Boyberry is a bar mostly for young pals with a cool atmosphere, there's a lively crowd, and it's very busy on weekend nights. Dark room and cruising area available.I once left my leather jacket on a chair and was able to pick it up the next evening. It was surprisingly pleasant, and that kind of thing doesn't happen often in Berlin.

Amazing place with a legend of an owner! Super friendly service and a really cool setup. If you’re looking for a spot that’s welcoming and open-minded, this is it. Thanks again for having us!

Amazing place in the heart of Berlin’s gay life. Always a great atmosphere, very friendly and hot staff, and plenty of space to relax and enjoy yourself. Definitely one of the must-visit spots in the area.

It was my first visit to this gay bar in Berlin.Tge drinks were not expensive ,I liked the atmosphere.But I stayed there to 12 at night on a Saturday night.Almost nothing happened.I mean there were music and some people,but it felt so distance and empty at the same time.Nothing happened at the cruising are either.Just some people moving around..and thus was Saturday night... At the end I just left .So litte exitment and boring to bee honest.

I really love the bar but unfortunately I can’t go back again.I was seated next to some people, there cocktail glass fell down.But they started gossiping about me that it’s me who has thrown there glass. They were doing it again and again while looking at me.They thought I didn’t understand there language because am black but I heard everything.Goodbye BoyBerry.

I visited this place for the first time a few days ago, since it was my first visit, I wasn't familiar with how everything worked, but one of the bartenders Maxim was super friendly and helpful. He took his time to explain everything, gave great recommendations, and made me feel comfortable right away. The service was top-notch, the vibe was amazing, and the boys were hot! I met so many good people and had fun whole night! like to thank the bartenderMaxim!! he truly made the evening special.I'II definitely be coming there often !! Good job guys !!!!!

Had a good time with my friends, music was good and we met nice people, however it was overshadowed by how unprofessional one of the bartender was. Maxim was extremely rude and insulting. I'm not sure he is made for interacting with people. All of his colleagues were absolutely nice but I will not return because of him.

This is a disgraceful place, this man who said he was named Jhon (Which I think he lied) a bartender was VERY rude, he grabbed me by the arm and told me to leave the place because I haven’t order a drink, was literally one minute that I was in, he screamed at me, which got me super choked, humiliating in front of everyone, instead of politely telling me to order something! I don’t think anyone is entitled to touch someone and scream at them to order a drink without even asking a single question, i am a flight attendant and social media influencer, i have never experienced such a horrible thing before in any other city, I know Germans are known to be rude but this is super sad and disgusting treatment to who are supporting tourism in their country ! DONT EVER GO THERE, there’s plenty of better place in the same area!

One drink minimum cruising bar with lots of glory-holes which are mostly empty throughout the night. Plays pop music which is a welcomed for diversity in a city of electronic music in Berlin, staff is young and sexy (but changes every few months so don’t feel too close to anyone) which is the brand they want to project but it’s never crowded the vibe isn’t there and the cruising is not so hot. It has an out of town feel- not really part of the Berlin world - but makes sense since it’s a Spainish chain of bars. It’s hard to move into the place that was legendary Tom’s for so many important decades before and after the wall came down. As the name suggests they want to push the idea of boys but certainly the clients do not fit this - so their is a mismatched - the empty night is the night that discounts for younger guys.

Boyfriend and I stayed in Berlin for a week and just kept coming back; Good (& surprisingly cheap) bar attended by friendly staff and a very diverse clientele. The men come in waves so it's a great space to just relax in and see what takes your fancy.Besides the darkroom there's a foosball table and a free arcade machine that we sunk a good few hours of Bubble Bobble on, so between it all we had a ball every single time.In response to some of the negative reviews, I'd just like to say that you get what you bring to this place - negative and closed off? That's what you'll get. Happy, open and relaxed? You'll have a great time and make good connections like we did. It's really not that serious!

My friend and I visited from Sydney recently . Fun and friendly place with hot guys . It was a busy Saturday night and so much fun in the back rooms . Bar busy too with good vibes . A very friendly Swedish bar man called Hannes made our night as he spoke good English and got our cocktails right every time . Gave us lots of smiles and was quite chatty given the business of the place . Very good young barman and hot to .

