With great attention to detail and a real feel-good atmosphere, DasArti invites you to take a cozy break from everyday life and inspires with a very special interior. "I wanted to create a place where art and music are in the air, a meeting place for interesting and creative people who can share ideas," says owner Yelena Sindyeyeva (Olena Leitner), describing the realization of her dream. Comfortable seating areas with colorful accents, Yelena's impressive works of art on the wall and an outdoor area that can be used in any weather - this is where Karlsruhe residents can relax. 

There is room for individual expression and taste, and everyone who dives in becomes part of a lively, creative network.

"We offer snacks, cakes, coffee specialties and, of course, a large menu of in-house cocktails, classics and weekly/monthly changing specials," explains Benedikt Schumacher - bar manager and managing director of DasArti. The team attaches great importance to quality: "We have selected the best coffee beans from over 25 premium coffee beans in order to offer our guests and ourselves a pleasantly nutty and mild taste," explains Benedikt. Coffee specialties are the main focus at DasArti, especially in the mornings and afternoons. Matcha Latte, Latte Pistacchio and Iced Ruby Chocolate Moccha Latte are currently particularly popular and are complemented by changing treats such as

  • Pistachio eclairs
  • Elderberry croissants
  • Apple pie
  • Passion fruit tart
  • or afternoon tea snacks

be completed.

Signature cocktails for the people of Karlsruhe

In the afternoon, DasArti transforms into a cozy lounge that delights with first-class cocktail creations by bar manager Benedikt and takes you into the mysterious world of flavours. The signature cocktails, which are DasArti's calling card with their taste, will make your taste buds beat faster: from a tiramisu cocktail to a new interpretation of daiquiri in the form of raspberry brandy with rosemary, blackberries and currants, to "Burn me Amadeus", the liqueur-based cocktail that combines Mozart Dark Chocolate with Grand Manier and smoky Islay whisky. "All the base spirits and liqueurs, such as the "Hazelnut Brandy Cold Brew liqueur" or "Blood Orange Triple Sec", are produced and blended by us. We also spent a long time tasting and experimenting to guarantee the highest quality and the ideal taste for us," reveals Benedikt.

The Karlsruhe meeting place for art and pleasure

The DasArti team has a lot planned for the people of Karlsruhe in the future: "Our club concept in the basement will be ready in late summer - the lower area will be transformed into our night lounge. We will also be organizing salsa, bachata and kizomba evenings directly in the Kaiserpassage on Saturdays, where everyone is invited to dance and party. On Sundays, we will then offer various program items that require registration, from art master classes to tastings and workshops. The aim is to bring people together who are interested in art and enjoyment and want to have a good time together," says Benedikt.

Visit this wonderful café, which becomes the Liquid Kitchen Bar in the evening, and indulge in delicious new interpretations and creations at DasArti!
