Nestled inside the Ermelerhaus, the Rococo wing of art’otel Berlin Mitte, Upside Down Bar & Restaurant brings an artful, design-driven twist to Berlin’s evening scene. The concept leans heavily on visual identity: original “Upside Down” paintings by Georg Baselitz permeate the space, with accent hues and furnishings echoing the distorted, inverted perspective typical of his work. The bar juxtaposes classic upright bar design with creative touches and a cozy dining zone outfitted in teal blues and golds, embracing both sophistication and relaxation. Their drinks side is solid: signature cocktails (e.g. “Scotch Thyme,” “Berlin Passion”), along with classics, a wine list spanning Europe, and an interesting cocktail + wine balance. On the food side, the menu leans Mediterranean / light sharing fare: tapas-style bites, small dishes, nibbles, and “bits & bites” that pair well with drinks. During warmer or sunnier moments, the courtyard gives the place extra charm as a sundowner spot. They also host occasional events, live music nights, and DJ residencies. In short: Upside Down is a hybrid — part hotel bar, part design lounge, part casual dining + cocktail destination. It leans contemporary but with artistic depth, making it ideal for after-work drinks, date nights, or a refined but relaxed night out in Mitte.
