Great vibe in the heart of Berlin! This bar takes you back in time with the decor: the main attraction, the oval bar, gives off that 60s vibe. Marble like walls and stairs to another bar in the second floor adds to the flare. The menu consists of classic drinks and specialty drinks. Plus a wide range of wines can be had. There is a drink for everyone. One of my favorites was the Pornstar cocktail that was made with fresh guava. Plus offered with a side of champagne. The champagne balanced the sweetness. We had great service by the bartenders at the bar. Appreciate the excellent service and drinks. read more

I had the best Vanilla Martini here. This is a great bar to checkout in the heart of Berlin. A mature crowd, they played good music and fantastic drinks. read more

Over rated. It is good, not great. Cocktails were just ok. We expected more from such a highly rated bar. The Helmut Newton photos on the wall are indeed provocative. read more

Great spot in the middle of Berlin. A classic cocktail bar. Throwback to an old cocktail bar from the 60s. Love it here!

Food ok Drinks good but hard to get Service, it was super packed so tough to be good at service. Ambiance is cool Lots of Helmut Newton photos on was which as one may know are mostly nudes Must see Take a look. read more

Robert was excellent. So funny so great!!! Great drinks great ambiance. Deff a great place to come with friends

Had a very tasty dark&stormy, but the service was really slow. Nice place though. Heat lamps outside and cosy sofa seating.

Good cocktails and nice selection , albeit a little expensive for what it is. When you are charging 15 Euros per glass it would be nice to at least offer some peanuts .. but the service is great. read more

The location of this bar is excellent and has some outdoor seating. The bar tenders are quite ok and helpful. They did however ignore us a lot and this seems to be a recurring theme in Berlin ;-) The drinks are quite ok and all the people in my group seemed to enjoy themselves. The prices are a bit steep, and value for money is a bit light on. I would probably come back here as the location is good and the service is quite ok. read more

Came here after dinner on a Saturday night in Berlin. Grabbed one of the last tables which was outside. It was pretty chilly but the heaters were on & they provide fleeces to keep the chill away while you try their drinks. It's table service and service was a little slow but that wasn't a problem. We had a great spot sitting outside as it is a great place to people watch. I tried a cosmopolitan & a Passionfruit cosmopolitan. Both were really nice, didn't seem that strong either! Seemed like quite a "cool" crowd that night but all in all there was a v nice vibe to the place. read more

A chic drinks stop after a hard day's work - chosen so that we could bask in the glorious early evening sunshine. It has views onto Gendarmenmarkt but it was nice to sit outside on the sofa seating and people watch the mostly well-heeled and businessy crowd. I soon gathered from the risqué pics inside that this place isn't dedicated to the Newton I'm more familiar with (i.e. it's for the photographer not the apple guy!). Our model-good-looking waitress took good care of us; I opted for a refreshing glass of chardonnay this time, but their single malt selection looked quite impressive - something for next time! read more

Newton Bar - summer breeze, makes me feel fiiiine - Bars Near Me - Berlin, BE

A nice Cocktail bar in a posh area with an international clientele and open design. This is not your beer bar, this is not your cheapest spot, but their drink menu is very comprehensive with a polite and professional staff to make your night happen. You get what you pay for, which, in this place means q-u-a-l-i-t-y! read more

What can you expect from a bar that can be found in every single guide of Berlin and is consistently described as a classic, a glamour temple, the place to see and be seen? Exactly. The Newton bar is a place for tourists to see other tourists and to be seen by their fellow natives. It's staff is reputed to be disagreeable, but I actually found them quite friendly, if not overly attentive. They probably have a hard time coming to terms with working in the gastronomy equivalent of Checkpoint Charlie and I believe that they are doing fine, avoiding becoming a caricature of themselves. I went there for a dinner replacing cocktail after an especially long workday and enjoyed sitting quietly and undisturbed, browsing through the impressive whiskey list and being served proper cocktails. They were not cheap, but I always marvel at people who go to bars to experience what the high class (of tourists) is doing and are then surprised that part of what it is doing is spending money on pricey items, drinks in this case. All added, I was going for four stars, or at least enthusiastic three, and I have decided on two after the very last experience I had at this bar: a visit to the ladies room. I am not sure the German public toilet dragon features in as many guide books as the Newton Bar, but mostly she is a lady of considerable age that sits in front of a plate of coins in public restrooms and, more or less discretely, indicates that you should pay to use them. Stations, shopping centres and other public places often sport these ladies and I mostly run into them when I left everything I owned with someone else because I just wanted to go to the restroom and, in my brain, that does not require change. But they do keep bathrooms clean, although it could be argued that other countries manage the same (and often better) without charging you for it. This much said, I had NEVER before encountered a toilet dragon lady in a bar or restaurant. And I certainly did not expect to pay for using the toilet when I had paid for a real expensive cocktail already. It was not the 50 cents, or the dragon lady as such (although she seemed a little out of place), more the idea behind it, what it means about the service they want to provide and what they think you should be entitled to as their client. A bit like paying for a train fare and then extra two euros for actually being sure of getting a seat, another German classic - it is not that you think the seat is the service and what you primarily paid for, but you sort of expect not to stand. read more

