After a long day hiking with 22K steps and approx 31 flights of stairs, I was ready for a hearty…read moredinner and cold beer. I arrived when most tables were full and yet was quickly seated within 10 minutes. The servers were all super friendly and as I knew already what I wanted to eat, it was choosing my beer flight from Hüsi brewery that was "hard." I ordered a flight with the Helles, Hefeweizen, Strawberry Cider (sadly they were all tapped out it's so popular, so I went with traditional hard cider) and the Double IPA. I love beer. Especially when it's served super cold on a hot and humid day with exercise. There wasn't a beer (or cider) in this bunch that I did not LOVE. Mind you, if I wasn't so tired and a lightweight, I would have tried more of the offerings on the menu. The Helles was so light, clean and crisp-as it should be. The Hefeweizen had all the right aromas and flavors. The Cider was very good: not too dry, but definitely not sweet. The double IPA was also excellent. I am not a huge fan of IPAs (often taste like the pith of a grapefruit to me due to the Hops), but I do like doubles and triples and this one hit the spot, with a gentle citrusy taste and crisp mouthfeel. While I waited for my ribs, I saw a couple near me got the Schweinhaxe, aka Pork Knuckle. Mind you, this is one of my favorite Bavarian Dishes that I can also get in Rhineland and it never disappoints. The one I saw served (and took a photo of), was the LARGEST I have ever seen. The skin looked perfectly brown and crisped and the meat was fork tender (from my observation). The German man seated between the couple and me, said it was the largest he'd ever seen as well. It looked amazing and the couple offered me a taste, but I politely declined-I knew I had a large meal ahead of me. I joked that it must have been some large pig to have had a knuckle that large. My ribs came and they were piping hot (no complaint). The sauce was excellent, as it was tomato forward and not sweet with a hint of spice. The ribs themselves were PERFECTLY cooked. I know someone else who reviewed said theirs were tough (I ordered them anyway) and they were so tender and moist that they literally fell off the bones. The coleslaw was vinegar based (THANK YOU) and refreshing. The fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. If you can't tell by now, I loved everything about this meal. It was also clear I was starving because I inhaled the entire plate of ribs and downed the beers in about 20 minutes. Not very European style of eating, but hunger took precedence. The music was fantastic: a lot of 90s grunge and also some U2, a few other cool bands that ahem, you know, was from my youth. The servers hustle and do a thorough job of being both friendly and helpful. One stopped to have a quick chat with a couple and their cute dog. Two came by to see if my meal was okay. I watched them rush around with food, drinks, and also two different servers cleaned a table after a couple left (the one cleared and cleaned while the other cleaned it again even though it was bare)-so there's no hygiene issues here. I was surprised to see the place cleared out by around 19:15-I expected it to be slammed all night. It was a Monday though and I'm sure the late night crowd was still napping. I would have loved to sit and drink another one of the amazing beer offerings, but as I said, I was beyond tired and worried someone would have to roll me back to my hotel, an 11-minute walk away. Lastly, the prices are unreal for this area. My meal, beer flight and 10% tip (come on, people, 5-10% is welcome in Switzerland-don't forget to show your appreciation), came to 51CHF. That's a bargain. I would absolutely come back here in heartbeat. It's truly a gem. Now to see if they sell their beers in the COOP or Migros so I can take them home...

Hüsi Bierhaus is a restaurant and pub located in central Interlaken. It is close to the walking…read morestreets and shopping areas and just off the main road. There is bar seating, indoor seating, and outdoor seating. There might be a line waiting for a table, and you might get seated quicker if you grab a seat at the bar like we did. The hüsi bbq ribs (35.50 CHF) were huge portions so I would recommend sharing. The sauce was salty and almost tasted like it had curry powder in them. They were tender and fell off the bone pretty easily. The loaded fries (17.90 CHF) were good and standard to others I've had elsewhere except with a lot more jalapeños. They have a lot of beer and ciders on draft, and they also offer a flight if you want to sample multiple kinds. One of the popular dishes is the schweinshaxe (pork knuckle) but it's an even bigger portion and our stomachs wouldn't have been able to handle it. One thing to beware is the 5 CHF charge when sharing either the ribs or the pork knuckle, which prevents people sharing a single dish. The portions are massive which likely means leftovers in that case, so just beware of how much you order and can eat.

