We visited this local cafe twice during our visit. Their coffee was very nice and piping hot and…read moretheir Avacado toast with egg was delicious. I also had their croissants and they were buttery, flaky, delicious... The siting area is small but comfortable, the outside area by the river looks very inviting but it was too cold for us to sit outside when we visited. Would recommend to anyone looking for a smaller option with less tourists (besides us, of course : )

Nice for Capuccino, pancakes, fresh juices and internet. They also have several sandwiches and…read morepretty good croissants!

Thankfully, it was nice outside and they had patio seating! The food itself was good, but I think it was a bit pricy for the portion size.

Food was amazing and the staff was very friendly! All vegetarian food would 100% visit again!read more

We shared the strawberry sorbet and meringue dessert which was AMAZING! Highly recommend checking this place out, especially if you're just stopping for dessert. The service was good and seating outside provided for some nice ambiance right in the downtown area. The only drawback outside is that smoking is aloud.

Such a special place. Please sit outside if the weather is nice. The tea, coffee, and Susanne and…read moreAndreas Frutiger's desserts are precious and reasonably priced. Meringue is known for Meringues. Try the Birewegglis, the Linzertörtli, the cute Tatzelwurm, and the various gorgeous pastries. Yummy.

This cozy little bar & diner in the heart of Aarau combines my two favorite things: vintage…read morecocktails and burgers. The cocktail menu is extensive, and you will need a while to browse through it to find your medicine of choice. I chose a classic dirty Martini. The martini was ok. I would have liked it a bit more "dirty" and it only had one olive (I like mine with three massive blue cheese stuffed olives - yes, I am part american) but I am sure that had I asked for a bit more olive juice and a few more olives, they would have obliged. The food menu is short and to the point, this makes decision making easy! I have now tried two burgers off the menu and both have been FANTASTIC... and I am picky! The meat was perfectly cooked and juicy and the accoutrements were perfect. This combined with the really warm and intimate feel of the place has made it my new favorite hang-out. Only thing missing... the bookcase hiding the stairwell to this new Aarau Speakeasy!

Our favorite tea shop in the world! My girlfriend is from Colmar, but we live in the US. We go to…read moreColmar around twice per year, and each time we make our way to L'Essence Du Thé and stock up on tea for the next 6 months! We haven't found any other tea store (even in New York) with such an interesting selection of teas and such friendly, knowledgable staff. Try their herbal mixes. Also, it's a great place to order a cup of tea, sit back, and relax.
