4. Madame Claude
Madame Claude
Madame Claude is a trendy yet unpretentious joint that takes manifesting a concept to a whole new level. The bar itself feels drunk, which makes it fun to navigate. Is it the art of feng shui, or are the drinks too strong? It’s not the booze, it’s the décor — tables indelible to the ceiling and furniture turned upside down give this place an extra dose of hyper funk, which it already has plenty of. This topsy-turvy bar with inexpensive drinks holds its own on the live music scene, as well, offering a variety of shows throughout the week. The ambiance of the bar is moody and dark, which is fitting for the vibe.

10. Barbie Deinhoff's
Bar, Pub, Pub Grub, Beer, Wine, Cocktails, German
A Berlin institution, Barbie Deinhoff’s marries uber-eclecticism and outlandish fun into one queer-friendly dance bar. It doesn’t fit into one category. It’s a bar that happens in stages: first drinking then dancing, as if one could ever exist without the other. This truly funky bar carries an aesthetic ostentation without being too over-the-top. The gregarious staff serves killer cocktails with a smile. The owner is performance artist Lena Braun, which explains the heterogeneity in events. This kitschy, multifaceted legacy directly caters to the cross-dressing crowd and the LGBT community but invites everyone for a fun, properly hydrated night out.