My boyfriend and I visited this bar last Wednesday, October 13th. There was one woman managing the entire bar at 5pm. She had absolutely no peripheral vision and would not acknowledge patrons coming in the door who were waiting patiently for some service. My boyfriend and I waited 15 minutes to order a beer and finally got up and left. This place definitely needs to improve its service. read more

Chic bar near the theater district and other trendy restaurants in the mitte area. Plenty of seating outdoors and indoors. Very trendy vibe and the drinks came out super fast but there wasn't any thing special about the menu or the cocktails. read more

Eek! Waiter/bartender is exceptionally rude and unwelcoming. Came here on New Years' Day with the wife. Sat down at the bar. Was ignored for 20 minutes, so we left (note that I can't comment on the quality of the drinks, but can tell you they're extremely expensive - about 12 eur each). During our 20-minute wait, we observed: 1) the waiter telling off a customer for attempting to order at the bar ("we have table service. sit down.") 2) the waiter ridiculing a person for calling to check if the bar was open ("yes i picked up, we must be open") 3) the waiter greeting 2 customers with "no, get out, we're closing soon" (only for about 12 more customers to wander in the door without a similar 'greeting' over the next 10 minutes?). 4) the waiter slamming bottles and glasses like a petulant child. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

There are three considerable reasons to visit the Newton Bar: 1. You parked your Bentley right in front of the door and you have to keep an eye on it. 2. You checked in at the Hilton, you have no idea where to go and the hotel bar is closed. 3. You work there. It is possible to help you if case 1. or 2. applies. The parking lot in the Quartier 207 is opened 24/7 and has video surveillance. From there it is a 2 minutes walk to the Nö in the Glinkastraße. If you came, however, to the Newton Bar to see the great pictures from Helmut Newton's series Big Nudes you'd rather take an hour off the next day and visit the Newton museum in the Jebensstraße next to Zoo Station. When I came from the office at night lately, two remarkably blonde women crossed my way. They possessed fully developd secondary sexual characteristics and a slightly slavic accent. They looked somehow quite, er, professional. And they asked me the way to the Newton Bar. I thought so. read more

Stylishly decorated and with an excellent cocktail list. Sitting outside on a summer evening is a very pleasant way to while away a few hours. It's not as Newton themed as the name suggests. Granted, there are several of his photos taking up entire walls but it doesn't milk the concept beyond that. read more

After a long trek across Berlin I arrived at the Newton bar and found in to be completely packed and loud. This was off putting but I decided to use the toilet before I left, which was upstairs. I realised that there was another room up there that was serene and relaxed. After finding a table by the window we ordered some glasses of sekt and really relaxed. The barman was very friendly and out drinks reasonable. I will most likely go again on my next visit. read more

I was a little disappointed or maybe may expectations were to high...!!! The bar has a lot a potential, great location, love the indoor seating area and the big windows. The out seating area is pretty good as well. It' pretty sad that bartenders spend so much time talking between themselves... drinks were ok (Mathai and Apple Martini), maybe a little pricy... I went there on a summer Sunday around 17:00 and it was pretty empty so i can not really say much about the atmosphere however it looks more like banking type crowd. Maybe I will go again to give them another try but honestly i though it was going to be better...!!! read more

Been there twice and having lots of fun!! People are from all over the world. Waiters pay attention to all your needs..credit cards no problemo either. Beers are good as well as their cold champagne as well as their Riesling white wine. Crowd is a mixture of locals, tourists and business types. Music is not to loud and sort of clubbing style.. read more

