Donau115

Musicians were very good, also couldn't confirm bad reviews wrt staff. I found the interactions very nice.
The donation thing (going around with a jar while during the concert) is a bit annoying but I think this way is probably the way people give most, so understandable that they do it like that.

It was super nice that there was no smoking inside during the concert. I wish more places implemented that. After the concert it was allowed to smoke inside though.

I always liked Donau, both as a musician who played there a couple of times and as a listener. Tonight, the two people running the venue turned a wonderful concert by Hilde into a terrible experience. One of them screamed at the audience who were standing outside during the break - including the musicians who were playing. He was definitely the loudest and possibly irritated the neighbors more than us. Then, as soon as the concert ended, before the audience could really enjoy the wonderful feeling after Hilde’s performance, the same screaming person made a very loud announcement that they were short on staff and were closed. We were forced to leave the bar and when we confronted them about their disrespectful attitude, they were extremely rude. Horrible people who certainly should not be allowed to work there. I am deeply disappointed. The musicians who played there were also irritated and had hardly any time to relax after their concert and have a drink with their friends. Terrible experience, really. On my boycott list as venues in Berlin (which is a very short list)

Best place in town: nice drinks, usually good music and great vibe. Just don’t go on Tuesday. Open stage isn’t worth it Unless your kids or friends are on stage.

One of the best secrets in Berlin. It is all about the music here. Top musicians, great bartenders, intimate atmosphere, fair prices.

hands down the best place for jazz in berlin, charming bar, fair prices and great booking!

Musicians are really good, they don’t deserve the rating but the teenagers working there are really rude. They have 0 interest in their work. They simply don’t care. If you don’t mind getting a rude bad service then you’ll be ok.
