Melbourne, 3000
www.berlinbar.com.au
Inspired by a city once divided and now reunited, Berlin is a very interesting and fun drinking experience. It starts when you climb up the stairs to knock on the solid metal door. The door is opened and you are shown to your seat inside.
The bar is divided into east and west Berlin. One being the lush capitalist opulence with lots of chandlers, artworks on the walls and soft music. The other side is like a communist army barracks with actual bunk beds, spray painted warning signs and camouflage netting on the roof.
Berlin is a cocktail bar and the bartenders do a great job in making the hits, as well as concoctions of their own like the love parade. The old fashion i had here made by my mate Ben was fantastic and i just loved the atmosphere in this bar. It's not the sort of place you go to dance or really party but if you want to show some friends a bar in Melbourne like none other, this is it.
