Ma-Lu 15

A friendly Kneipe (local bar) which opened in March 2009 – the domain of affable, effusive and embracing Anke —but which did not enter gay (leather) consciousness until about 2020, when BLUF and FSB (Fetish Social Berlin) started to stage some of their events here. The grey-walled back area (2022 renovation) features both sit-down and cocktail tables and a raised black leather sofa, but the space is dominated by a pool table – a delectably convenient fulcrum for the kind of requisite traditional manliness that powers the bulk of BLUF and FSB events. As of 2023 Anke plans to update the front area. The bar closes when the customers go home. Saturdays can stretch to 4am, with Sunday shutting down at midnight at the earliest. The name 'Ma-Lu 15' (also written as 'MALU15') stems from the address (Martin-Luther-Straße 15).