Newton Bar - Bars Near Me - Berlin, BE

Came here as it was the only open place nearby. Not thad bad overall but wouldn't come back. The place smells like cigarette and it's a bit untidy. Despite the relatively expensive prices for drinks a gypsy lady still collects money at the toilets. Waiters are not exceptionally kind and you can be ignored for quite a time. read more

Stopped in for afternoon drinks. Upscale vibe. Attentive service. Tried the Strawberry Dream. Think of a milkshake with alcohol, but not as heavy. It was really too sweet for me, but drank it down just as quickly. Riesling afterwards was a delight. Friends ordered Bloody Mary and Moscow Mule. Not a kid-friendly bar due to art featuring naked women. read more

Expensive. Very, very expensive. The cocktails were great, although do not expect them to be the same as they are in the US, or other countries. They are really good in terms of service, unlike other reviews have stated here. Especially since we were there on Christmas Eve. I would highly recommend this place if you enjoy a relaxed atmosphere and really great drinks. I would not recommend this bar if you are on any type of tight budget, as their drinks are 10 to 13 euros each. read more

Terrible bar, pretentious. Not really a cocktail bar, bar tenders clearly do not know what they are doing. One of the worse old fashioned I ever had. read more

If the service would always be professional and kind, I would have given it five stars. On the other hand, it is the ideal place to go for drinks. Expansive but very generous cocktails, plus there is a large variety of them. Again, please, try to improve your service! read more

Expensive drinks. 10-12 euro each. And they still charge you .50euro to use washroom. Looked like there is lots of high price talent (aka, escorts) hanging around the bar. Upscale place for businessmen. read more

A better than average cocktail bar that gets busy. There is seating outside and some blankets to keep warm. A tad pricey but given the location no surprise. Service can be slow. read more

Love it here. Cool, expat hangout that I've been going to for years. Never disappointing.

Great place for groups small and large to have a drink or two. Lots of locals here and the staff are lovely and very helpful. It's close to the heart of Berlin. Excellent service. On the day it was evening and quite cold for October but they kept the area warm with blankets if you needed them. read more

Always good vibes. Very good location close to Gendarmen Markt. Quite a good selection of single malts. Jazz and blues in the background. A good place on a cold Monday night. read more

Attentive bar staff and the cocktails just kept flowing Liked the outside space with blankets to cosy up under when it gets a bit chilly. Newton Bar named after Helmut Newton and is beautifully decorated inside with Helmut Newton nudes. If the bar gives you a taster for Newton you can visit the Newton Photography museum the next day read more

Actually a really nice bar with comfortable seating and bar area. Upstairs, there is a smoker's lounge. Drinks are well mixed and the staff are fairly attentive. What I disliked about this place is the clientel. Definitely a place way beyond its prime. Weird mix of people, either trying to be someone or hanging on to the thought that they used to be someone. Very few seemed to pull it off in either case. As I prefer to just relax at a bar, have a couple good drinks and not worry about what people think of me, this isn't the place for me. I felt quite uncomfortable in the place and it just had a bad vibe, although like I said, I can't fault the location, interior or drinks. Check it out and find out for yourself whether this is your style or not. read more

Nice bar very good bar staff if you sit at the bar .The waitress however was a miserable person who seems to take no joy in her job ..for drinks the price of these I would like them to arrive with pleasure . read more

Hip bar...and reasonable priced. Close to Leipzig strasse and check point Charlie. Recommended for those staying in this neighborhood.

So far so good and probably the nicest bar I found so far it's walking distance from the mall of Berlin beer is good they only serve German beer called krombacher :) it's good ! The place only get 4 stars not because of anything but the general German attitude which is cold and polite you give them some time and they do defrost :) read more

Very cool atmosphere. Can get crowded quickly but great place for people watching.

I loved this bar because its classy chic environment, cool people, trendy comfortable room and professional bar tenders. The DJ was cool, the music was ok, but can be a bit better perhaps they can try something more trendy. Absolutely good selection of cocktails and international spirits! Fair value between the quality of the drinks, the environment and what you pay. This place is in my favorite list, definitively I recommend it! Super positive experience! Loooved it read more

This is an upscale bar/restaurant. We went just for drinks, but have to say we were pretty happy. Definitely get the vibe that this is a bar for bankers and such after work. read more

The "Selector" aka bouncer would not let us in because we were not old or professional enough looking. We are 28, dressed nicely in skirts and blouses and staying next door at the Hilton. Oh yes, and our Euros work just like everyone else's. give a bar your business who appreciates it read more
