What makes Boyberry special
For decades Tom’s Bar on Motzstraße was a fixture of the Berlin scene. After a refurbishment it reopened on 22 March 2024 as Boyberry Berlin. Behind it is Joan Igual, who also runs Boyberry bars in Barcelona and Madrid, together with former Tom’s Bar owner Jürgen Streblow.
Since the refurbishment the bar is brighter and more open: you can look in from outside, and the design relies mainly on wood. On the right a long bar runs almost the whole length of the room, plus standing tables. Boyberry is famous for its darkroom with cabins in the basement.
Atmosphere and crowd
Boyberry is exclusively for men. Most guests are between 25 and 40, but older men come too. If you want to cruise, this is the right place, and the flirt factor is correspondingly high. There is a door policy, and once inside it is customary to order a drink straight away.
Hafen is right next door, and Prinzknecht and Bull Bar are also just a few minutes away.
A good fit if you …
- are looking for a cruising bar with a darkroom
- are between 25 and 40 or like that crowd
- want to go out late, it’s open daily until at least 5 am
Not ideal if you …
- are out with female friends, this is men only
- are looking for a bar to talk
