Lebensstern Bar

Lebensstern occupies the upper floor of the Café Einstein Stammhaus villa on Kurfürstenstraße, a wood-panelled apartment-format bar Gerhard Retter runs as a vermouth-and-rum-specialist programme. Over a thousand vermouths and rums on the back wall, the cocktail menu organised around aromatised wine and aged spirit categories, the room itself the West-Berlin upstairs-library reading. Open later than the café below. Regulars that wants a continuation room after a Stammhaus dinner walks upstairs.
