Honestly, this is my favourite burger place in Berlin. It's gotta a bit of a love/hate reputation though. I don't really understand how but some people don't like it. It's american style Burgers with thick patties. The price is fairly high (10-15e) but it's worth it. You may want to book a table in advance.

Drinks & Nightlife
Very cool concept. You pay for the glass (I think it's 5E now) and can drink as much wine as you'd like. Then when you leave, pay how much you think the wine was worth.

This place has two table football tables which is just great. It's a dark comfortable bar in which people can smoke inside. It can be a little dense though as it fills up.

Thoughout the summer (pretty much whenever it's above 20 degrees) a number of Thai families form a sort of market and sell Asian style food. Unfortunately, it's on the other side of the city to me but it's still a bit of fun.

Getting Around
This is on the circular line around the city. The left side goes towards Friedrichshain the right towards Charlottenburg.
There's also a tram stop just in front of it. If you take this into the city, you'll go right to the central station Alexanderplatz. From there you can pretty much go anywhere.
