Drinks and Eats

Set in the building of a former bank this is one of the few places in town where you don't have to buy anything. That, and the free wifi make it a favourite of students and business people alike.

Popular hangout for the local bohemians. French styled cafe with some small snacks you can wash down with a nice glass of wine. Actually one of my favourite places in town.

This is one of those modern food court places with small inidvidually run food stalls with an international flavour: Thai, Mexican etc... It's spacious and comfortable. Not somewhere I go so often but a lot of people love it. Like a lot of places in Basel, food is generally served only over lunch and dinner.

Food Scene

This one is in the Guide Michellin and all at reasonable prices for Switzerland. If you're a brit feeling homesick try their fish and chips. It'll rival anything you get back home!

Hidden in a beautiful courtyard this is a great place to rest from the bustle of town shopping. If you want a big coffee in a bowl, ask for the "Grosse Schale".

Just around the corner from the flat an excellent place for brunch. Good coffee and very tasty food. Can be a bit slow if it's busy, but I always find it well worth the wait. And food is served as long as it's open. Currently open from morning to mid afternoon. My favourite place to eat.

There's no shortage of bars, restaurants and retail here. Open all days. I don't actually personally recommend it, but you'll always find something to drink and eat. On a Sunday it might be the easiest option.
