Housed in the former Alexandraplatz Bar, Wills Bar is the brainchild of cousins Ethan and Alex Wills, who transformed their long-held microbrewery dream into reality. This Mile Ex venue offers a sophisticated, welcoming spot featuring a large terrazzo bar and striking light fixtures. With a focus on easy-drinking, balanced beers and a thoughtfully curated wine and cocktail list, Wills Bar emphasizes quality and community. The industrial-chic decor, designed by Annika Krausz, retains the garage’s historical charm while adding European flair. As a family-run business, Wills Bar aims to become a neighborhood staple, drawing in locals and visitors alike.
