A guide to the best wine bars in Berlin, chosen for the ambition of their wine by the glass, the depth of their cellars, and the welcome at the table. These 18 Berlin wine bars and restaurants span the city — from Michelin dining rooms in Mitte and Kreuzberg to natural-wine bars in Neukölln, an Italian enoteca in Wilmersdorf, and waterside tables on the Spree. Expect German Rieslings and sparkling wines, Italian classics imported direct from growers, organic bottles from small estates, and a strong natural-wine streak across Charlottenburg, Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain.
2 Glass Rating: Outstanding
Restaurant Tim Raue
Restaurant · Rudi-Dutschke-Straße 26, 10969 Berlin
A two-Michelin-star dining room in Kreuzberg, a short walk from Checkpoint Charlie, where wine has always shared top billing with the kitchen. The list reaches for rare and large-format bottles, and because the team pours with Coravin, those wines can be served by the glass without committing to a whole bottle — so a single sitting can take in benchmark wines that almost never appear on a by-the-glass list. A 2 Glass programme of more than forty wines by the glass.

Wine Bar · Strausberger Platz 17, Berlin

The list runs to Italian and natural wines, poured in a charming retro setting alongside antipasti and fresh pasta. A 2 Glass programme of more than forty wines by the glass.

Restaurant Rutz
Restaurant · Chausseestraße 8, 10115 Berlin
Berlin's only three-Michelin-star restaurant, in Mitte — and one that began life as a wine bar in 2001. Wine still comes first here: Marco Müller's cooking and the cellar are treated as two expressions of the same idea, with pairings that read like a guided tour through the glass. A Hidden Gem for those who want the food to follow the bottle, rather than the other way round.

Nobelhart & Schmutzig
Restaurant · Friedrichstraße 218, 10969 Berlin
A Michelin-starred dining room on Friedrichstraße in Kreuzberg, known for an uncompromising 'food from here' philosophy — and a cellar chosen on the same terms. Wines are picked only when the team knows the people behind them, which makes the by-the-glass pours a window onto small, principled growers. A Hidden Gem for drinkers who care where the bottle comes from.

Wine Gallery & Café NÖ!
Wine Bar · Glinkastraße 23, 10117 Berlin
A Berlin institution just off Gendarmenmarkt in Mitte, open since 1995 — back when the city's dining scene was still rebellious and finding its feet.

Carl & Sophie
Restaurant · Alt-Moabit 99, 10559 Berlin
A relaxed Spree-side restaurant on Alt-Moabit, as cosy as it is stylish, and genuinely family-friendly.

A Hidden Gem for waterside drinking away from the crowds.

What are the best wine bars in Berlin?
This guide covers 18 Berlin wine bars and restaurants chosen for their wine by the glass. Restaurant Tim Raue in Kreuzberg and Briefmarken on Karl-Marx-Allee lead the 2 Glass tier. The Hidden Gems include the three-Michelin-star Restaurant Rutz, the producer-led Nobelhart & Schmutzig, the De Rome Restaurant in Mitte, MINE in Charlottenburg and the long-running Wine Gallery & Café NÖ!. Neighbourhood favourites such as Veronika, Der Kleine August, Enoteca il Calice and The Rad round out the list across Mitte, Charlottenburg, Wilmersdorf and Neukölln.
What are the best wine bars in Mitte, Berlin?
Mitte is the densest district in this guide. Restaurant Rutz on Chausseestraße is the standout for wine-led fine dining; Wine Gallery & Café NÖ! has poured by the glass since 1995; and Veronika, inside the Fotografiska museum on Oranienburger Straße, lists 30 to 40 wines by the glass. Der Kleine August, Freundschaft and the De Rome Restaurant are also in Mitte.
What are the best natural wine bars in Berlin?
The Rad in Neukölln is a dedicated natural-wine bar, importing most of its list direct from European growers. MINE in Charlottenburg keeps everything as natural as possible in the kitchen and the glass; Briefmarken on Karl-Marx-Allee pours Italian and natural wines; and Nobelhart & Schmutzig chooses grower wines on the same principles as its food.
Where can I find rare wines by the glass in Berlin?
Restaurant Tim Raue in Kreuzberg pours rare and large-format bottles by the glass using Coravin technology, which lets a kitchen open prestige wines without wasting the bottle. It means benchmark wines that rarely appear by the glass can be tasted a glass at a time.
What counts as "by the glass" at these venues?
Typically 100–150ml pours, often alongside smaller tasting measures or carafes. Several venues in this guide use Coravin technology, so rarer and more expensive wines can be offered by the glass without opening a full bottle.
What should I expect to pay for wine by the glass in Berlin?
At relaxed wine bars such as The Rad, Mauerwinzer or Enoteca il Calice, expect roughly €6–€12 a glass for everyday pours. Rare or prestige wines by the glass at fine-dining addresses like Restaurant Tim Raue, Restaurant Rutz and Nobelhart & Schmutzig sit well above that, reflecting the bottles being opened.
Wine by the glass turns a single evening into a tasting flight, and the wine bars in Berlin above show how far a thoughtful by-the-glass programme can travel — from grower Champagne to bio-dynamic reds. Use the map to plan a crawl by neighbourhood, and open each venue for opening hours, the current pour list, and booking details.
The Coravin Guide reviews each venue independently, focusing on the ambition and depth of what they pour by the glass. No venue pays to be included.
