K1 Club

I had a wonderful time here! The atmosphere is incredibly warm and welcoming. Even though I was just passing through, I felt right at home. The owner is such a lovely person—he even greeted me in Turkish with the sweetest words, which totally made my day! It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality and friendly vibes. Definitely a highlight of my trip to Düsseldorf. Highly recommended!

Horrific experience – Unprofessional, rude, and aggressive!!! I have visited hundreds of gay bars worldwide, but unfortunately, K1 is by far the most horrible one. I was shocked by how aggressively the staff treated their customers, especially within a community that is supposed to be safe and inclusive. The nightmare started when we politely asked for a phone charger. While one female bartender was kind enough to say they didn't have one, another male bartender snapped at my German friend, shouting: „Is your brain too limited to understand my answer? I DON’T HAVE!“ We decided to leave immediately. However, the situation escalated at the cashier. The same bartender continued yelling at us from behind the bar. When my friend, understandably upset, paid the bill, the cashier physically shoved him with significant force. I had to step in to stop the physical confrontation. Shockingly, despite being the aggressors, they even threatened to call the police. Just writing this now and thinking of what happened in this bar, I was so upset, disappointed and also sad. As an asian gay living in Europe is already hard enough, and being treated like this in a GAY BAR. Is that really necessary to be rude and even use the violence to your customer? Or stranger? Or Gay. I know the owner of this bar will reply this comment, trying to explain and self-defense, there might be also misunderstandings, but it couldn’t change the fact that they hurt my friend and they hurt our feelings. And I sincerely suggest who read this comment, please think twice before you go to K1 bar, especially if you’re new here and you’re not German, or not white color. For your good experience in Germany and for your safety. Amen.

We went on a Tuesday which was karaoke and we had so much fun! The bartender was very kind and everyone made us feel very welcome.

Went yesterday on a Tuesday night which is karaoke night. The atmosphere was really great, people were friendly and fun even though I don’t speak German. The owner was also very welcoming. Overall I had a really good time there and if I ever go back to Düsseldorf I know I’ll come back here!

Good priced beer, you pay 10 euros to enter and you can consume this 10 euros with drinks - if you don’t, they give you the rest of your money. The owner gave us free shots for New Years, very nice. Karaoke was closed due pandemics, I guess. The ambient is cozy but way too small. I was hoping it to be more lesbian friendly also, I would say. Unfortunately I was disturbed by some weird guy that told me he also worked at the bar some days during week, I was drinking alone and he stood there all the time, I was relieved to be going home after a lot of harassment from this guy claiming “he could also be considered a lesbian to me” and spent hours asking for sex.
