Newton Bar

MITTE. A classic West Berlin watering hole, Newton juxtaposes the classy with the avant-garde. The interior features comfortable leather armchairs, cool marble, blond wood, and a crescent-shaped bar set against a seductive backdrop of floor-to-ceiling, black-and-white Helmut Newton nudes. Indeed, young, well-dressed professionals place such high stock in Newton that they bring their international clients to sip wine, check out the action on Gendarmenmarkt, and close the deal. That is, if they make it past the doorman! Cigar aficionados, meanwhile, find safe-haven in the upstairs lounge, whose humidor features primo cigars imported from Cuba and the Dominican Republic.
