I'd pretty much given up hope of finding a decent cocktail in this city until I got a tip to give…read morethis place a try. Located upstairs in the Melia Innside Hotel, on a side street off of Neumarkt in the Altstadt, it's not the kind of place you'd just stumble upon. If you can manage to find it though, you'll be glad you did. The space is small and cozy, with a surprise view of the Frauenkirche (well, the top of it at least), which makes it a great spot to settle in as the sun goes down. The decor is a little dated, but it's dark and usually busy enough that you don't notice much anyways. In some ways, it's a reflection of one of the things I like most about this city. Enjoyment of restaurants, bars, and nightlife is not solely the domain of "the beautiful people". There are so many places in larger cities where you might feel out of place if you aren't dressed a certain way or have a certain "look." Here, you can raise a glass with locals, tourists, students, young professionals, retirees, business travelers, opera patrons, those out for a hot night on the town, and everyone in between. But what about the drinks? I haven't tried every drink in this place, but from what I've experienced, there should be something for everyone and every mood. If you've got something specific in your mind, staff will be happy to make it for you or create something based on what you're feeling like. The drinks on the menu offer something for everyone though. If you're looking to stay fairly classic, the Manhattan, Sazeroni, and Sazerac Cocktail are all solid choices. The Point of View, Greek Manhattan, Barrel-Aged Sloe Gin Negroni, and Royal Bermuda Yacht Club Cocktail are a bit lighter, but interesting enough to keep you sipping in order to figure out their exact ingredients--no cheating by looking in the menu! The Gin Basil Smash, Honey Thyme Sour, Hib & Rita and classic Cosmopolitan are all great starting points for anyone feeling less adventurous or who isn't quite sure what they are looking for in a drink. The Peche gehabt, Creme Brulee Martini, and Plums (not something I'd typically order, but perfect on a chilly fall or winter evening) are a great choice if you're regretting not having ordered dessert earlier. For a little light-hearted fun, try ordering the Belle, Book, & Candle, or Popp it! If cocktails aren't your thing, you can of course order beer or wine. There's also the nice touch of complimentary lightly infused water and wasabi peanut mix. I haven't ordered food, but I think there are some limited offerings that can be sent up from one of the restaurants in the hotel. Just a note to those who are smoke sensitive (or smokers): around 11pm or so, smoking is allowed. It's possible that this has changed or will change, but thought I'd mention it since it's a dealbreaker for some.

We both agreed these were the best cocktails we had in Dresden or Berlin. I had their take on a negroni, which was fantastic. Mom had the Nude in Spice which was a wonderful adventure of flavors. Michael, the bar manager, was so lovely, explaining the different drinks and even making me an off menu cocktail called Naked and Famous that I loved.

We somehow ended up trying almost everything on the menu. Some standouts to me were the lapsang (Smokey tea drink), the edible Negroni which was a Negroni with deconstructed elements that you can mix and match which was really interesting, and the martini was great as well. They had some really interesting gins there. One of the gins I tried was some Estonia which was pretty cool. She made my martini with a Finnish gin which I have had many times and is a really good one. The sauerkraut drink and the coffee drink were really interesting. Not sure if the coffee drink worked and I think I prefer a different liquor like vodka or tequila for an espresso martini. The sauerkraut was kind of funky and a bit weird as well. But it is a nod to Germany so I liked how they had that on the menu. Free popcorn all night with a nice curry flavor spice on it. This was a pretty expensive bar but a nice option if you're going out. Also, apparently a reservation is recommended but we were able to get seats at the bar. We were supposed to leave at 9:30 but they were able to seat the other group somewhere else so we could stay at our seats which was pretty nice. The bathroom is in the hotel, but are doing renovations so you have to ask for a keycard to go up to the fifth floor to use the bathroom there. A bit inconvenient but the place is super nice so it's not that bad.

Interestingly…read moremany guests take this serious and came quiet nicely dressed up; also the bar staff fittet the theme well. Overall a nice place and good mood, music was more-or-less-rockabilly then, always accompanied by the matching 60s to 90s videos on screen :D Nice central large bar. I wasn't so amused when I found out they charge more than what is shown in the drink list. Mentioning "hey, this drink is 4,90 in the list" was answered with a sulky "and it's 5,10 on the cash register". I doubt that this was part of the "Rock" theme and thus considered it to be "not my service level" then :-/ Kicker tables etc. are available, and so are (a bit more silent) separees, so overall: yeah, you can go there. Just I probably wouldn't go a second time...

Tried all the beer on tap- they were all great and priced well. The bartender was very friendly and so were the other patrons.

Would definitely come back here again.

They took some effort with the decoration but the club got so packed that you couldn't really enjoy it. Packed, super hot (it is located underground with two dancefloors) and loud (the bass ringing in your ears painfully at times), it sometimes took ages to get to the bathroom or a drink. Music-wise, young people seemed to enjoy it, our group (early 30s) thought it was so-so with the DJs clearly overcompensating for something changing songs every 20 seconds ;-) Might give it another try some time.
