via Stay22About this place Böse Buben
Böse Buben is one of Berlin's oldest gay fetish and cruise clubs, running continuously since 1997.
You'll find it in Sachsendamm, a bit out of the way, but that's part of the point. This place is for adults who know what they're looking for, a spot to explore and play in a club setting. It's not for everyone, but then, Berlin's gay scene has room for all kinds of adventurous nights.
They're open Wednesday through Sunday, but the hours shift, so always hit their website first. They keep things interesting with themed nights throughout the month: think suit parties, sportswear nights. It's a chance to dress up and connect with people who are into the same scene.
Berlin's gay clubs are famous for being open-minded and experimental, and Böse Buben certainly fits that mold. If you're after an adults-only space with specific interests and a calendar full of themed events, it's worth checking out. Just remember to check their site for event details, house rules, and any dress code before you go.

The right men in the right place. Guys, just as you dreamed them!
I had a terrible time. The guy who works at the entrance and the bar yelled at me for no reason, even though it was my first time there and I was visiting Berlin. He was incredibly rude and a jerk. I don't recommend going. They smoke a lot and the smell of cigarettes is awful. The only good thing was that I met and spent time with a very handsome boy.
I just went in then out, oldies were partying 😂 i arrived for wrestling he told me it was yesterday i wasn’t sure i was thinking its on 3rd of April but anyway i didn’t want to stay anyway! The guy at the bar i felt he was rude so left! Its okay maybe next time i shall be bose aswell 😂
Great themed-night club in the Schöneberg neighborhood with 3 floors for playing, ground floor bar and smoking area. Crowd is nicely diverse and international. Staff is in general nice, with some few exceptions (the welcome varies a lot depending on the actual team). Place is usually inhabited by regulars, mostly into bdsm and other fetish themes. Check theme beforehand and dress accordingly. That said, you will find nice friends and hot action here. Few starts less in review for some minor cleaning issues, just as with some bugs issue (did see some crawling creatures on the floor, and they were definitely not human...). Those issues solved and a more professional trained staff - standardized customer attention would bring it to 5. Expect no queues, except in big events (for those, buy tickets in advance). Cards accepted, lockers and towels available.
Is sex safe? I mean, could I get a sexually transmitted disease inside a nightclub?
