    The cocktails are amazing, as is the staff. The decision tree of booze is a delight, but those tending bar make your cocktail choice even better. The perfect place to try something new!

    The menu alone (with its flavour diagram) is worth coming for to get a reference for how to understand cocktails. Bartenders clearly have passion, and are totally welcoming -- worth seeking out

    Most likely some of the best cocktails in Berlin. At the same time, far away from the standard of the best cocktail bars in London. Brandy-based cocktails were all amazing.

    I read they would have the best cocktails here and I have to admit - they do know what they are doing. Just from the looks of it you wiuldn't expect that kind of quality drink-wise but it's cool. 😊

    Cosy and speakeasy place to enjoy some of the best cocktails in city. Mixing not many ingredients without ice in some of the best recipes! Use some help from the helpful stuff!

    A seasonal menu of original cocktails and solid classics, great staff who are wonderfully helpful, and an awesome chill vibe inside. This is definitely one of the best cocktail bars in Berlin.

    My favourite bar in Berlin. Their menu with a clever grid is brilliant. Also, you can simply tell them what kind of flavours you like and they’ll mix a custom drink.

    Great menu categorized by base liquor and taste, a lot nice and tasty cocktails! Be quite, if you go outside for a cigarette, let's say, cause they have pretty sensitive neighbours😉

    Usually packed with tons of people on the weekends but the bartenders are super nice and know their cocktails. Located in a trendy area off the beaten path it's a nice place to grab a sidecar.

    Great cocktails. Ask the bartenders for recommendations, they always can make you something off the menu, just tell them what you like.

    Amazing cocktails, true mixologists at this place. Give them a description of what your looking for and let them do their magic.

    Small and quiet bar with some great cocktails. They're prepared very carefully and the results are incredible. The menu won't tell you, but the drinks cost 8€ each and they also have beers.

    A speakeasy that thrives on great drinks and engaging bartenders. Everyone knows everyone. Low music, more conversation. Basic interiors focused on the drinks. Highly recommended.

    Really, really good beverages. And free water, which is kind of nice. It's a quiet, smoke-free place. The bartenders are friendly and helpful.

    This trendy cocktail bar features a unique menu with two axis: choose your liquor, then your sweetness preferences. Two or three delicious options await you.

    The cocktails are good. You can order a cocktail you know or go for the menu where the cocktails are listed as matrix by alcohol and taste. Genius!

    Good cocktail bar, some outdoor seating (quiet street) good service, good crowd, though relaxed 30+ clientele. Offer aged cocktails and taste to order drinks

    This is a place for the whole evening. Ideal for a small group or a double date. Ask for pickles they are the best.

    Possibly the best cocktails in Berlin. The menu changes consistently but consult the matrix of base spirit & sweetness, it's accurate.

    Very good cocktails, genius menu and smoke free. On the downside the atmosphere is not exactly spectacular and it can become very noisy.

    When you want a nice cocktail, experience a great service and are around Rosenthaler Platz, this is the place to be.

    Solid cocktails and some craft beers (including some Heiden Peters). And a giant chunk of Californian redwood for a bar.

    If this is the best bar in Berlin - don’t drink in Berlin, better come to Kyiv! No atmosphere, no good cocktails. No egg white in a bar, seriously?!!

    Great cocktails. Calm and empty place with great music before 9.30pm; then full but still great. Smokefree.

    Very small bar, but if you want to try some new and exotic cocktails or just classic one - it would be good place for such evening

    You can basically pick everything from the card. A classic one would be a negroni. Otherwise ask about the barreled ones.