But we saw that they had a burger with raclette cheese and that was enough to make it unique! Asllani's specializes in burgers but they have other options if you're not interested. Given that there's a couple thousand reviews on Google, I would recommend getting there early if you have a large group. They don't take reservations and there was already a line before the restaurant opened. Since we had a large group and it was a nice, summer day, we opted to sit on the patio under the shade. The burgers are kind of expensive, compared to the US, but they're big. For an extra 8 CHF, you can make it a combo with fries or salad and coleslaw. I didn't know you could actually pick truffle Parmesan fries for the combo and ended up ordering it separately. The burger itself was really good and I'm not sure if it was the raclette cheese. I think even with any type of cheese, the burger would've been just as delicious. I mean, our entire group had different types of burgers and they all really liked theirs. Highly recommend if you're in the area! It's a nice break if you're trying Swiss cuisine everyday. A couple of notes though: they don't take Amex credit cards and they'll charge for tap water.

We were staying in the…read morearea and while we didn't expect to eat burgers in Switzerland, we walked by every night to large crowds of people so we wanted to see what it was about. We went for dinner and were told that a table for two would take 45 minutes, so we ended up doing takeaway to eat in our hotel room. The raclette burger (17 CHF) was surprisingly good, and I think it was very much because of the cheese. The burger tasted like there was some curry powder in it but I don't know for certain. The caesar salad (22 CHF) was just okay and, crazy enough, it was more expensive than the burger. If you're looking to dine in here, I'd recommend coming early or making a reservation. Because it's on the main street it's a popular spot with occasionally long lines. Getting takeaway might also take some time but it was less than waiting 45 minutes. This is a good spot if you're looking to take a break from eating Swiss food.

Shocking level of unprofessionalism from the staff of waitresses…read more I urgently ran in during a medical emergency and said, "Hey, where's your restroom?! I'll even buy something, I just need a restroom!!" I did greet the employees. "Hey" apparently wasn't the greeting she expected, and she stopped to scold me, "We say HELLO first..." Rather than immediately directing someone in obvious distress to the restroom, she chose to scold me on "etiquette," was reluctant to point me in the right direction, and treated me with unnecessary attitude. Every second spent policing a greeting was a second taken away from helping someone dealing with an urgent medical emergency. After handling the emergency, I returned to make a payment and calmly explained that I had not meant any disrespect and was simply in a difficult situation. Again, I was met with the same lack of empathy from the remaining staff members taking my payment. Everyone is entitled to a basic standard of politeness. What surprised me was the inability to recognize when common sense and basic compassion should take precedence over petty formalities. Uncalled for pettiness and attitude IS bad service AND poor treatment. 0 stars from me. I absolutely started with "Hey!"

Yelp Review 2026 #126:…read more I go to McDonald's in every country I visit to try things we don't have in the US. When I went to McDonald's in Switzerland, they had World Menu Heist - menu items from countries around the world. They had empanadas from Chile, a chicken teriyaki burger and Sakura Sprite from Japan, etc. I went to this location close to Interlaken West on a Sunday because the restaurant I planned on going to for lunch was closed. I was going to try the empanadas but they didn't have them. The Swiss menu also had Nutella doughnuts, McPops (doughnut holes with filling), Biscoff McFlurry, some locations have Nutella sundae, Cailler sundae, and a cheese truffle dipping sauce. I ordered from the kiosk since I don't speak the 3 official languages in Switzerland. I got the chicken teriyaki burger, fries, cheese truffle dipping sauce, and a Biscoff McFlurry. My sister wanted to try Swiss McDonald's too so, we went for dinner. Still no empanadas and they ran out of the cheese truffle dipping sauce! I got nuggets, popcorn McFlurry, and fries. My sister got a chicken sandwich, fries and Biscoff McFlurry. Her McFlurry had waaay more Biscoff than what I got from lunch! No quality control. Booo!!!

We realized too late that there were only 2 small pieces of potatoes in the bag, and there were 3 of us. There was a minimum order for us to get a table. The serving was light.

If you care about the actual food, skip this place. I care about food far more than service, and this place was a huge disappointment. I ordered the beef stew, which my waitress recommended, and the meat was unbearably dry and chewy, not even the gravy could save it. Seriously, it was the worst-quality beef I can remember having at a restaurant. The Pinot Noir was excellent, but that was the only highlight. I had a reservation for 9 and showed up early at 8:45. On the phone they had said the kitchen closed at 9:30, but when I arrived no one attended my table until 8:58, when the waitress rushed over and told me the kitchen closes at 9. Meanwhile, the table next to me placed their order at 9:15 without issue. There was no silverware on the table, and I was never checked on once after my food arrived, which was very frustrating. The most frustrating part is that my meal for one person, including the dish and two glasses of wine, was $50 Franks. For that price, I expect far better quality. I expect better, truly. Please refer to photos for the dry beef stew meat.
