When the temperatures rise, we are somehow magically drawn to the water. At this point, please, a flourish for the many bodies of water in Berlin, where we can relax in summer. Bathing in the Spree, on the Maybachufer or in the Lietzensee is not recommended in this case, so a cool drink is needed to refresh us. How good that you are provided with enough beer, wine and cocktails at these 11 restaurants and bars.
Sip coffee or long drinks in the bar on the bank
At the beginning of 2020, the fun in the Griessmuehle was over : The area on Sonnenallee was sold and the club had to close. Fortunately, a new location has now been found in the south-east area in Niederschöneweide. Even before the closure, the operators had planned to open a new bar on the Kiehlufer: And here it is! In the BAU – Bar on the shore, there is coffee and cake, small snacks, draft beer, wine and long drinks from morning to night, which you can enjoy inside in an industrial atmosphere or outside at the tables in the sun.
