Hi,

 

Bit of a long shot, but thought I'd ask.

 

I'm turning 30 in a couple of weeks. So my mates & I are planning on going to Berlin to party away. 

 

We enjoy the usual things, steak dinner, good food, booze and house/techno music. If anyone lives near Berlin or has been there already can you help me please with:

 

  • Which is a good vibrant young area to stay?
  • Should we get a hotel or rent out a big house (there will be around 8-10 of us)
  • Which restaurants do you recommend?
  • Which bars do you recommend?
  • Which clubs do you recommend?
  • Is there anything else we should definitely do while in Berlin?

Cheers!

I went in April last year on a stag wknd and it was straight carnage,ill be honest I don't remember a great deal about it apart from how good berliner lager is and a place called Alexanderplatz I think,some great history there with parts of the Berlin Wall still standing

When I was touring with my band, we used to play Berlin and the surrounding areas.

I've got a few handy contacts but there's one which ticks pretty much all of your boxes if you want me to get in touch with them?

 

He's a music promoter (around your age) for several clubs etc and has a vast knowledge of night life, sight seeing etc from looking after bands on their stints in Berlin.

 

Either way, there's enough in Berlin for you to discover without being told where to go. It's just that good there!

Mate a man of multiple talents! 

 

If you don't mind asking your friend that would be great. Basically I've got two types of mates some that love house/techno others that hate it. So the plan is do late dinners like 11pm, then hit bars till 4am for non music guys then they can head off. Then 4am till god knows for music.

So if you could ask your mates:

  • Best house/techno clubs
  • Best location full of bars, probably do bar crawl
  • Best steak houses or good German restaurants open late

Thanks man

for whatever reason i cannot sent you pms via the forum anymore iain but heres one more thing you should definitely go for

since you guys want to party and hunger is usually the most present feeling after 4am you certainly should look out for Mustafas Döner

its germanys most famous kebap store, they use no meat but man its taste better than any meat kebap you tried before

usually has waiting queue times at around 30 minutes even in the night, though the later you come the less you have to wait

or gently offer one whos close to the counter to pay his/her kebap if you can order together with him/her ;)

 

 

what i meant with teasing yesterday was all your awesome H5 news, i so much cannot wait to play EU servers in H5

lets hope its coal mine ready soon! :)
