Welcome to Berlin, EU. In the heart of one of the main European capital cities, when it comes time to pay you are told that "foreign cards are not accepted". Seriously? Sure, the owner set the rule, waiters say. So the untrustworthy foreigner (me) had no choice but to walk to the closest ATM and withdraw cash, so that the owner has enough to fill his tub and enjoy the rustle of notes when taking a bath (honestly, I have no other possible more rational explanation).
Needless to say I will not return to this place, just hope the waiters will find a better job soon, where they won't be forced to explain the ridiculous house rules to astonished customers.
Ps the sticker on the door (in German, see the picture) just says "Please note that only cash or EC card payments are possible, we do not accept credit cards". Nothing is written about "foreign cards".
