I would like to know if you know any friendly, nice and open minded spätis owners in Berlin?
Why? I'm a photographer and as a personal project, I would like to do a photo documentary about spätis and spätis owners in Berlin. I'd like to get started with welcoming owners but further into the project I'll likely visit random ones.
Very thankful if anyone has met an extremely nice owner who might be keen to get their picture taken (of course they will get the portrait for free if they want to).
honestly the dude at späti am u-bhf eberswalder strasse is super chill, i've seen him let people hang out and chat for ages. he's got this kinda laid back vibe that would prob work well for portraits. also the older turkish guy at the one on pappelallee near the mauerpark entrance is really sweet once you get him talking, just go in the afternoon when it's quiet.
fwiw i'd avoid the big chains like the ones on torstr, the staff there are usually over it and rushing. the best ones are tucked away on side streets, like the tiny place on dunckerstrasse between eberswalder and danziger. the owner there always remembers regulars' orders which is a good sign for openness. just bring some cash and buy a beer first before asking about photos.
oh the guy at the späti on weserstr in neukölln near the hermannplatz end is proper friendly, always has music playing and will chat about anything. he's got this cool old-school setup inside with loads of random stuff on the shelves, would make for great photos. just go on a weekday evening when it's less busy
just ask at the one on oudenarder str near leopoldplatz, the owner there is a quiet older dude who lit up when i asked about his cigarette display. he's got this whole system of old tin signs and weird lighters, probably be into a photo if you show genuine interest in
