    It was one of the most tastiest salad I ever eaten. 🥰 The pulled pork pita was great too from what my husband said. The service was good and good music. 👍

    Our first dining experience in Switzerland was here. The location is small And charming but our server was very accommodating and was able to communicate well with us in English. He was able to recommend an amazing asparagus dish that tasted fresh and was beautifully prepared.

    Be aware: Iced Coffee 8 CHF (plain coffee, sugar and some ice cube that‘s it). There is a public fountain near by. Perfect clean water for free - enjoy.

    Very quaint spot to stop and get a drink with family and friends. Off the Taurus path by a few blocks, but well worth the visit. The prices are reasonable and the service is exceptional. They do speak English if that is your primary language. They also have the crests of each Canton shown in hand painted stained glass windows.

    Very, very poor service compared to other places in Luzern. Understaffed. You cannot order or pay at the bar so are forced to wait for the servers (we waited 30m). My friend nicely asked the manager where we could order and was told 'If you don't like it you can leave'. Rude and unprofessional from the manager, especially as the food and drinks are average at best for the price. Also, on a previous visit we were told the tap water costs 2CHF per small glass. There's litterally a free, clean fountain in the seating area so this is an awful, nonsensical, money-grabbing rule. The city tour guides I know all now suggest avoiding this place. And heading round the corner.

    Great music and atmosphere, also great nibbles, at least the menu is creative and different from the usual stuff you find in other places. Fantastic service.

    I got the pumpkin soup and cheesecake. Both were absolutely delicious. I'm not usually a fan of pumpkin but this was something else. Verry good.

    Nice vibe. Cool decor. Good music. I only had olives and wine here on a Tuesday afternoon but the ambiance, service, and decor were great.

    Great little bistro next to a fountain at a fork in the road. It had a bit of atmosphere, and the service was fast and friendly. The menu was accessed by a QR code on the table, allowing you to see pictures and costs of everything. Interesting food menu & drinks list did not disappoint! We had a delicious beetroot risotto and asparagus cordon bleu. Only downside was the number of people smoking at tables, but this seems relatively common in Switzerland.

    Cozy surroundings and attentive staff make this eatery a good choice. Staff was friendly and welcoming, it was the perfect stop for a quick afternoon bite on a rainy day. I would definitely recommend.

    My daughter had a wonderful birthday here, thank you so much! Such a wonderful place in the historic city of Lucerne. We'll definitely come back again. The food is amazing and the coffee too.

  • 4/5 Liza S. 2 years ago on Google
    Great for drinks. Finally a place that had music and good lighting. Every restaurant we walked in had horrible ambience this place was very cool.

  • 5/5 Gabriela F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great bar, cool place in the oldtown and alternative people! Wonderful variety of craft beers and tasty food. Definitely recommended!

  • 5/5 Jonathan K. 3 years ago on Google
    Good service, fun ambiance, delicious fish burger! Oh. And a nicely varied beer selection

  • 5/5 Antony R. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely spot and surprisingly good food. Customers were happy (usually a good sign) and my chicken salad was full of all sorts of ingredients and hit the mark

  • 4/5 Emma T. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best burgers I have ever had. Good service, nice terrace. Perfect for lunch in the sunshine.

  • 4/5 Mali M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a nice lunch on the Terrasse. The food is really good but the portions are on the smaller side (and it's not cheap either). We asked for butter to go with the bread and were told they couldn't bring any. As well, we were three friends (2 girls and 1 boy), and they gave the juice to the girls and the IPA beer to the boy without asking if the order was right... can this girl have her beer please 💁🏼‍♀️.

    Very friendly staff! The selection of beer and drinks is very good! Great food and atmosphere. It's one of the best and most affordable locations in Luzern!

  • 2/5 Jamie 1 year ago on Google
    Advertised prices are low but we paid 16 fr for 2 jars of tap water and 10 for “mineral”. Bread was handed out no questions asked but billed. The food is good but portions are small. You will likely leave feeling that you paid more than you thought for less food than you thought

  • 5/5 Mike C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food and moderately priced. Staff are friendly and accommodating. The chef obviously cares what he prepares and everything we had was tasty and well presented. Definitely worth a visit for late lunch or light supper and a beer.

    Good vibes, lots of love, my second home :)

😠 NEVER AGAIN. A place that sells counterfeit alcohol. I ordered a glass of gin at the bar, paid for it and after just one sip felt extremely high. It did not taste right either (I know both how the real gin tastes and how the fake alcohol tastes - oily and chemical). I asked the barlady to change it...