I had an unfortunate experience at this bar. One of the staff members, who I believe is a younger twink-presenting worker, was surprisingly disrespectful and dismissive. As a Black customer, I felt targeted and uncomfortable due to the way I was treated — the attitude felt unnecessary and, frankly, insensitive.Everyone deserves to feel welcome and respected regardless of who they are. Sadly, this wasn’t the case during my visit. I hope the management addresses staff training around inclusivity and respectful customer service, especially towards people of color.

Visited there on Thursday night, a few people wanderimg around. The place has kept the layout of previous Tom's bar, the dark room, toilets and cabins still the same. Unlike other sex bars, the public seems to be more cautious to initiate something. Fetish/underwear or naked is not discouraged, but it seems to be a place for casual goers with normal regular clothes on, trying to pretend they are there just for a drink. Mixed crowd, nice staff, very helpful and friendly.

It's nice and clean, the barman was really nice. I got a second drink free. I think it's a promotion for being there before 9pm. I went at 7pm on Monday and there wasn't anyone there. I'm sure it'll be great on a Friday or Saturday night.

I got in no problem, many people complain, but still, I haven't seen anything special.There are no clearly old men, but young twinks were only the bartenders.I got approached in the "darkroom" a few times and people have no manners. I'm not into you, come on, stop touching me. Meh

I was treated unfairly and without respect by the manager. He forced me to leave for no reason. I was just having drinks with my friends who were visiting Berlin. We felt humiliated in front of everyone. Really a place to avoid.

Entrance is totally free. Amazing place. Staff were very friendly and speak English 😍.. I like the diversity of the people there. And lots of fun …

Many cute men at this bar. Glory hole was a bit small and I got in trouble for putting my balls in the hole as well. I guess it’s shaft/ tip only ?

Rude staff, low class place, everything looks very cheap. Warning if by mistake you enter and forget to buy a drink you will be at the mercy of an unattractive small badly shaved security guy. And of a manager telling you low intellectual inepsies like the law is the law. You know now what to expect. Go to Berghain, Kitkat, ClubOst etc to have fun instead!

Not recommended. Discriminates against certain groups. Really rude door men. Weird atmosphere.And notice. There has recently been a significant flow of five star reviews. They always come in short bursts several reviews sent almost precisely at the same time. And the reviews repeat verbatim almost the same sentences. Go figure the reason for that.As always, read the one star reviews also , they tend to be more reliable because the 5 star reviews here are mostly bogus.

The place now is much better than when it was Tom’s bar. Better atmosphere and happier feeling. And music was great. A mixture between all kind of songs from Europe from now to music from years ago. Christian in the bar was really making everyone feeling so welcome ! I’ll be back for sure !

Really nice bar with cool vibes, finally some nice place for younger people. I'm over 30 and felt perfectly fitted. Nice atmosphere, cool music, friedly stuff and really big cruising area with darkrooms up and dawnstairs where you can have lot of fun. Friendly waiters, that was my first time and i got wardrobe for free as welcome treat. I really liked it, they could work and invest little more in interior design but all in all very nice experience i recommend and for sure will come back soon 🥳

I had so much fun. The cruising area was clean and had the right amount of lighting or darkness. The guys were hot and it was packed. I would definitely go back there and i recommend it.

They intend to be a bar for "twinks". If you come from other group, expect to be discriminated. Older guys, fetish people, bears, expect that your entry is likely to be refused.Not in Berlin. Please close your doors or learn tolerance and diversity.

Weird vibe. Dance and games in the front. Glory holes in the back and downstairs. They don’t like fetish gear. Don’t show up with puppy hoods or they will ask you to leave.

We had an excellent experience at Boyberry in Berlin, thanks to Daniel. His kindness and good treatment made our visit very pleasant. He was attentive, his recommendations were perfect for our visit around the city. Despite being busy, he never made us feel rushed. We will definitely be back.

A nice cruising bar with a concept similar to Boyberry Madrid. Relatively cheap drinks and fun darkroom during busy hours (weekends) with a miced international crowd. The rest of the times it's very quiet and frankly less fun! Consumption mandatory straight after entering the bar.

Terrible experience, super rude young bar tender following people suspiciously and with the eyes controlling if you are coming just for the cruising area.Bar was almost empty and we were waiting for a friend that was inside the bathroom/dark area and the bar tender invited us to leave the bar immediately if we hadn't take any drinks after 1 mins. He was shouting and calling us with terrible manners in front of all the people (some of the client didn't have any drinks anyway so it did look more like something personal, maybe because we were Italian) ... We would certainly have a drink if he hadn't insisted so much as soon as we crossed the threshold and if we have had a better welcome.An advice: It's better to keep away from certain bad people and this terrible low profile gay scene, in Berlin for sure you can find better places at least with kind people and a warn welcome.

