What’s the vibe?
Moodily lit with drinks featuring flavour combinations you’ve never even imagined, deep in the heart of Neukölln.
With Sam Orrock, recently of Scout London fame, on the team and an awards shelf that includes Best New Bar of the Year, Best Bar in Germany, one of The World’s 50 Best Bars, and Bartender of the Year, it’s safe to say the high expectations will be met.
What should I order?
Wax On Berlin operates with a careful balance of creatively interpreted classics and completely original cocktails. As every single bartender worth their margarita salt will tell you, your choice of drink should depend on your taste. That being said, here are a few highlights that may or may not be on the list when you visit:
Go Apes is a crowd favourite, with clarified banana, rum, coffee distillate, and soda, while cherry Paloma with grapefruit, black cardamom, and soda offers a deliciously light touch. A recent special included a hazelnut, toasted sesame, and honey-coffee Old Fashioned. In short, prepare to be surprised.
Not a fan of cocktails, or alcohol? There is a selection of natural wines and beers available, as well as some funky non-alcoholic tall mocktails.
What are the prices like?
Considering the fame and hype around Wax On Berlin, the €11 cocktails are shockingly well-priced. Alternatively, tap beers are around €4.50 and natural wines come in at around €8.
What’s worth visiting nearby?
The pretty and popular canalside street of Maybachufer is just around the corner and makes a lovely, people-watching stroll at any time of the year.
