Berlin (nuo Dončiaus)
Usualy we hang out in Kreuzberg, Friedrichshein and Prenzlauerberg areas as well as Mitte (center).
http://berlin.unlike.net/locations/39-Club-der-Visionaere
Club der Visionaere - an outside bar/club/place to hang out in Kreuzberg. It's IN one of the canals, on some sort of floating rafts.
Schlesische str., leading to the club is also worth noticing with one of the best indian food restaurants and lots of small watering holes. L.U.X .with live bands and Vendel with experimental poetry in german are my favourites:)
Bar 25 - another outside bar on the bank of river. 3 day parties or just to sit back and spend a warm afternoon. Also has circus, motel and restaurant.
http://berlin.unlike.net/locations/272-Bar-25
Hops & Barley brewery pub (Friedrichshain) - locally brewed beer in one of my favourite neighbourhoods. The whole area between Boxhander str and Simon Dach str. is dense with pubs, thai food restaurants and Kieze-kiosks (small shops with astounishing variety of beers).
