About the Vibe
Tucked inside the historic Savoy Hotel on Fasanenstraße, Times Bar is Berlin's oldest and most classic cigar lounge—a rare old-world sanctuary where mahogany walls and leather chairs set the stage for serious smoke sessions. While the cocktail list leans a bit retro (think Harvey Wallbangers and Mai Tais), the real draw is the curated humidor stocked with top-shelf Cubans and the relaxed, grown-up vibe that's hard to find elsewhere in the city. Come for the cigars, stay for the quiet charm and the chance to sip a well-made gimlet or rum creation in a space that's seen nearly 70 years of Berlin history.

Berlin's Classic Cigar Sanctuary
Times Bar is a rare find in Berlin—a proper, old-school cigar lounge that's been serving up smokes and spirits since 1957. Located inside the Savoy Hotel, this mahogany-paneled space feels like a time capsule, with comfortable leather chairs, walls lined with photos of German celebrities, and a locked humidor that you have to be let into by a server. The cigar selection is excellent, with a full menu of Cuban brands from Montecristo to Quintero, and prices are reasonable for the quality.
The drink list leans classic rather than trendy, with a solid range of rums, single-malt Scotches, and some creative "kreationen" like the Mai Tai and zombie. While some cocktails feel a bit dated, the gimlet is a standout, and the bar knows how to pair a drink with a cigar. There's no food served, and you must be 18 or older to enter, which keeps the atmosphere focused and adult. It's not a place for loud conversations or late-night partying—it's for those who want to unwind with a fine smoke and a quiet drink in one of Berlin's most historic settings.
