Steinhalle - Bern

Don't be fooled by the announced open hours no food will be served to you before 11:30AM, even not a basic affogato dessert consisting of an espresso shot and ice cream from their fridge. The only thing available before 11:30AM basic drinks on the menu, which is neither extensive not inspiring in this part. The coffee, though, is good. The milk used for the cappuccino tasted like UHT Ultra High temeperature) one. A disappointment, unfortunately :

Delicious dishes I took salad and local cake with latte

Our most favourite restaurant in Bern. We've been regulars here since years and can't find a single thing to complain about it.

What should a lunch break be like? Cozy and inviting atmosphere, delicious and soothing food and good company. The Steinhalle restaurant fulfills the first two points with flying colors, and I'm happy to take care of the third point myself. With that in mind: see you next time.

We were there for coffee small lunch. The waitress offered us to try their homemade kimchi. We had sweet desserts which didn’t really fit with the kimchi and said we’re not interested. After her insisting we try it, we got a tiny portion which they tried to charge us for in the end (and I didn’t agree to pay). scrolling through some of the comments here make me realize they do it regularly there, so I’ll skip the next visit. Beware of the kimchi scam!
