Full description

Monkey Bar sits on an upper floor of the 25hours Hotel Bikini Berlin, its terrace looking directly down over the neighboring Berlin Zoo and out across the city skyline — one of the more distinctive views in town. The vibe stays vibrant yet relaxed, drawing a large, steady crowd of both visitors and locals throughout the evening.

Despite its popularity, walking in around early evening on a weekday is often enough to find a seat without a reservation. With drinks priced around fifteen euros, it sits at the accessible end for a rooftop bar with this kind of view.

Reviews

Don’t let the lack of reservations fool you - we walked in about 6pm on a weekday and sat just fine. About 15 eur per drink, good drinks and fun top-down view of a few animal exhibits at the zoo. Nice place to relax a bit, probably not worth going back
