They were kind enough to find us a seating overlooking the Aare river. The Aare river which surrounds the old city of Bern, so the view is spectacular. We saw a heron sitting out on the water.

They had some Asian influenced dishes. The waitress were friendly. We got some small tasting complimentary from the chefs. A favorite spot for lunch/ dinner. Also plenty of seating inside and outside. Great for groups as well. A must visit for a spectacular experience

For entrees we ordered basil gnocchi with mozzarella in a creamy lemon sauce then ricotta ravioli in a bright tomato sauce. Everything was delicious. We were too full for dessert, but their tiramisu looked yummy. It was a nice dining experience.

It's also way overpriced I feel idk if this is what I should expect with fondue but I wasn't a fan. Service was friendly, google mentioned they are open until 11.30 but seems like their kitchen is closed by 9ish they only accommodated us because we wanted fondue. Ambiance seems nice for a dinner out.

The restaurant is warm, clean, and nicely decorated. The food came quickly and was absolutely delicious. I had the sausage with potatoes and my companion had the rissoto and both were soooo good!

Very accommodating restaurant in the old city of Bern…read more I arrived at Restaurant Schmiedstube at about 7:45 p.m. on a Thursday evening and was immediately seated. I was able to get a menu with a partial English translation (my German is too limited to order much beyond sausages and cutlets). The restaurant offered a modest but sufficient selection, including several standard Bern dishes. There was also a decent selection of wines. I ordered pan-fried trout topped with apples and served on rosti that was very good. The fish was excellently done, and the rosti was good, if a bit oily. The prices were reasonable--CHF 43.20 for dinner, two glasses of wine, and pear sorbet. There are enough good choices on the menu to make this a great place for a family or group.
