Also the other bartender did not want to help us. Crazy experience.

Great little place - not overly touristy but welcoming even if you’re not local. Dark and relaxed atmosphere where you can listen to their music as well as have nice conversations. If you don’t like passive smoking then you might not enjoy it but otherwise very enjoyable.

Kölsch on tap and Helles by the bottle. Gets pretty busy on weekends around 10-11pm

The bar tender are so unfriendly got this guy with small moustache, avoid this guy !

It’s a place to enjoy vibrant conversations with a creative crowd over a drink or two!

TLDR: Stuck-up bartenders, really smoky. The most “Berlin Mitte” (not in a good way) place I’ve ever visited. They don’t serve cocktails, they serve mixed drinks, shots and beer. Main complaint: Totally hypocritical to have rude service in a historically considered safe-space/artist-haven. Details: Bartender was very patronizing and judgmental to my friend who politely asked if we could pay with card before placing an order. He became irate when they asked “kann man bei ihnen” instead of “kann man bei dir mit karte zahlen” (a bar is a businesses, a group of people, yea? more than the guy serving the drinks, no?). He scoffed and rolled his eyes at them, oh how terrible to have been “sietzt” 😂 then chose to ignore everyone in the friend group until finally one of us had waited for over 15 minutes. Edit: Apparently the guys name is Mark or something…? Ok he was playing music and working by himself, ok maybe he was stressed, but honestly I’ve done his job before. It is not that hard. Wow you hit play on a downtempo HipHop playlist in DE? Not impressive. Final note: The bar has a very limited menu and allows smoking indoors (not untypical for Berlin, but still worth complaining about because it really kills the vibe, is incredibly unhealthy, and also ILLEGAL in Germany). Hope the owners see this and stop allowing smoking indoors, hire at least a bar back so the poor bar tender can chill a bit more and not have to run around picking up empty glasses and bottles. Maybe then he’ll be kinder when someone tries to ask a very normal question.

An extremely rude barman caused a scene and started yelling to my friends (some of them German) to go back to their country! Such a toxic behavior is unacceptable.
