Kreissaal Bern

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 Bern

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.

Effinger – Workers unite!

"Effinger" Bern is an innovative co-working space. It's very close to the city center somewhere where shops have been empty for years. Great for meetings.

About me

Born and deeply rooted in the picturesque city of Bern, equipped with an insatiable curiosity for culture and culinary delights. Always searching for urban stories and tales - once as a history student, later as a journalist an now as a political advisor.

Why Bern - Bern is known as the slowest city in the world, the music capital of Switzerland, it has the best urban swimming river I know, a giant anarchist culture temple in the middle of the city and – yes – it's a UNESCO World Heritage site. I find that quite impressive for a town of 140,000 people…
