Well you definitely need to go to Berghain/panoramabar. Crazy club! You need women to get in tho.

I know this is from like three years ago, but oh so wrong. Berghain was originally a gay nightclub, and it is definitely NOT the kind of club you can show up at with women and expect guaranteed entry...

[Midnight Marauders]

Sven will make sure of that.

I really wish I had spent a bit more time in Berlin, such a cool city

[freecat]

I'll be in berlin from the 31st to the 3rd, coming back in march too for a longer stay.

any idea of current exhibitions i shouldn't miss ? i have a local there with me and am not really staying long enough but any info would be nice.

[Lemurian]

i'd recommend "wilde renate" for clubbing. shits crazy there.

[martin_henk]

googling 'horst krzbg' and 'ritter butzke' in case one is looking for party might help

[standard]

i am going to berlin for a few days in a couple of weeks and was wondering about the firmament store. do they sell more than what you can see online because some stores have in-store only purchases and don't show them online, does anyone know if this is the case?

[modern77]

The store is really small. Most if not all their stock is online as far as I recall. They may have a few things that aren't online, but if so, it won't be much. Good guys though.

[standard]

thanks man, big help

[fang]

kater holzig and sisyphos are some good underground clubs to check out- very 'vivid' scene at those spots if you know what i mean (not gay-centric if thats what you're thinking). rumor has it the same people who own berghain/panorama run those clubs as well.

+1 for the shops in hakescher markt- great selection of stores.

get a gemuse kebap from mustafa's. one of the best in the city! miss that place.

[Sabbath]

I was there last weekend and in terms of shopping the highlights for me were:

Civilist

Primitive

Firmament

Soto

Also might be worth checking out Stab, New Era, Kickz.com and Solebox.

The kebab stand just up from Civilist is super cheap and make an incredibly tasty donor, highly recommended for a lunch time stop off.

[HOLY]

Have to bump this crap, any more cool shops that sell cool shit (okini,tresbien style)?

[jeansnkicks]

yeah, gonna be there in a few weeks for a couple days. what should i definitely not miss?

[AL-9000]

wood wood probably comes closest to the tresbien style fare.

andreas murkudis, darklands, and ulf haines are also worth checking out

edit: almost forgot, bless shop (only open on thursdays though)

[trem]

im there for 1 week in august if anyone is down to hang

http://www.firmamentberlin.com/ is another store

[freecat]

I will soon open a proxy from Berlin but you can already request stuff via PM before I actually set it up (early September when I definitely move there).

[5-4=Unity]

Apparently the Bar25 guys also opened another spot just a few weeks ago called Chalet, it's literally right next to Club Der Visionaere

I'll be in Berlin from the 26-5 or so if any other SuFu peeps will be around.

[van Diem]

Any good thrift stores in Berlin with margiela, owens, dior and such?

[electricgecko]

Any good thrift stores in Berlin with margiela, owens, dior and such?

drop by at Cash, it's the second season/second hand outlet of Appartment (which you should check out in any case). mostly dark stuff, but you'll find the odd kris van assche or margiela at cash.

[501cult]

Hey gals and guys -

very impressive list of recommendations for Berlin, I feel there's nothing to add.

Except for my offer of proxy service from here, in case anyone wants to acquire something and can't actually come here him-/herself.

Prime denim, alas, is hardly really cheaper than elsewhere, though there's the odd sale here and then.

Hit me up with a PM if you need anything.

[5-4=Unity]

Sisyphos has to be one of my favorite clubs in the world now, some truly "only in Berlin" type of shenanigans.

[VVHT13]

Well you definitely need to go to Berghain/panoramabar. Crazy club! You need women to get in tho.

BS! dont bring girls if you want to get in. 2 boys is best.

[Scais]

will be in berlin 9/23-26 SUFU MEET UP?!

[Atelier]

BS! dont bring girls if you want to get in. 2 boys is best.

Yep. I was with two pals and i'd say 3 boys is the limit

[5-4=Unity]

Anyone gonna be in town for CTM festival ?

[la-madox]

My best Berlin shops are at the moment;

Darklands | Avantgarde and artisan Mecka | Heidestrasse (way off the beaten track... but worth the hassle!)

Apartment | For you RO fans | Munzstrasse

Yoo | Margiela, Damir Doma et | Steinstrasse

Orimono | Stocking Obscur, Aleksandr Manamis, V AVE Shoe Repair etc | Mulackstrasse

Andreas Murkudis | Berlin multilabel institution

bisou!

[Scottishmark]

Any recommendations for places to visit - I'm in Berlin 13th-18th March.

Shopping, food, clubs etc..

[Warakia]

Try Mustafa's Doner kebab in Kreuzberg, you'll recognize it by the line in front of it. Amazing, best doner in Berlin imo.

[Scottishmark]

Will do, thanks! Anywhere else you recommend?

[poof]

I am also planning to visit Berlin for 2 days then to Stuttgart in the month of April. Is there any events/gigs/sales etc happening during the first two weeks of april? Thanks in advance!

[suedest]

Playing a show at Berghain tomorrow night, need recommendations for a few nice party/drinks/dinner and shopping spots in town as we'll have a couple of days to see the place.
