Restaurant Brauistübli — Restaurant in Matten bei Interlaken

After visiting Harder Kulm we went back to our hotel. The reception suggested to have dinner at Restaurant Brauistübli, a local restaurant just a 3 minutes walk away.

The restaurant was really simple, resembled a kind of a Swiss cottage. The decoration was fun, lots of wood everywhere, witch figurines and some Easter bunnies on the tables. That was probably since Easter had just passed. Overall, it was exactly what we wanted. An authentic and local Swiss restaurant for a delicious cheese fondue outside from the tourist crowd.

The portion was delicious and just right for two people. We tried some Swiss wine, apparently one of the best European wines but made only for locals. We also tried the local beer, in hindsight, very similar to German beer, one style in a white, blonde and dark format.

The bill added up to $52 CAD for two. It was succulent and well deserved cheese fondue after a full day of travel and new adventures.

It was picture perfect, as it started to snow outside. Prior to our arrival we were told it was much warmer and the snow was melting. Now imagine, a chilly evening with a nice cheese fondue, Swiss beer and wine. Finally, a great and friendly service, who was really helpful to understand us and help us out in English.

This small restaurant is a horror!!They are extremely racist and rude.. I walked with my two daughters 5 and 11 years old thinking they would experience some nice ambience and fondu. We reached the restaurant and waited 20 mins to be seated. There were two elderly waitress who didn’t speak English at all and they were yelling at us. As though it’s a crime if you don’t speak Swiss German. I showed her picture of what we want to order. They wanted to serve 4 fondue and one fondue serves 2 people (as per the menu). So I said we will just take 2 fondues. But they insisted I order 4. Not sure why they wanted me to order 4 large fondue (500 Swiss francs). My kids got very scared of their yelling and embarrassed so we decided we will not dine there. I requested for the check and we had to pay 12 Swiss francs in cash for three glasses of water. In this chaos someone stole my scarf. Yes this chaotic visit cost me 700euros. If you are a non white tourist/guest make sure you know the...

Avoid! Went with my family while on holiday. I get the impression that this is a place for brewery workers and locals. Didn’t seem busy, we tried to sit at a table, but were directed to sit on a not very nice table in a dingy corner, lots of horrible flies - the photo is of the ones I managed to squat right next to me while just waiting for my meal - really horrible, table was dirty too. Told seconds before our food arrived that they only take cash (luckily I had just enough to cover our order!). Food and beer was fine, but (as usual for Switzerland) pricey for what is was. Shame as bars next to a brewery are usually pretty good and a showcase for the beers. Not...
