Took a little bit of time but eventually they seemed to warm to me. One huge biker dude took a shine to me and kept joking with me all night in broken English. At the end of his night (which was quite early) he swooped in and gave me a kiss on the cheek and wished me a lovely vacation. The bathrooms were cleaner and nicer than the cobalt/funkys/astoria from my dives back home in Vancouver - seriously Vancouver, get your shit together - LITERALLY. Drink prices seemed super reasonable to me. But really anywhere in Europe they seem reasonable to me. Bartender didn't really know how to make a whiskey sour and what I ended up drinking wasn't that fantastic, but I think that's my fault, what the hell was I doing ordering a whiskey sour at this place? Beer seems to be the best bet. The place filled up quick and seemed very popular with the locals and tourists alike.

Grab a beer and enjoy great DJs, awesome bands and even a regular burlesque show! I had been told to go here by various people who had travelled there to perform with their bands and I'm glad I listened to their advice. The crowd were all great too, you felt really comfortable and among like-minded people. My favourite night in Berlin was the night I spent at Wild at Heart. GO. I urge you. One final tip - make sure to go next door and eat at Tiki Heart.

If you're looking for a rad place to knock back a few beers with friends and play a couple games of backgammon among other laid-back folk then you've found yourself a new home. Old-school Fhain keeping it real but beware, staff is selectively friendly. I.e. be cool to them and they'll be cool to you. Act like a w@nker and you'll get the same treatment in kind. Careful about your bags; if you go to see a show there don't be a victim and leave your backpack unattended. Nuff said. Taschendiebe aside, always always always worth a visit.

If you go to Supamolly you might feel as if you missed the spot because to get to the concert area…read moreyou have to go through a small bar at first. The door to the concert areal opens at about ten, but may vary. They have plenty of hallways, corners and steps to stride along after which you come into the first room, which is the bar kind of loungy area. All equipped with rather worn down sofas, quite trashy (Berlin style). Two small alleyways spit you onto the concert floor with the stage, where it usually gets loaded full and crammed. If you want it a bit quieter, make your way up the metal spiralstairs which lead to the bar and toilets. From here you also have a great view on the dancing crowd and on the stage. Grab a Club Mate vodka ! and let your eyes indulge in the artwork that has been scattered all over the place..paintings, statues..and the dj, which stands on a small platform only and uses digital equipment in his small cell to make the whole sound possible. The sound really can be anything, they have livebands ranging from jazz over hardcore to art-noise. Though they host ska bands mainly.Ocassionally they have a special Rattenbar called gayparty too, but anyone is welcome. Several times a year there is also a theatrefestival with a variety of artists showing what they can. Youll find yourself very likely in the position of seeing a band never thought could of existed before and then really liking them.Its alwayssmth special going on. Afterwards there are always Djs till real early in the mroning with all kinds of music styles(Drum n Bass, Jungle, Raggea,20s, Electro) Entrance fee is mostly 4EUR which is very cheap- the drinks are too. The people are very mixed, mostly 20to 40, but everything is possible. You know this feeling ofaaah why have guys like those have to hang out here I never had it when I was there, everyone is relaxed and there to have fun. One negative thing at times can be the toilets..but use the ones in the entrancebar and you should be fine. Oh and you can smoke..whatever In summer they have a campfire in the backyard.

After all the build up, it didn't disappoint! It's smaller than I expected, so even on a Monday night the dance floor was packed! I didn't make it out to the patio or side lounge, but I did dance my heart out of everything from The Cure, London after midnight, she past away, boy harsher, the Bolshoi... Classics from every decade represented! And wow... They make incredible Moscow mules, which is something I would have never expected! Maybe they were too good? I totally didn't plan to drink that many. *Lol* But going back to the crowd ... I loved the come as you are vibe -- the complete opposite of the gotther than thou snottery in Barcelona!

The bar staff were young and not too experienced, but to grab a drink before going to a club, this place is hard to beat.

Overall amazing spot, especially for tourists that aren't in large groups. I stayed way longer than I was expecting to.

Its nice if you get there earlier, as seating is harder to come by as the kids come rushing in. Not good for dancing and its hard to hear people talking...unless you are sitting.

Its nice around 23-24.

Lido is, without a doubt, one of my top favourite venues in all of Berlin. Everything - from its…read moresize, to its location, to the bands it books, to the overall light and sound - are wonderful. The layout is quite comfortable, with the standard bar in the back. Meanwhile, there is elevated seating on the side for those who want sit down but still take in the show. The entire room is incredibly spacious, even when the place is packed. The stage is also at a perfect level for taking photos, and the photography I do at this venue is always among my best, because the lighting is versatile and conducive to taking photos without flash. The back room, or smoking lounge, is a good place to take a break from all the people and the loud music, and the second bar there is advantageous. I guess my only complaint would be that it costs money to use the bathrooms... I understand and respect the idea of a bathroom attendant, but I can't think of any other venues who implement this. All in all, if you haven't been to Lido yet, check it out. I am almost certain you will find a musician playing or a themed-dance night that peaks your interest.
