About
Step into a piece of history at The New Oldtimer, a legendary fixture on any traveler’s Berlin gay map since 1987. Located at Lietzenburger Str. 12, right on the edge of the vibrant Schöneberg district, this welcoming gay bar offers a traditional, rustic charm that captures the authentic spirit of old-school Berlin. Known for its laid-back and social atmosphere, it is a premier destination for gay men, the bear community, and mature locals looking for a relaxed, unpretentious night out. The New Oldtimer stands out with its nostalgic, cozy interior and a soundtrack featuring beloved 70s and 80s hits. Whether you are enjoying a casual beer on their seasonal outdoor patio or striking up a conversation at the bar, the vibe is always friendly and inclusive. As a queer-friendly staple for over three decades, it remains the perfect spot to escape the high-energy club scene for something more intimate and social. For LGBTQ+ visitors seeking an authentic Berlin experience with late-night hospitality and a classic 'kneipe' feel, The New Oldtimer is an essential stop on your queer journey.
