This upscale cocktail bar is worth the visit. The entrance on the quiet street is not completely…read moreobvious and you have to ring the buzzer to get in. The interior is well designed, a little tight but quite comfortable. They have a small outside covered patio that can be used almost year around. The cocktails (the main reason for coming here) are very well made and somewhat unique. The selection of spirits is good for a small place. The list of ingredients for the varied selection of cocktails is impressive. Pros - well crafted cocktails, helpful and social staff, not too crowded, quiet enough for a conversation with your partner (or the people next to you), a nice mix of clientele with locals/visitors/younger/older all mixing well. There aren't really any cons - though 2 points that aren't exactly pros: 1. Prices are a touch high but should be expected with a small place serving high quality drinks 2. Sometimes they seem to be trying too hard. Some of the cocktails are a little overly complex One other point - there are several 1 star reviews on here mainly because they showed up with a group larger than 6 and were not allowed in. Seiberts is too small for large groups. The website clearly states no groups larger than 6 are allowed in - so if you show up with a large group you won't get in and it's your fault. Deal with it :-)

After exploring Cologne to the fullest, we were looking for a nightcap. Harry's New York Bar was on…read moremy list of the most reviewed (with a good rating) bars in Cologne (though you won't see as much Yelp activity in Germany compared to the States), and it was conveniently located to where we were at the time, so we stopped by for a drink half an hour before they closed. Ambiance (3.5/5): Harry's New York Bar is located in a hotel, though the bar has its own entrance, too. Think of it as an elegant hotel bar. Comfortable seating. Spacious. Along with a long bar which has some bar seating as well. So why not a higher rating for their ambiance? Well, this is pretty wild but there was a rat walking around while we were there. We told the bartender about it, but he didn't seem too concerned with the situation. I sure hope rats are not frequent guests here! Service (4/5): Outside of the rat situation, our bartender did a good job. Service in Europe doesn't tend to be terribly attentive, friendly, or efficient. And in Germany, they will often kick you out right when it's closing time. Not the case here. The bartender let us stay for a good while after they closed. Which I always appreciate. They even give you some snacks to munch on with your cocktail. That was a nice touch. Food (N/A): Outside of the complimentary snacks, we had dinner prior so I was on a liquid diet. Drinks (4.5/5): You would think that Harry's New York Bar is an American bar given the name. That's what I thought initially. I was wrong. Harry was a famous bartender in the U.K. who invented several famous cocktails. So that's what you should have here. They have a solid list of craft cocktails, many of them with an interesting blend of flavors and ingredients. I was happy with mine, though you will pay a premium here since it's a hotel bar. Harry's New York Bar has locations across the world. I was happy to check out my very first one in Cologne.

The decoration, colors and lighting are great & they compliment each other, that makes the feeling just right. You feel really comfortable and relaxed in here. The service is great, they know what they're doing and you get so many options that it's really hard to chose something. Besides that if you ask for a cocktail that's not on the Menu, you get also more suggestions. It's pricey but totally worth it. One funny thing i've noticed in the Yelp Cocktailtour, even if the place looks or is Classy, they don't really care about dress code, i guess it gets sorted out by the price range. So for me, that i don't wear a shirt & tie at work, it's pleasing to not have to come all dressed up to have a couple of drinks.

If you don't like gin, you'll be surprised and will most likely change your mind after visiting. Mr.Bartender can make any drink to your liking for your specific palette. I didn't take photos of every drink I had because after the first two, I got lost in the joy of simply enjoying the environment. You get sucked into a homie coziness that is merely addicting and that wasn't only because of the drinks or surroundings.. a lot of it had to do with the people there. People. How beautiful we are! Tons of locals, and a few visitors. The place is in a hole in the wall area, so stumbling upon this Bär was a great victory. If you're lucky, you can stumble upon the owners little pup "Gin". She is a sweetie but a little shy. Respectfully ask the owner before petting:) Hope to visit again. Thank you!

We have tried many "Mexican" restaurants in Germany and this is -- by far -- the best Mexican restaurant.

Casita Mexicana was an unexpected delight in Cologne with a nice vibe and a lively crowd. Cactus is a rarity on many menus in the U.S. but it was well-prepared and available in their dishes. This review is really 4.5 stars and only thing preventing the full 5 stars. Is the use of feta cheese instead of the Mexican cheeses. It gave more of an odd flavor than anything else. Overall, a fun and flavorful night.
