Sohnemann Bar

Sohnemann has a warmth that many cocktail bars never manage, no matter how polished the drinks are. In Friedrichshain, it brings classic bar culture into a room that still feels grounded in the neighborhood, with house made liqueurs, syrups, and tonic giving the place a distinctly personal touch. The family story behind it adds something real as well: this is not a bar built around attitude, but around familiarity, welcome, and the idea of becoming a true local fixture.

What makes it appealing is the lack of pretense. Sohnemann seems comfortable being both carefully run and genuinely relaxed, with enough craft behind the drinks to satisfy people who care, but none of the stiffness that can make a night out feel overdesigned. It comes across as the kind of place that wants you to return, not just be impressed once.
