Rumor has it that Spindler & Klatt is one of Berlin’s most extraordinary spots. Located directly on the Spree, Spindler & Klatt has been a fixture on the former East-West border for 20 years. The location reduces things to the essentials. It maintains the highest standards of functionality and aesthetics.
Spindler & Klatt is typically Berlin. It is self-confident, diverse, creative, and international.
The implementation of Spindler & Klatt relies on a studio concept. This concept allows it to develop technically and logistically over the years. It stands for special ideas.
Spindler & Klatt offers ample space. The area measures 1600 square meters. The venue is divided into six areas. It can host 50 to 1500 people.
The club area is a highlight. It offers 165 square meters of space. It can host 200 guests for a party. Theater seating is available for 50 guests.
The restaurant stuns with its size and clear lines. The club is small and cozy. It embodies “cozy clubbing”.
A warm lighting atmosphere permeates the club. Incandescent walls and a low ceiling create a pleasant ambiance for about 200 guests. The club can also serve as a VIP area. It can be a second dance floor.
Jesko Klatt is well-known beyond Berlin for Spindler & Klatt. He opened it as a club-restaurant on the Spree. He later created “The Grand”. Now, he is a hotelier with “Chrome Cottage”.
Klatt opened Spindler & Klatt with Frank Spindler in 2004. Spindler now runs Restaurant Spindler. Spindler & Klatt is the epitome of a club restaurant in Germany. It is a pioneer and a long-running success.
Many have tried to mix dining and dancing. Few have succeeded sustainably. Klatt says that the secret is service and a good crew. He employs around 200 people in his businesses.
Klatt got the concept idea during travels in Asia. He discovered large restaurants mixing food, drinks, and dancing. He appreciates good service in clubs and restaurants. He wants to host guests and make their visit an experience.
The perfect transition from restaurant to club is crucial. Klatt’s night manager knows when to open the second floor. They dim the lights, raise the music, and slowly transition the restaurant area. Guests from dinner mix with those arriving to party.
The three-pronged concept of restaurant, club, and event location has ensured success for over twelve years. The combination is relatively safe, Klatt says.
Spindler & Klatt won the FIZZ Award for design in 2005.
