Bar, Cafe, Pub Grub

There’s nothing like a cosy bar with a view, and Klunkerkranich bar, atop the Neukölln Arcadian, has one of the best views around.

Enjoy a cosy movie date

Berlin is filled with amazing, unique and arty cinemas or kinos. In the chill of winter, they offer the perfect refuge for a classic date-night favourite of catching the latest flick and enjoying some salty popcorn and beer.
