Blink and you will pass right by this one man mini market and grill, as it is set back into the building a bit from the main pedestrian street. During the summer it is easier to spot as they have tables out door to sit, during the winter there are only three tables on the inside, that everyone sits around, even next to strangers. Another clue you have come across this place are the three large chalkboard menu's on the outside, one devoted to their salads, another to their vast burger list, and the other for everything else.
I have had this place bookmarked to try for sometime, ever since I heard they serve fish and chips. It is not common to find places in Switzerland that serve good fish and chips, so when you find a good one, it is a treasure find. My husband and I had a craving for fish and chips which is why our stomachs led us here. As the place was crowded we befriended a stranger and shared his table with him. The owner was friendly and let us bring our dog in the cramped space as well. We waited while the owner fried us up some fresh chips and fish, and I watched him make the tartar sauce by hand. It was a good thing we were hungry, because the plates were heaping with yummy food. The fish and chips were the best I have had in Switzerland, and the tartar sauce made my all time top 5 favourite sauce list.
I will definitely be coming back to try one of the yummy looking burgers. It also helps that the service is friendly, the owner also speaks English which is a bonus, and he is very proud of his special little place. He was sharing with us that most of the furniture is from a previous restaurant that was there and is over 100 yrs old.
