Reingold Bar

Behind an inconspicuous entrance on Novalisstraße lies the Reingold Bar, opened in 2007 and now managed by Raymund Peters, who started here as head bartender. Seventeen meters of mahogany counter, golden walls, and a shielded private club for up to fifty guests. Among Berlin's iconic scene bars, it stands for the sophisticated counterpart to a pub.

Reingold Bar: Hidden Cocktail Bar on Novalisstraße

Novalisstraße is a quiet side street north of Torstraße, a few minutes from Oranienburger Tor. From the outside, little indicates a bar, as Reingold Bar deliberately uses an inconspicuous entrance, following the idea of a speakeasy bar. Behind the door, the atmosphere completely changes: dark woods, golden wall surfaces, leather, and subdued lighting characterize the elongated room. The heart of the bar is a seventeen-meter-long mahogany counter where most guests sit, complemented by seating groups for parties. The establishment opened in 2007 and is now managed by Raymund Peters, who started here as head bartender.

Classics, Signature Drinks, and the Private Club

The menu features classic cocktails alongside the team’s own creations, and the bartenders visibly work on each individual drink, which means an evening here is more likely to be longer than shorter. In terms of price, the bar is in the upscale range; a visit, depending on the number of drinks, is significantly above the pub level of the neighborhood. At the far end of the room is the Private Club, a slightly elevated and shielded area for up to fifty guests with its own bar, velvet sofa corners, a dance floor including space for a DJ booth, and a separate access via a numerical code. It can be booked upon request, as can cocktail training for groups. The team also accepts reservations for the bar itself upon request.
