Pinocchio is a small, old-fashioned corner bar in the heart of Berlin-Schöneberg's gay quarter, a few steps off Nollendorfplatz. The room is intimate and unpretentious, with a side area that holds a couple of games machines, and the pace is unhurried, closer to a neighbourhood local than a nightlife stop. It has kept its place on Fuggerstraße for decades and is still listed among Berlin's gay venues by Mann-O-Meter, the city's LGBTQ+ counselling organisation.
