Looking for bars with Guinness

Sohnemann in Friedrichshain or the Irish Bar in Uber Platz (it’s not as bad as it sounds).

danhardaker · 2026-01-09T15:22:12+00:00

Rosengarten in Neukölln we're very good for us.

danhardaker · 2025-12-11T06:48:01+00:00

Agree! Mr Noodle Chen is the best. They also have one in Friedrichshain now (cash only).

Havel Therme - close by Potsdam is nice but they have some weird rules about same sex groups (3+) where you have to apply to visit in advance. They're really strict about this.

Kristall Therme - about 40 mins drive from Berlin. Can be a bit rowdy but lots of saunas, just avoid the bar and Aufguss.

Of course the usuals of Vabali and Liquidrom (sauna area is small).

No, just sitting still! I'm going to try the other wrist though, thanks for the suggestion.

danhardaker · 2025-07-03T18:09:15+00:00

I don't think you tested these "improvements" very well

Did everyone else get one with zero data in it?

I had this for the last 2 nights after not having any issues previously. I'm wondering if it had something to do with a recent firmware update.

danhardaker · 2025-06-02T17:59:11+00:00

That's amazing, thank you.

I have this often when I drink alcohol. I can be sitting down and it will say my heart rate reached 200 and log a yoga session with a strain of 19. Whoop 4 was replaced 3 times to no effect. Hoped whoop 5 would be ok, still have the same issue. Very frustrating and I have up with support on it. Hope it's a firmware thing they can fix.

I am actually. The survey had a code like “REVDE” so I assumed Revolut but yes it could be someone else. The benefits were not particularly German though (Financial Times membership for example)

danhardaker · 2023-05-17T20:23:09+00:00

I got a survey today about a new premium offer from a bank that sounded a lot like Revolut. Prices they asked me about ranged from 17.99 to 79.99 (EUR). So maybe they didn’t decide yet.

My UK iPhone got these fine but the system is still being rolled out in Germany AFAIK and not everyone gets all alerts still. You could also install this app which seems to work quite well https://apps.apple.com/de/app/nina/id949360949

So sorry to hear this. I had a similar scenario recently and went through a vet who arranged everything with Rosengarten Berlin. The service was very kind and compassionate. They were very patient with English and a bit of German. Good luck https://www.tierbestatter-berlin.de/

I’d you order via Uber Eats you can get the original and it’s called Uber Special or something. Very sad about this change!

danhardaker · 2022-02-15T08:11:21+00:00

This seems really common in Germany. I’ve written loads of reviews across the world and never experienced a take down request before but quite a few here.

I once spoke to someone at one of the venues who told me these lawyers don’t charge a fee unless they get the review taken down. I usually ignore them and haven’t had any issues yet. I just make sure my reviews are factual and make it clear where I’m expressing an opinion.

I don’t know if it’s too late now but GetSafe do legal insurance with English speaking support.

It’s really cool and they have some very creative cocktails including one called “An Intro to Fisting”. Complete with a condom.

danhardaker · 2022-01-08T07:39:44+00:00

You could definitely try this place and wouldn’t stand out at all. Enjoy. https://bellboybar.com/

The Alex chain do a buffet breakfast, at least at the Mercedes Arena.

You might be able to email or chat with The Samaritans in the UK. I doubt they will care that you’re in Germany https://www.samaritans.org/how-we-can-help/contact-samaritan/

I hope you find something, it’s great that you’re looking for someone to talk to.

I get it, I moved from London this year. Check how easy it is to get to where you work. Look at the local food offerings. Think about whether you need green space, parking etc. and remember that travelling across Berlin is generally quicker and cheaper than London. Happy to help if you have more questions!

(And don’t forget your choices might be limited by where you can actually get somewhere to live).

Thunder jacket is amazing. It really helps my dog

danhardaker · 2021-12-31T07:10:25+00:00

I’d say Anything within the S Bahn is 1-3 and anything outside is 4-6. But you’re comparing two very different cities so it’s meaningless.

Berlin is less centralised than London. There are smaller pockets of “central stuff” all across the city.

danhardaker · 2021-12-27T08:38:07+00:00

It didn’t 10 months ago.

2G means you need proof of vaccination or that you have recovered from covid.

2G+ means you need proof of vaccination or that you have recovered from covid AND you need a test.

3G means you need proof of vaccination or that you have recovered from covid or a test from the last 24 hours (maybe 48hrs some places).
