Volksbar

Opposite the Volksbühne, Volksbar operates a screen of approximately 24 square meters, the largest a Berlin pub offers for the Sunday crime show. Around fifty guests can fit in front of it, and there are cocktails, draft beer, and a foosball table in the basement. If you want to watch Tatort here, you should arrive half an hour before the film.

Volksbar: Sunday Crime Show on a 24 Square Meter Screen

Volksbar is located in Mitte directly opposite the Volksbühne, just a few steps from the Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz subway station. From the outside, the place looks unassuming, but inside, guests can expect a mix of café, bar, and gallery with an indoor area, lounge corner, and outdoor seating. The interior is deliberately eclectic: garden gnomes stand between retro lampshades, and a foosball table awaits in the basement.

The reason why Volksbar has a name among Tatort fans hangs on the wall. The screen measures approximately 24 square meters, making it the largest a Berlin pub has to offer. Around fifty guests watch the Sunday crime show here, so it gets quite crowded shortly before the start. The team asks guests to arrive at least half an hour before the film, otherwise, only seats with poor visibility will remain.

Cocktails, Snacks, and DJs After the Credits

The menu remains manageable and suits the evening: cocktails, draft beer, and small snacks that can be eaten casually without taking your eyes off the screen. In terms of price, a visit is in the lower double-digit range, making the bar one of the more affordable addresses around Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz.

When the case is solved, the room rarely empties immediately, as DJs regularly take over on weekends, with a spectrum ranging from swing to indie. In between, the program features comedy nights and changing exhibitions, which take the gallery part of the house seriously. So after the credits, there’s usually still a reason to stay, and the audience mixes with that of the late shift.
