Ô Capitaine Bern
Best brunch spot in town
Sarah from Bern
Who doesn't love brunch? At Ô Capitaine you'll find everything your heart desires and more!
Every Sunday from 9:30 - 15:00 you can have an extensive breakfast and help yourself to the varied buffet. What I particularly like about this brunch is the variety of the food.
In addition to the dishes for a classic Swiss breakfast with "Züpfe" (plaited, white bread which is eaten in Switzerland mainly on Sundays) and jam, there is a large cheese platter, many different sweet and salty spreads, differently marinated vegetables, salty pastries, fruits, sweets such as macaroons and so much more. The ambience invites you to linger. I love to sit on the cozy terrace on a warm summer day. If you like brunch, you can't miss Ô Capitaine. Be sure to reserve a table in advance, this spot is very popular.

Burrito Bandito
L.A. street food in Bern
The owner (from California) wanted to bring yummy, healthy Californian-Mexican soul food from back home to Switzerland. And let me tell you, he did!

Bursting Tree Mural
Reclaim The City
Nature is claiming back the city - a powerful image. The mural was painted by Paul Stämpfli in 1987, way before the world was discussing climate change.

Tram Nr. 8
Go West!
Hop on "Tram Nr. 8" at the main station for a 25min ride through the post-war urban planning history of Bern. It gets interesting around Europaplatz...

Kopflos
Mind the step
"Kopflos" ('headless') at Casinoplatz in Bern is my favourite piece of art in the city's public space. I love its four fingers!

Chindlifresser
Free drinks
"Chindlifresser" in Bern is a gruesome 500-year-old statue of a 'child-eater', but it's also one of my favorite cold-water providers in the whole city!

Zytglogge-Pissoir
One for the boys
"Zytglogge-Pissoir" in Bern is a place for gents to pee around the clock on the medieval watchtower. Where else can you pee on a 500-y.o UNESCO site?

La Chouette
Crèpe-a-porter
"La Chouette" Bern is a small, cozy, woody restaurant that makes the best crepes around! Make sure to try both sweet & salty! Open until late on weekends.

Kreissaal
Late Night Cocktails
Their house specialties "Black Cuban" (a rum coffee cocktail) and "Fado" (port wine and whiskey) are worth spoiling yourself for.

Trallala
Where The Wild Wines Are
I especially like that they have about a dozen bottles by the glass and that they offer you to try several wines before you settle for a good drop.
