As a Borhheim yokel, I can tell you that the Schoneberger is fairly busy every night of the week and is a pretty decent pub for pinting. If FNDC is going there, a reservation is probably a good idea.

I get the vibe schoneberger is not really a friday night place.

Although, I have been wrong before (only once though and I was 7! haha!!)

Schöneberger is packed every night of the week and a great atmosphere for weekend drinks.

Agree though a table reservation would definitely be necessary. They hold tables until 8pm. I am not sure how easy it would be to squeeze a largish group in at this late stage though...
action
ok, well, so not to be a dictator, I will go with the peoples choice this time ! I will try and phone them today and book a table.

Failing that, Plan B will be Waxys i think. agreed ?
action
schoneberger it is. booked from 7pm. just squeezed in !

all welcome !

so who is in ?
ITG33K
I'm in, maybe a tad later than 7 though

I should be better for this. Is this Schöneberger bar expensive?
auslandtrev
I m in too. @ Nick: for beers not really: €3 or something for an Alt-Munster. Food is better than the average german bar and consequently is reflected in the price ~€8 for a giant burger.
Kuzzer
Me and Mrs K are in.
boogielicious
Hi all! Yep, will try and come too (-;
supermacs

I am off the radar this friday, well until late on anyway, I have some guests over visiting !

But by all means if anyone wants to organise something in my absence, go on ahead.

The show must go on !

could be some fun. perhaps do one each friday ?

I have not been to any of them, well, that I know of !
action

all those in say Aye !
nick60599
Aye big man.
Little Britain
I'll probs be up for popping along, was good fun last week. going to the Eintracht Frankfurt match first though so won't make it there till 10pm at the earliest I would say

I might pop along to this. But I will have to go easy as I have an early flight to manchester the next morning where the REAL drinking will happen.
Elaleya
i would love to go... i just probably can't go due to the fact that i can't walk... argh... maybe next time then. but yes, waxy's is pretty cool

*** well maybe i could borrow some crutches...
Purple Muffin
What did you do? Hope you are feeling better soon.

I agree Waxy's is pretty cool but a bit on the expensive side. I still cannot understand how a wine spritzer cost 5,20€ whilst a normal glass of wine only 4,50€. Maybe being both blonde and Welsh it is something just beyond my comprehension. Also over 7€ for an Irish coffee is a bit steep. But then the cool places are always pricey.
action
Irish bars are pricy, but good atmosphere and you know what you are drinking !

All tap water drinks are on me !

Yea and unless it is Guinness then it is complete shite compared to German beer biggrin.gif
chickenmadras
I second PM's comments. German beer is die Hoden des Hundes compared to anything from the British Isles!!
Waxy's was well expensive...€ 4,20 for a beer!
nick60599
The only way German Pils is drinkable is in a Snakebite and Black.
Purple Muffin
Permission for everyone to attack you for that one! How on earth can you think that? Obviously not been drinking long enough to appreciate the how beer should actually taste. Or drinking the pils at Waxy's/O Reilly's and the like. The Munich folks might shoot you down for that one.
nick60599
I prefer Guinness. It's not as if I go back to the UK and start drinking Fosters and Carlsberg and all that crap!

And also, it depends what beer you are talking about. I for one prefer the taste of proper ale or stout. For me, that is how real beer should taste like.

Yes me too biggrin.gif But that doesn't mean German beer is horrible by any stretch.

@CM thought is was actually 4,80€ for a pint in Waxy's or is that just the Guinness.
nick60599
Guinness tends to be more expensive, so I would guess that 4,20€ is for lager and 4,80€ is for Guinness.

What happened to this idea? Buena Vista gets my vote for a Friday. Or Harveys. Seems daft going to the same place all the time
Elaleya

hey PM, as last friday was such a blast and the staff were so good to us I thought we would give it another shot ! If it ain't broke don't fix it !

Will perhaps give the list a shot soon.
ITG33K
...and who says we need to stay at Waxy's all night? The second stage at Sandbar last week rocked...
Anyway, I'm in.
