The narrow space that houses this little cheese shop became our favorite stop in all of Bern. As a…read morefan of exotic cheeses, we love these stores and seek them out in every country. It's an intriguing way to experience the local culture and its food. Unfortunately, the lady behind the counter didn't speak any English which is rare in such touristy areas in Europe. But she quickly fetched a coworker who was fluent and very helpful! The store has quite an extensive variety of cheeses! Trying a sample of Gruyére, which is available in three different levels of intensity, the middle piquancy won us over. We bought a piece just large enough for my wife and I to enjoy for a snack on the steps outside the store. We highly recommend this lovely place!

We sat outside on the deck and it was a lovely experience. It's an unusual place as it's name suggests German cuisine but the menu is written in French and some of the items have a Swiss influence, others German, others Italian and some French. I suppose it's a Swiss fusion restaurant as all the border influences are present on the menu here ha ha ha. Service is first class and the atmosphere is very casual and nice. I had the vitello tonato which came with a bowl of double fried chips and it was heavenly. The food was amazing and I could have happily licked my plate clean, and I would have, if there was no customer sitting opposite to me ha ha ha Happily come here again and look forward to my next trip. It helps when you have a customer in the area ;-)) This is really good food served in a nice casual atmosphere.

They have an interesting choice of chocolates and cakes. The service is always very friendly and warmhearted. Princess fancy cake is definitely my favourite one. It's a soft cream biscuit cake covered with green marzipan and on top there is a red marzipan rose. They have it in 3 sizes but the small one should be enough for 2 persons. You can buy a bigger one but it's better to eat it in the same day^^ I did also tried other delicious products such as black forest cake, lemon and also orange quark cakes, chocolates etc. Tschirren is a traditional Bern pastry shop and they recently have got competition from Zurich Sprüngli who opened a branch in Berne railway station. The prices are rather averaged considering the very high quality of their products.
