Cuba Bar, restaurants along the Framgasse and Rathausgasse
For good eats check out... 08 Mar 2011 Colin, England & Wales:
Denner Supermarkets: For travellers on a tight budget, Denner offer a range of discount goods that work out much cheaper than many of the takeaways in the area. (The nearest to Bern hostel is above the Migros on Marktgasse, about ten mins walk away - Ask hostel staff for directions.)
08 Mar 2011 Colin, England & Wales:
According to other travellers whom I met at the hostel; Zurich, Interlaken and Lausanne are all very popular destinations for those touring Switzerland, and I can certainly vouch for Zurich. All three cities (And indeed, most Swiss destinations) are very quick and easy to reach by rail from Bern using SBB InterCity services. Top tip: For those touring Switzerland by rail, a "Half fare card" (50% discount on rail fares - Also known as a "Half-tax" card) is well worth buying for the discounts that it offers both on SBB trains and a number of mountain railways. This is available from all SBB mainline stations, and is best bought alongside your first travel ticket.
For great nightlife try... 19 Feb 2011 BAHTIAR, England & Wales:
Starbuck is the best place to get free wifi otherwise you need to pay CHF4 per hour offered by the hostel.
