cafe zapata berlin


``Located on the ground floor of Tacheles, the legendary squat-turned-cultural center, Zapata is a weird, wonderful and way-out establishment typical of Berlin's alternative scene. Decorated with metal and barbed wire, tins and trash art, it is all fairly surreal. ``

``Located in the legendary Tacheles, the alternative art center on Oranienburger Straße, is a cafe that is just as unusual: the Cafe Zapata. The Cafe Zapata´s interior was designed by artists from the neighbouring galleries and studios and is a popular hangout for the alternative scene. Metal objects, bare walls and a rough industrial charm are what's most striking about this location, that and such gimmicks as a dragon with integrated flamethrower over the bar that is randomly spitting fire. The Cafe Zapata is not a stylish design bar, but a Berlin landmark that's ideal for a few beers before hitting the clubs around there.``
