Neues Ufer

Established in the early 1970s, this is one of the city’s oldest gay cafés and is located off the beaten Schoneberg track. The former name Anderes Ufer (‘The Other Side’) was changed to Neues Ufer (‘The New Side’), symbolising a new beginning. A favourite hangout of David Bowie’s, during his late-1970s Berlin exile (he lived a few doors down on Hauptstrasse). Relaxed daytime scene.
