Best Bars in Kreuzberg, Berlin
Dive bars, listening rooms, kebab-kiosk bars — the most concentrated bar neighbourhood in Berlin.
Kreuzberg is what people mean when they say 'Berlin nightlife'. The streets between Görlitzer Park and Kottbusser Tor still have the densest concentration of bars in the city — and the cheapest. Cocktails are €10, beers are €4, and the bar your friend told you about is probably still there.
Eight Kreuzberg picks ranked the way locals walk it on a Saturday.
