"Cool alternative bar with good mindset; oriental touch; friendly service; fair prices; was not very crowded and rather relaxed atmosphere (might be perfect or awful depending on what you expect from a bar night); good drinks - small but solid choice"

"Awesome place with awesome politics. Just a great way to idle away the time with great conversation, great raki, and great music. You're met by nothing but friendly faces, even if you're not from around here and even if it's your first time reading the street name. If I lived here, this is where I'd spend all of my afternoons."

"I had a nice time with this cafe. Casual, "left", neighborhood living room kind of feel. There were musicians practicing some sort of traditional sounding music (maybe Turkish or Kurdish?) Was really beautiful singing. I had a beer for €2.50, and enjoyed the ambience."

"A lovely place! Best chai in Berlin, live music, cozy corners to hang out, a great place if you are new to Berlin and want to meet new people. Mondays are music nights where you for sure will be able to enjoy (or take part) in lively jam sessions."

"One would imagine more places like this in berlin, but there are none- its a must go for musicians, thinkers, artists, writers and so on. I miss however the smoking area, not because of the smoking itself but the people it attracted. The owner is a legend. Research yourself."
