Central Congress

Friday, early evening, 6ish I'd say. Not many people out yet. Somehow I still walked right past the bar, even though it was my destination. After back-tracking to find the non-descript facade and enormous windows, I peaked in. No one was there except one man. I walked in. He looked up with a curriousness because the first door I tried was locked, I was that fool. Hello he said. "Not many people here eh?" I replied. He just nodded his head and smiled.

It was now a bit more obvious, this lone gentleman was the bartender. I told him to pour me something dark, heavy and brown. What he concocted was delicious.

The subtle and stylish interior, chill hip hop paying in the background, and comfy chairs were on point. The cool view outside onlooking the Soviet-era government building of Hamburg was just a plus.

This may be my favorite cocktail bar in Hamburg.

Odd place to go for a drink but I would recommend coming for a drink or 2. Chilled out relaxing music in a business causal sense. I felt like I was either missing the point or too drunk to understand what was going on. But I would come back for the entertainment again.

Really rude staff. People smoking which is completely illegal and over the top covid rules whilst breaking EU smoking laws. Also don’t know how to make cocktails. avoid.

Very laid back atmosphere with very fitting music - a smooth combination of Hip-hop and Jazz. The seating arrangements are unique to this bar as there is a big table in the middle and chairs along the walls, like a Congress room! Also, the bar is unmarked. I thought that was a nice touch.

My absolute all time favourite bar. The simplified concept of a conference room is so amazing it attracts you to get out of your regular office and come chill at this amazing bar. The music takes half of the credit and the rest is done with the cocktail mixes they have. The menu is very amazing with the "old fashioned" being my favourite. And while you are there do see the effert they put in to prepare the drink
