Le Croco Bleu is in a converted former Bötzow brewery in Prenzlauer Berg. The room is committed to a Wunderkammer aesthetic, vintage taxidermy, antique scientific instruments, leather banquettes, dim lighting, and the cocktail programme is serious.
The drinks are precise and the seasonal menu rotates four times yearly with thoughtful originals. The room itself is a destination, the building's brewery heritage and the curated decor make it one of the most photographed bars in Berlin.
The crowd is mid-thirties Prenzlauer Berg locals and visiting cocktail enthusiasts. Pair with Becketts Kopf in the same neighbourhood for a complete Prenzlauer Berg evening.
