This is a typical Swiss tea room - confiserie that also is part chocolatier, patissier, and…read moretraiteur. It is a quaint place to sit down and order a drink and/or bite to eat or grab something to take away and enjoy during your stroll through town. Once you have been in several Swiss tea rooms you get over the initial shock of an abundant amount of choices looking at you on the other side of the glass counter. You start to get a feel for what places have an above average quality selection to choose from. This place had an abundant amount of sweet and savoury options, but they definitely were not of the typical basic calibre. I chose a sandwich for takeaway and was not disappointed. It was one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. I week later, I can still taste the amazing flavors and the perfect texture and taste of the fresh baked bread. During the warm months they even have a nice area to sit outside and enjoy their treats. We noticed many people there getting yummy looking drinks. I would definitely stop here again.

This was delicious, and even better when I dunked it in the coffee. Great service, lovely place -- give it a try.

This is by far one of the worst person in the entire country. Not sorry that this place is…read morereceiving 1stars by allows such horrible person to work there. We had such a positive experience in France and all it takes is one POS to have such poor attitude toward paying customers. Don't care how good the food is but when this imbecile purposely go out of her way to ensure she gets her way. That's just pure evil. The food and drinks were basic at best. Water down. Don't support this type of business. Do better by hiring the kind people to represent your business.

On our last day in Basel, before we started our Viking Cruise, we decided to wander out for…read morebreakfast instead of doing the Hotel's buffet again. We found this option on Yelp, and it is a pretty cool building and very quaint inside. Unfortunately, the person behind the counter, and our server, did not speak any English...and we didn't speak German. And the menu was in German. So we really struggled to order our breakfast. But they were friendly, and we did manage to order something that we were okay with. However, in hind sight, we should have just stood at the counter and pointed to something in the display case to get the pastry or egg dish we wanted. Oh well, maybe next time!

Awesome breakfast!

The jam was delightful and the hot chocolate was good too! It came in a tea pot with my breakfast and there was enough for both my husband & I. You need to have a vaccination card to eat here. We had a lovely experience!
