I wanted to check this place out per a NYT article's recommendations on things to do in Berlin…read more Unfortunately didn't make it far beyond the entrance as the bar was fairly full even on this Monday night. The bartender wasn't particularly welcoming, when I asked if I could sit at the bar, he pushed the reservation sign at the seat I was pointing at towards me from what I remember... point taken that yes there was a reservation sign but I just wanted to check since I wasn't sure... perhaps I was perceived as rude since I asked in English, or coz I wasn't local and didn't know, or may be that's in keeping with the vibe of the bar, no idea. Obviously can't comment on the drinks, but yep, there was no effort made to accommodate me, though I also didn't ask. Oh well, too bad.

A great cozy neighborhood bar in F'hain. The interior is decorated in a cool & somewhat whimsical…read morestyle with low light to create a very chill atmosphere. The loft is a perfect space for having drinks with a group of friends! The bartender was really friendly and helpful. They only had a few beer taps but had a good selection of bottles, as well as liquor, for very reasonable prices. The only downside about f.u.c. is that it is close to my flat so I will be tempted to go for a drink far too often. :)

We stopped by this bar one night in Berlin while looking for a cool place to hang out -- we were…read moredoing some bar hopping and this was our first stop. The bartender was super nice and welcoming, we chatted a bit about where we were from, had two whiskies, and sat outside on the benches they have. The atmosphere was really pleasant and relaxed. Definitely recommended!

Your bar might claim to rock hard. But does it rock "metal on the soundtrack, pool table in the…read moreback, and mead out of Viking horns" hard? This small bar may take some searching to find but if you appreciate a mix of all things heavy metal and a long list of beer, mead, and spirits...take the trek. Drinks are cheap (that horn of mead was €4.50, though I'm not sure what unit of measurement a ram's horn is), most beers run between €2.50-€4 for a half litre, and it's just a quick walk from the tram and the UBahn. Don't pass this one up \m/

Last time we were in Berlin, there was a Fucking Wall & it was crumbling…read more It fell while we were on tour. There were Metal Heads & Punk Rockers streaming into Austria. It was awesome to see people FREED. We're coming back next year to escape before the Wall going up in America is completed. The same people that build the Berlin Wall are very busy building a lot more walls everywhere. Between people. Between us and Life. LETHÅL GØSPEL is going to put out 4 more studio CD's and one Live one. And Tour until the World Melts or Raptures. The fuse is lit. The Worlds on Fire. ROCK like there's Not a Tomorrow on this planet. Because you're probably correct. AWWWWW!! Just ignore the Doom Parts- it's probably just my Dark SCÅNDINAVIAN BLOOD talking. Just Bang Yoyr Head and have some fun. I will be. -MATTX

This place has a five-star rating and without mistake. If you're looking for an upscale, stylish…read moreLaden where you can show off your latest Dior then give this place a miss. 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.

Wild at Heart was exactly what I was hoping for. A proper punk/dive bar. It delivered in spades…read more The decor was perfect, messy, dark, a little dank. The peeps were friendly in their own way. 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.
