ŒLGARTEN

Hidden on Lohmühleninsel at Schleusenufer, the ŒLGARTEN combines a beer garden under old trees with a marble bar and club area, from after-work drinks until deep into the night.
ŒLGARTEN: a Kiezgarten with club nights
The ŒLGARTEN is hidden on Lohmühleninsel at Schleusenufer in Kreuzberg, a few steps from the water. From late afternoon, the garden opens, and what begins as a relaxed after-work gathering under trees seamlessly transitions into a club night on many evenings.
Old brick walls, dense ivy, and the tree population of a former industrial courtyard form the backdrop. Guests sit at long tables in semi-shade, enjoying draft beer, wine, and drinks, accompanied by curated music that remains subtle in the early evening and becomes distinctly more house-oriented later.
Kitchen, Marble Bar, and Club Operations
The menu goes beyond the usual beer garden snack. Sandwiches, pickled vegetables, potato salad, warm sandwiches, and sausages with pretzels vary seasonally. Pricewise, a visit costs between 10 and 20 Euros per person.
In the evening hours, the marble bar and the connected club area open. The audience is mixed, the venue explicitly identifies as queer-friendly, and the open-air series in summer are among the events that attract guests from other districts.
