BELLMAN IN KREUZBERG: THE ALLURE OF THE NO-FRILLS BAR

BELLMAN IN KREUZBERG: THE ALLURE OF THE NO-FRILLS BAR

Bellman Bar is featured in our book Cee Cee Berlin No2Get the book here.

In a city of constant change, sometimes it’s nice to go back to a place that remains the same, and Bellman is just such a place. The music plays, the candles flicker. You sit at the wooden tables, which have stood here long before they were en vogue in Berlin. Maybe you drink a beer or a glass of red wine, or perhaps order a snack to go with your drink, or you don’t – but these are small details, trivialities. You go to Bellman for the sum of these things. You get together with old friends who have stood the test of time. When you finally stumble out of the bar together and meander in different directions towards home, you feel animated and satisfied. What more could you ask for from a bar on a nondescript Kreuzberg street corner? (Text: Nina Trippel / Photos: Daniel Farò)
