Café like „Lost Weekend" in München?

last week I went to Munich/München and spent 2 days working from a Café called „Lost weekend".
It's a cafe with awesome WiFi, power outlets, music and many seats to sit down and work. It was basically a student co-working space for free. Every evening they also had events like standup comedy, a discussion, a speaker etc.
Is there anything similar in Berlin that comes close to that experience? I have tried some cafes here yet, but none of them come close. They are either too small or too quiet to also have a phone call or cost a lot of money to get a table.
Any advice or recommendation is appreciated!
Have a wonderful Wednesday Wackedi
oh you're looking for that lost weekend vibe. check out betahaus in kreuzberg near moritzplatz. it's basically a coworking space but you can just buy a coffee and hang out all day, good wifi and lots of outlets. they do events too, talks and workshops and stuff, not always comedy but similar energy.
another one is st. oberholz near rosa-luxemburg-platz. it's a bit more polished but same idea, big space, reliable wifi, people working on laptops everywhere. they have a basement area that's quieter for calls if you need it.
if you want the cheap student vibe with events, try c-base in mitte. it's a weird spaceship-themed hacker space, 5 euro donation gets you in all day, they have meetups and talks almost every night. not a cafe but same free working spirit.
yeah i know what you mean, lost weekend is a special spot. check out cafe neumann in friedrichshain, it's got that same messy student energy, power outlets everywhere and you can grab a table for hours with just a coffee. they do small concerts and readings sometimes too, nothing fancy but it works.
honestly, if you liked lost weekend, try sisyphos near frankfurter allee. it's a club but during the day the garden area is open and people work there with laptops, good wifi, cheap drinks. feels a bit like that same chaotic creative energy minus the comedy shows.
for something more cafe-like, check out cafe tata in neukolln on weserstr. it's big, lots of tables, never too quiet for a call, and the wifi holds up. they have events sometimes but not every night like lost weekend.
if you want the event side specifically, look up aufsturz on oranienburger str. it's a bar with readings and comedy and stuff, more pub than cafe but you can work there during the day before things kick off.
What is the correct spelling for a street name that appears differently on multiple signs in Charlottenburg?
Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.
if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point
honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
