Prenzlauer Berg
Past Samuel Beckett's portrait, the art of cocktail-making is taken very seriously. Settle into a heavy armchair in the warmly lit lounge and take your sweet time perusing the extensive – and poetic – drinks menu. All the classics are accounted for, of course, but it's the seasonal special concoctions that truly stimulate the senses.
Reservations recommended as there is no standing allowed.
