2 Best Bars in Schöneberg, Berlin

Background Illustration for Nightlife

Schöneberg, one of the prettiest areas of Berlin, is mostly residential, though the area around Nollendorfplatz has an abundance of bars and clubs—many of them catering to gay men. Historically, it was Berlin's gay neighborhood, though the city's newer, trendier gay bars are farther east in Kreuzberg and Neukölln. Today, you'll still find leather and fetish clubs as well as some of Berlin's best cocktail bars.

Connection Club

Schöneberg

Just south of Wittenbergplatz, the dance club Connection is known for a mix of music and lots of dark corners.

Havanna Club

Schöneberg

Berlin's multiculti crowd frequents the Havanna Club, where you can dance to soul, R&B, or hip-hop on four different dance floors. The week's highlights are the wild salsa and merengue nights (Wednesday at 9 pm, Friday and Saturday at 10 pm). If your Latin steps are weak, come an hour early for a lesson. Friday and Saturday are "ladies free" nights until 11.
