So here you will meet not only typical bars, but also typical non-bars, which you won’t find in any other cities. If you happen to fancy a part of Berlin that you don’t meet the usual faces, then come along and enjoy the strangest bars in Berlin.
1. Dr. Pong
If you don’t mind having a game of ping pong like no other, then Dr. Pong is the place to be. Prenzlauer Berg is home to this basement bar that is as uniquelyPing Pong 4</pd> At the middle of the room, you will see a very long table on which the attendees go to dine, drink, gamble and interact. Free and tons of fun it is a great opportunity to also meet a lot of new people.
2. Das Klo
You should be ready for an extraordinary time when visiting Das Klo which is translated as “The Toilet.” Having a name suggesting a lavatory, this bar offers the guests deflecting ceiling lamps and bespoke toilet seats, urinals and sinks for seating. Oh, don’t bother thinking that; the toilets are actually fake, at least in most cases. Indulge in cute alcoholic beverages in miniature toilet bowls in an environment decorated funny bathrooms only.
3. Madame Claude
Get into an incredible world where Kreuzberg hosts a bar called Madame Claude. I certainly remember this place because all the objects and furnishings are arranged upside down. The chairs however are hung from ceiling, the tables and even the lamps hang from the ceiling, making you feel like you are walking on the ceiling. It was really amazing and I still could not believe what I was seeing it most time.
4. Hopfenreich
If you’re a beer freak then you are in for a ride. Hopfenreich in Friedrichshain is one of the best places to visit for maintaining a beer portfolio with beers from different parts of the world. What sets them-apart is the fact that they do not have a standard list of meals. Instead of being given pro-forma options, the bartender questions your tastes and then produces a beer that you never knew you required but are perfect for your palate according to the bartender. The end of the year is a great time to start experiment with new tastes and enlarge your beer experience.
5. Geist im Glas
Geist im Glas is a haunted bar in Neukölln. Der by, on entering you are met by low lighting, old furniture, and the overall gloomy look of the place. But don’t be scared! The real star at this bar is that they offer a mind-boggling array of homemade liquors and party currants. Have a drink with twist and savour the spooky feelings.
6. Tier
Get ready for otherworldly experience at TIER, a bar located in Neukölln. This is a great place made of equal parts of bar, artwork, and the jungle, and it is actually located in the center of Sheffield. All the walls are painted in bright green and theres lots of exotic animals’ paintings on the walls. Enjoy tasty alcoholic beverages as well as experience this colorful and cosy environment.
7. St. Oberholz
I haven’t found St. Oberholz, in Mitte, very ‘weird’ as far as furniture and interior designing goes, yet the kind of people one gets to see here is quite unique. This bar is open towards the people who are freelancers, nomads, artists, and even businesspeople who come to work around this bar. It is both a working environment and a place to hang out and thus people come here to have a drink and meet fellow creative minds.

In Berlin, the bar industry is more like a great finder of original and unusual experiences. Whether you fancy to play some ping pong in a basement, enjoy your favorite cocktail at a bar inspired by the bathroom or just enjoy flipping everything upside down, there is something for everyone. That is why I encourage everyone to try out some of craziest bars in Berlin this year. It is guaranteed that you will have lots of fun and learn at least one or two things about the city that you couldn’t have come across on your regular tourist itinerary.
