Lokal

Reviewed By TjK-CH

The ambiance was quite nice, Very informal & laid back. However would have preferred if they had few smaller tables. All the tables were shared tables with other customers, bit cafeteria style. The food was okay I would say, the flavors were bit missing. There was no WOW factor. I’m not sure everything is locally produced in Bienne, some of them would do.The waitress who served us was really nice, she was friendly and kind. When we got the bill we were surprised to see 1L of tap water cost 9CHF. That was a bit of a rip off. This is a nice place if you like to have an after work apero with some small bites.Dear TjK-CHThank you very much for this comment. First of all we combine LOKAL products with different stiles/products from other cuisines, that means it is of course not everything produced in Biel. They call it fusion.Water situation: check https://wfw.ch, we spend 10% of water income. Furthermore is our water à discretion (even sparkling...), that means you can drink as much water as you want, for CHF 3.30 (rip off?). I can't follow your mathematics skills that the water was expensiver than alcohol.

Cafe Restaurant de l'Ecluse

Reviewed By fred200099

Unfortunately, there was a problem with the heating system for the restaurant on the night of our visit; otherwise, the dining room was a nice setting. I had the Veloute de Choux-fleur and Rable de Lapin Farci - elegant and very nicely done but not my favorite tastes. Wait staff was agreeable. The seasonal menus are carefully composed with limited choices but nice variation. In retrospect, I would have had the cordon blue with gruyere cheese.

Cafe Bresil

Reviewed By DeebHB

Café Bresil is just across the street from the Train station.I visited this this place in November 2015 and returned there recently.I like this restaurant as it has an honest appearance. Looks, feel and atmosphere corresponds with what you get.Surprisingly however the quality of their food is above average which means that in a positive way it is out of balance.Many locals do visit this restaurant as it is friendly, normal and serving great food in larger then average portions for a very friendly price.I would say after my second visit a place not to miss when in Biel/Bienne

I stopped at Le Nidaux on a Friday night, after a week at a client site, on a whim as the extensive selection of bottles at the bar was visible from the street, and I suddenly felt like I deserved a good single malt. I ended up staying for dinner and I did not regret it.The restaurant is composed of a fancy seating area (which was closed), a more casual (but nice and clean) area with tables in front of the bar, and outside seating (probably not available in winter).On the Friday night I went to Le Nidaux the place was quite full, but service was prompt. I had a plate of Italian cold cuts with parmesan and then glass noodles with seafood. Both dishes came quickly and were excellent as well as being original. The single malt selection was also quite nice, going beyond the 5-6 typical single malts one finds most everywhere.A nice find, just the type of change of pace I needed on a Friday night.
