Tuchlaube is an evening and after-Theater bar in Aarau, Switzerland. The bar is very well known…read moreamong intellectuals and playwrights. Usually the place is empty until 4pm. After that, the place takes reservations for tables - if you show up after that time you will need to sit outside or stand at the bar. Tuchlaube serves local (light) beers some whiskeys and tea/coffee, as well as small bites like burgers, sandwiches and flat-dough pizzas. The interior is hip, bright and the ceiling slopes to the back. The wait staff are clueless. There were big mistakes in our waiters' knowledge of basic prices for beers and food (I was overcharged). After we dined, I was also charged 2 Francs for 'mineral' water - when I specifically asked for tap! That is a trick waiters pull in Europe to up the bill amount.
Nevertheless, Tuchlaube is a funky and bright bar with lots of chatter. The bar didn't sell the whiskey I had felt like drinking. Come to Tuchlaube for a quick hot tea on a cold day - or sit outside in the summer. Now all you have to do is find it!
