"We had an amazing dinner at Bar Raval. The food was outstanding and incredibly fresh, and the wine selection was top-notch. The service deserves special mention as well – the staff were friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Definitely one of the best spots in town for Spanish cuisine and wine. Highly recommended!"

"Excellent value for money, friendly staff and great food/drinks (Negro's €9) Highly recommend the croquettes (all of them), sardines, calamari and crispy octopus all cooked beautifully and al dented not over done, excellent.
Only a couple of negatives, a mix up in orders and some errant cigarette smoke flowing in from outside tables through open door but overall very good."
Andrew Cox
"Quality time guaranteed! Friendly staff and very nice service. Outside true Kreuzberg vibes near the park. Inside nice ambiance. The goat cheese with honey was outstanding. Big wine selection. Would we come again? Yes!"

Upon walking through the deep-red velvet curtains (not as over the top as they might sound), customers enter an authentic Spanish eatery, where the rustic food mirrors the decor and atmosphere. This unassuming spot next to Görlitzer Park excels at the simple. The patatas bravas’ sauce has you imagining you are dining in a traditional tapas bar in Spain.

Vielleicht die bekannteste Bar der ganzen Liste wegen ihres Besitzers Daniel Brühl, der ein berühmter internationaler Schauspieler ist. Das raue Aussehen der Fassade, die perfekt mit der Nachbarschaft verschmilzt, ist wirklich ein Kontrast zur stilvollen Einrichtung, die sorgfältig dekoriert wurde. Eine große Auswahl an Weinen, und wenn du ein Fußballfan bist, kannst du in die Bar Raval kommen, um die Spiele der Barça zu verfolgen.

The Kreuzberg Wrangel neighbourhood is where Daniel Brühl´s restaurant invites you for Spanish tapas. Besides the variety of different small bites, there are also a number of Spanish wines to choose from. Naturally you will find typical well-known dishes such as patatas bravas or pimientos de padrón...

This is just two streets from Bar Raval and has a much more local feel, decked out with vintage furniture and Spanish waiters and waitresses. If they have the baked goats cheese and honey on their Special’s board, make sure you try it – deliciosa!
