The days are heating up again, the evenings are getting longer and the desire to share a fresh aperitif with friends makes many Berliners leave their homes. The streets are again filled with lively people, eager to keep abreast of the latest news from their friends, looking for the next delicious glass of Aperol Spritz. To give you some ideas on how to start the hot summer nights ahead, we would like to introduce you to some great aperitif bars in Berlin.
Frau Luna
The Frau Luna atmospheric aperitif bar is located directly on the Paul-Lincke-Ufer and inspires with its rustic charm and nostalgic interior. In addition to classic aperitif drinks like Aperol Spritz, Campari, Negroni and wine, they serve an East German touch of the classic aperitif: a slice of bread topped with delicious fresh ingredients – or as the owner Jonas likes to call them: Stulle . If you want to enjoy your aperitif here, you can end the evening with a nice walk along the Landwehrkanal.

AltoAdige
Want to go somewhere a little chic? AltoAdige in the beautiful city of Charlottenburg offers wines of all kinds in an elegant rustic ambience. The bar’s name means South Tyrol and it is exactly from this region that the bar delights us with its special selection of Italian wines. The aperitif time is from 3 to 8 p.m., where you can enjoy small bites at the buffet with the wine of your choice!

The Premiata Ditta
Another classic among Aperitivo bars is the La Premiata Ditta wine bar in Mitte. The two owners Giovanni and Pino welcome you every day from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. to taste their own selection of Italian wines, cheeses and salamis. If you do not know them yet, you should soon plan a warm evening with them.

Gallina Bar
The Vineria Gallina is a picturesque place in the Wrangelkiez, comfortable, warm and lively like Kreuzberg itself. Taste Italian antipasti, cheese and sausages from Veneto, Campania and Puglia. This is the place for a delicious aperitif after work with good music.

Altes Europa
The atmospheric Altes Europa café-bar is located at the corner of the Gipspark and has delighted their customers for many years with its unique, rustic and romantic atmosphere. It is not really a dedicated aperitif bar, but it still made our list because of its unique charm. Whether for an aperitif or as a prelude to a long wild night, a visit to Altes Europa could turn into anything you want!
