So close and so good! If you ask us, this is the best Take Away ever. You can order "pinsas" (very recommendable, our evergreen is the "Nerone"), focaccias, small salads or home-made tiramisù!

The coziest café in town! A great place to have an organic breakfast or snack, a great range of teas and soft drinks. Jalil, the owner, has a great taste and likes to chat with its customers.

In summer, stroll along the river and buy a drink at a so-called "Buvette". My favourite is the Oetlinger-Buvette (near the Johanniterbrücke), there you can even grill your own sausages.
