Frequently Asked Questions

You can reserve a table for your group free of charge. Instant online booking is available for up to 50 guests. For larger groups, email reservations@thecastleberlin.de. We offer seating in the Front Room, Back Room, Middle Room, and Beer Garden (covered in winter). Visit thecastleberlin.de/reservations to book. Walk-ins are still welcome.

Yes. For parties of up to 50 people, reserve tables online free of charge. For larger groups or exclusive use of the Middle and Back Rooms, email reservations@thecastleberlin.de. Please note that our regular business continues during your visit unless you book exclusive use, and all drinks must be purchased from the bar. Loud music and dancing are not possible - we are primarily a bar, not a nightclub. Thank you for your understanding.

Online reservations are available for groups of 2 to 50 people. For larger groups, email reservations@thecastleberlin.de. If fewer guests arrive than originally booked, we reserve the right to seat other guests in any unused space after a reasonable amount of time. This helps us make the best use of our space for everyone.

Yes! Quiz reservations open at 10:00 on Monday mornings via the website. Please note that quiz reservations are only possible for the Middle and Back Rooms - reserving a table in any other area means you won't be able to join the quiz. The quiz starts at 20:00 and runs until approximately 22:30. It is conducted in both English and German.

Yes, the Beer Garden can be reserved and walk-ins are always welcome. The garden is equipped with heaters in winter and smoking is permitted. During strong winds in winter, covers may be removed for safety. The Beer Garden cannot be made fully private.

Yes. The Middle and Back Rooms can be booked together exclusively for about 80-100 people. That means a room hire fee plus a minimum food and drink spend - two separate amounts. The exact figures depend on date, time, duration and group size, and are confirmed before the reservation is finalised. Food and drinks on the group's tab count towards the food and drink minimum; the room hire fee does not. The Middle Room cannot be reserved exclusively on its own. The pub is open-plan, with no doors between the rooms. Depending on the booking, a designated part of the covered outdoor area may also be included. The Front Room cannot be made exclusive. Ask about exclusive use by emailing reservations@thecastleberlin.de.

Yes, our staff can set up a tab for your group, linked to your table number. If you have a specific budget, let us know and we'll notify you as you approach it. You can also request drink vouchers to limit consumption per person. All tabs must be settled by the end of the night.

Yes! We accept cash, EC cards, credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), contactless payments, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.

Unfortunately no - we do not offer payment by invoice. All food and drink orders go through our till system and must be settled on the same day. We can provide a full tax receipt upon request once the bill is paid.

Yes! The pool table costs €1 per game, payable in coins only. We do not take reservations for the pool table - it's first come, first served. The table is in the Back Room. It remains available to all guests unless both rooms are booked privately.

Absolutely - we are dog-friendly! We provide dog snacks and a water bowl. Please feel free to ask our staff about these when you arrive. Your four-legged friend is welcome in all areas of the pub.

Yes, you're welcome to bring your own cake for a celebration! Please bring plates, cutlery, and napkins with you. No other outside food or drinks are permitted.

Each section has its own speaker system and our staff can adjust the volume on request. During the day until 17:00, the bar area tends to be quieter and more suitable for meetings. The Back Room is generally the quietest area in the evening.

If you think you've lost something, the best option is to come to the bar in person and ask our team. This is faster than calling. We do keep a lost property box.
