Steinhalle - Menu

I just went for tea time, to have a coffee and a dessert

Our most favourite restaurant in Bern. We've been regulars here since years and can't find a single thing to complain about it.

Die Karte der Steinhalle ist klein aber fein. Das schöne Ambiente in den alten Mauern des Historischen Museums lädt zu einem gemütlichen Abend mit Freunden ein. Sehr empfehlenswert ist die Auswahl an Tatar. View menu

Highly Recommended. The food, the service, everything was perfect. We were there during the Japan theme. Perfect wine pairing, with every course someone came and told us something about the dish and the ingredients. We'd love to come back.

What should a lunch break be like? Cozy and inviting atmosphere, delicious and soothing food and good company. The Steinhalle restaurant fulfills the first two points with flying colors, and I'm happy to take care of the third point myself. With that in mind: see you next time.

Das Lokal ist sehr schön, und auch draussen unter den alten Bäumen ist es gemütlich. Die Karte ist klein und unspektakulär, passend für ein Bistro. Die Qualität des Essens ist ok, aber auch nicht mehr. Das Personal ist freundlich, aber die Wartezeiten etwas gar lang. Die Preise sind angemessen. View menu

This is one of my favourite places in Bern. I have been here a couple of times, for brunch, lunch and dinner and was happy every time. The last occassion I visited the restaurant was for brunch on a sunday. We loved sitting in the shade of the trees, the food was well selected and fine. Service great, everyone friendly as usual. I recommend everyone to enjoy this place one and then I am sure you will come back :

Don't be fooled by the announced open hours no food will be served to you before 11:30AM, even not a basic affogato dessert consisting of an espresso shot and ice cream from their fridge. The only thing available before 11:30AM basic drinks on the menu, which is neither extensive not inspiring in this part. The coffee, though, is good. The milk used for the cappuccino tasted like UHT Ultra High temeperature) one. A disappointment, unfortunately :

We were there for coffee small lunch. The waitress offered us to try their homemade kimchi. We had sweet desserts which didn’t really fit with the kimchi and said we’re not interested. After her insisting we try it, we got a tiny portion which they tried to charge us for in the end (and I didn’t agree to pay). scrolling through some of the comments here make me realize they do it regularly there, so I’ll skip the next visit. Beware of the kimchi scam! View menu
