Bar Scene

Berlin's bar scene is one of the best in Europe, deep, varied and open late. The bar scene runs from cocktail temples and natural wine spots to dive bars and hidden back rooms, each district with its own flavour. This tag collects Berlin locations for a good drink after dark.

Neukoelln and Kreuzberg lead for casual, crowded nights, while Mitte hides serious cocktail bars behind unmarked doors. Prenzlauer Berg leans towards wine and relaxed neighbourhood spots, and Friedrichshain keeps things loud and late. Many bars pour well past midnight, and the line between bar and club often blurs as the night goes on.
