Usually my expectations on service are low in Germany (usually not bad but not as customer oriented…read moreas I would like to see) but at Balke they really managed to be really horrible. We came here in a Saturday evening when it was at most half-full. We places our cocktail orders and then waited, after 10 minutes when others who ordered after us got their cocktails (we ordered slightly more complex ones so we only saw gin tonics and run and coke delivered) we asked the waitress- response was just "I know, wait". Another 10 minutes went by and we once again asked and now were told they forgot - no apology just stating they forgot and that they would be straight up. Still no apology and then another 10 minutes had gone and we could see more cocktails being delivered to guests arriving after us. When we asked again they had not even started making the cocktails - so 30 mins or so wasted and no cocktails. Clearly no structure and to be a place that pretends to be into cocktails they just make simple stuff (they where only serving glasses of gin or rum and let the guests mix it tonic or coke themselves). We told them we were leaving - again no apology. Would not come back even if paid to.

You step toward the back cigar room and the door opens automatically revealing an equally classy room with leather chairs, ashtrays and lots of cigar smoke. There is a walk in humidor, tons of single malt scotch and an air of pure downright bitcheness (It's a word, look it up).

Our table ordered 5 drinks and 1 still water; 2 of 5 drinks were dirty martinis but got regular martinis (the drinks were water clear). One of us also ordered still water but they brought sparkling water instead. The martinis were good just got the orders wrong. Nice and chill ambiance. Also, the fries were delicious. This is inside the hotel Kö 59. The next day we gave it a second try since there was life band playing. Same, the dirty martini came out to be a vesper martini. Maybe Germans don't drink dirty martini? After I asked them, they tried to make a dirty martini with olive and still didn't taste right. Perhaps their olives juices are different ‍

The cocktail menu is off the beaten path and offers many interesting discoveries. While they do not fall under the inexpensive category they are well worth it.
