This place is my extended fridge and pantry and hence vital for my survival. There is even a deli…read morecounter with real delicacies. Just to mention a few: fresh feta, hummus, shrimps (yumm!), feta mousse, olives oh and so much more. Always friendly staff from the neighbourhood. Go to this Greek influenced place. You'll discover something you'll love so much you decide you can't live without it (in my case dolmades, stuffed wine leaves). Plus you support the locals and not a chain.

Good basic convenience store; I'd say somewhere in the Denner to Coop Pronto range, maybe a little…read morenicer. A very small selection of fresh fruit and veggies, but they were actually fresh; most of the store is packaged goods (soday, coffee, cookies, crackers), with a significant milk-and-eggs section. A few unusual items like Chai-flavored soy drink. Staff is friendly, and constantly chatting on their cell phones with friends. Very much a job-rather-than-career mindset. A fine convenience store, but not a real draw.

An excellent artisanal brunch in a mellow setting…read more Three of us shared two house-made granola's with yogurt and a Justus Brunch: hot drink, juice, rolls, butter & jam, cheese, sliced aged meats, and eggs (we chose scrambled). The granola & yogurt was excellent (especially the fresh fruit), the eggs fluffy, the cheeses ranging from almost runny to very sharp (there was some debate among the waitstaff as to whether we'd gotten the Sbrinz or Gruyère). In addition, the atmosphere was homey and relaxed --- we felt like we were family friends visiting an old farmhouse, rather than waiting in line for an upholstered booth. The front half of the shop sells most of the same food and ingredients (including real molasses, as opposed to the corn syrup "molasses spread" at some grocery stores). We did notice some of the veggie bins didn't look to have very high turnover --- be sure to check your produce.

I like this place for many reasons. Firstly, this is a good coffee alternative to the Pain…read moreQuotidien chain nearby. It is a mix of a sustainable store within a cafe where you can buy basic organic food either to prepare at home, have some takeaway or stay and sit down at one of the tables. I only had proper lunch once but boy that was very good! It was well spiced and had the taste of "I cooked it with love" in it. So I defenitly want to go back to check out that love flavour again. They usually have one meal with meat and one vegeterian option. Always a daily soup which you may buy to go. They also sell small bakery goods such as cakes, tartes or bagels. They use interesting ingredients, such as brie with some sort of fruit or scamorzza cheese with carrots or beef roast, and much more. They seem to have vegan options, too. Today it was a sandwich with hummus spread. So there is coffee, there is food, nice staff, everything is sustainable but thats not the end of the list yet: the MAGAZINES!!! It is very dangerous for me to sit down and grab a magazine. Because they have a fantastic selection of brain food such as Swiss magazines, newspapers and I always feel tempted to bing read. I just realised: still not the end of the list! There is free wifi. Yes, the world is a good place to live in. STOP! Still not the end of the list: when the weather is warm enough you even can sit outside. Now you're flabbergasted, aren't ya? :) So why not 5 stars? I think there is just a tiny bit of room for improvent and maybe one day I will change it to 5 stars.

Great place to pick up some fennel, strawberries, Bündnerfleisch, or Alpkäse. The bread is quite good --- close to Steiner, and better than most dedicated bakeries. There's a hot-food counter as well, if you need a pick-me-up on a cool day. One caution: between about 12:00 and 14:00 during the week, the place is mobbed with local high schoolers, and some college kids; be prepared to throw some elbows to get to the produce scale or cash register.

Finally an organic / eco grocery store in the city center !…read more I already went to the one in Wipkingen, but it is to far to always go there. Now you can do it all in the city. You can really do all your shopping here if you want. The staff is friendly, but I expected a bit more of enthusiasm, the store is brand new so a bit of more joy would be nice :) The great thing is here, you can taste everything. They have at every corner something to try out. I ended up buying more then what I was looking for. Really happy they made it till the city !