Unfriendly and slow barmen. Lacks of atmosphere. Looks more like an ice cream shop with lot of light and fruits decorations that give the place a very childish appearance. Often very empty. Two huge pictures of p*rm actors outside the entrance which someways try to establish how you should look like if you want to get in. What was a very nice smoking room with an extensive sitting corner and soccer table is now a very underwhelming dark-room-labyrinth that nobody actually uses. There are no benches anymore in the bar.. there's nowhere you can sit together with somebody to exchange some affection. It's just bar chairs. Very cold and impersonal. There's nowhere where you can actually chill.

I finally took the time to visit Boyberry in Berlin. I've been to Boyberry a few times in Madrid before the pandemic, and I immediately recognised the theme and concept. They've done a great job turning old Tom's into new Boyberry. I can't really understand the negative reviews here as I had a great time and all the staff members I was in contact with were very nice and friendly. The prices in the bar are also good with beer for less than €4. I went here on a Saturday night so it was as crowded as it can be, and I had a lot of hot fun with several other guests during the night both in the cabins and downstairs. It's not often that I stay out until five in the morning anymore, but here time just flew and it was suddenly morning. I'll be back for sure ❤️

Very friendly staff! Not a bad place to go to on a Monday night, when most places are closed. It’s also nice to have your drink served by handsome bartenders 😘

I was visiting from New York City and was looking forward to experiencing the bar. I walked in on a Saturday night and received a tap on the shoulder from a plump and indistinguishablebearded man who kept saying not this time not this time. I realized he wanted me to leave. Given his shocking rudeness I was happy to oblige for he gave me the creeps. A very strange experience to be sure. In NewYork, Gay establishments are integrated into the community where gay people lift each other up and have each other’s backs. Boyberry is obviously self serving and ageist. As Bette Davis said WHAT A DUMP! Thank goodness I did not arrive in a wheelchair. They probably would have pushed me out the door into on coming traffic.

It has NOTHING to do with Madrid or Barcelona. I came hoping to find something similar to Barcelona, but nothing has changed from the Tom's bar era, it's always the same place, the management is still the same!!!! The only difference is that the former staff (barmen, etc) were fired to hire some cute twinks... That's all, nothing more has changed.

Not welcoming staff.We entered the Bar to see how it looks like, to understand if there was an atmosphere to sit and drink beer, but 2 guys immediately said that we have to order an alcohol to go further and see the bar. We turned around and left.Worst place I've ever been to Berlin.

From a city like Berlin - I expected something BETTER, definitely better, but it was VERY VERY POOR ! The darkrooms downstairs are very dark - so dark that you can't even see people's faces. Of course, I understand the word "darkroom", but I believe that there should be a small light there, allowing at least the facial features to be seen. The floor is dark and you don't know where you are going and what you are getting into. It's dangerous. ALSO it was very stuffy and hot EVEN though the temperature outside was normal. TOO MANY OLD MEN and „boys” like lady princesses with colorful nails from southern Europe. This is simply overrated. This place is genderless. Will not visit again. The only benefit is nice service at the bar 💁🏼‍♂️ but it doesn't make me want to visit this place again.

I went to this bar for the second time today, and this will be the last. One of the bar staff was extremely rude, he refused to take the beers I ordered and wouldn't take my coat when I asked to leave. Anyone who works in customer service must keep in mind that the customer is the one who brings in the money, the customer is the star and not the shirtless attendant. For owners, I suggest being more careful when hiring. A bad employee harms the establishment and scares away customers.

Seems absolutely out of place. The new owners mustn't have any connection to the neighborhood they injected themselves into if they thought this soulless, franchise-looking, surveillance-clad twink-joint is what Berlin in general and Motzstraße in particular needed. The atmosphere is weird and the music is silly at best. Don't recommend

I went to the inauguration last Friday. It was packed all night. Huge success. I had so much fun. The football table was there (instead of a review that says it is not). Bartenders were super nice and hot. Public was great. Backroom looks great. This is gonna be a fun place to go.

Amazing new place! The color, the atmosphere. The music. High recommend place and it really shows that they care about the clients. The football table is great, the dark rooms and the glory’s. Perfect place to to and have some drinks and some fun if you fancy.
