About this place MINUS

MINUS at Karolinenstraße 6 in the Karolinenviertel, near the Messe and Sternschanze, is an ice-cream and cocktail bar with house and techno in the evenings. Patroc lists it among Hamburg's LGBTQ venues, and the tourism board calls it queer-inclusive. It is not a gay bar in the St. Georg sense: the crowd is mixed, young and local. It opens daily from 18:00. It suits a first drink before a night in St. Pauli or the Schanze, and the Feldstraße U-Bahn station is a few steps away. Check the bar's channels for DJ nights.

Excellent ice cream, aromatic, creamy, great flavors. The dark chocolate one is probably a sorbet – tastes very good.

I discovered this bar by chance, as they serve unusual ice cream flavors until late at night: Blueberry-Pastis (contains alcohol) Apple-Basil Yogurt-Cherry Mango Praline Plum-Cinnamon My favorite was yogurt-cherry, followed by plum-cinnamon. Apple-basil was also very good and tastes a bit like apple strudel. Overall, I can absolutely recommend this experience to ice cream lovers!

Had a beer after a long day sightseeing and shopping in Hamburg. Great atmosphere, soft lounge sofas outside which made it a very comfortable experience. Kind and helpful staff. Queer friendly and the atmosphere just had great vibes from the start. Would definitely come again!

Great spot for ice cream and cocktails! Nice outdoor space, servers were nice and quick, and they offered vegan ice cream. Have brought friends and they loved it- will definitely be back again!
