Restaurant Altes Tramdepot Review

absolutely great! Weisswurst unfortunately not like that.

Service is slow but once you order your food and beer comes quickly. Great view. Decent prices for Switzerland

Great beer and service but the food needs definitely to be improved. The location is very good at all and there are a lot of tourists.

5 francs or 5 euros per cup of beer. In the center of Bern, in a beautiful location - affordable price.

A great place to grab a beer and some bites and enjoy the atmosphere with friendly staff. They also have some vegan-friendly options.

There is a large and good selection of local and home-brewed beer. The view of the city and the historic building is a plus. But the prices are rather expensive! If the prices were more adjusted, more local guests would go to the old tram depot. So are tourists and companies in particular.

Very cool place indeed. Highly recommended. In clear proxmity to the bears place. They have their own brewery with excellent beer

Delicious food, very fine beer, cozy atmosphere, just cool!

Excellent variety of craft beers, good service, to accompany a bretzel or also enjoy the varied offer of the professional kitchen.

Good uncomplicated restaurant with good food, the homemade beer brand is excellent.

Top location with a view of the lower old town and the former bear pit. Cozy restaurant and huge garden terrace. Varied beer specialties and fine classic dishes. We will be back regularly and soon!

Nice place with good food. Located in the tourist info centre with a souvenir kiosk

Good food, portions too large for me. Fine beer, beer garden ambience

Good food and great beer. BUT: When reserving online, it is noted that you have two hours before you have to vacate the table again, and that is actually how it is done. We were shown at the door exactly after two hours. As a customer, you feel like you are in a mass processing. Pity!

Edit: The 2h stay has not only existed since Corona, but has been for much longer. Incidentally, on numerous of my visits I have noticed that the beer is usually poured slightly under the calibration in the glass. Pay more attention to it. Nevertheless, I always like to come back.

Great atmosphere, uncomplicated, family-friendly, fast / good service, nice to sit outside ...
Come back !

Beautiful place I have been there this summer and there is a magnificent view the cube is very good and you can also see bears walking underneath in the garden truly a place to see if you are in Bern

Good food, good beer, great location. Greetings to Tenzin, see you in January.

Wonderful food, great ambience and very friendly staff

Quick service, flirty staff, good food with a great view.

The team is very friendly and also jokes with the guests.
Despite many guests, you feel very comfortable. I personally found the volume to be pleasant because the room was very large. The food was very good and was served quickly. Looking forward to the next visit :)

Great local-style food, great service, very good home-brewed beer. Loved it!

Very nice location with a gigantic view. Brew your own beer. Food is also very tasty. Would always come back!

I've been there several times. They have very delicious food and is also a cozy place for an after-work beer. It should be noted that it usually has a lot of people, so to be sure, better reserve.

Everything great!
Location, beer, food, service, price / performance

Good beer, service sometimes a bit "unhappy / overwhelmed". Very nice view of Bern

Great food, great beer, lovely location, but the service is often rather slow or inattentive

Best beer in town (from our own brewery). Food is also ok, but unfortunately the restaurant is hopelessly crowded, especially on weekends.

Not like it used to be. Apart from the (forgetful, unfriendly) service, the quality of the food has unfortunately decreased in recent years.

Very good beer, very good burgers. Good Covid protection concept. Always happy to come back.

The place is very pretty well located. Nice setting. But the food was poor and little choice.

Super friendly service! Delicious food and beer is the Hanmer !!

Beer delicious! The food could be a lot fresher and tastier.

I felt like eating on the slopes!

Nice atmosphere, excellent beer selection. Here you can also order beer samplers.

Good address, good craft beers of various kinds, quite varied menu with seasonal dishes. The restaurant is located very close to the Bern bear pit and offers a very nice view of the old town.

We were December 8 with my group. On the advice of a friend of mine .. it was full of people but we waited very little to have our table .. excellent food and fair price based on you have dishes ... I must say that we found a lot well...

The beer is always good and the atmosphere is relaxed. Been there a number of times and the service was excellent every time!

great beer, nice location a shame that they are not allowed to install heating on the terrace

Good beer, delicious food (even if the fries were a bit too salty) and very friendly service. As a larger group, we sat in the small hall on the upper floor, where unfortunately there was a little 'gym atmosphere'.

Great experience here. Very friendly and attentive staff, great nears and very good food

Very nice atmosphere, a small brewery. The home-brewed beer is a specialty, but there are also other fine beers. The menu leaves almost nothing to be desired and the food is very fine. The service is very friendly. It is best to reserve as there is always a lot going on.

They didn't take us seriously when they saw us young and non-German speaking. The food was extremely fatty, neither I nor my partner was able to finish our meal. We were ignored by the waiters. We asked for a jug of water, and they brought us a bottle for a fee. However, the site is very pretty, close to the bears. Despite the bad experience, you must come to Altes Tramdepot at least once.

Very disappointed. Ordered a salad and half of the ingredients were missing... simply not ok.

Great for drinking a beer, admiring the city view, and walking to the center.

Food was good, beer absolutely great! Recommendation: make a reservation in the evening.

A beautiful place, good food and great service seem to be the key words of this restaurant.
A full menu suits the good occupancy of this restaurant - it is difficult to find a place on the terrace - and the atmosphere cheers for eating and drinking.
Even the local residents recommend this place and advertise the high quality food.
And finally: the price-performance ratio is okay - typically Swiss somewhat more expensive - but still worth it!

Very good food, perfect service and the beer is simply the best in the world.

1A =)

The best beer we had in Bern. The view and the interactions are perfect. You cant miss the spot if you are in Bern!

Seldom eaten so bad. The best part was the beer. Had pork belly ... tough ... small ... expensive
The beer was really good.

Fantastic beer. Good food and everything in an old tram station

The Altes Tramdepot buildin was originally used to store tram cars, but has since been repurposed into a restaurant, cafe and tourism shop. There is a convenient pay parking lot just north across the street, and public transportation is a good option too. Just next door is the famous Barengraben outdoor exhibit of Bern s eponymous animals. The beloved live bears are a notable tourist attraction, and there is a nice walkway down to the bank of the Aare River. The Altes Tramdepot Brauerei & Restaurant has a two-sided wooden bar immediately inside. The bar has about 20 wooden stools, and in the center behind the bar is their open brewhouse, which consists of two shiny copper brewing vessels on a brick mezzanine. The high gabled wood beam ceiling overhead is a pretty sight, and hanging chalkboards list their 5 house beers on tap. The several short stainless steel fermenters and stacks of horizontal bright tanks are visible downstairs through a windowed wall. The size of the brewery indicates a steady stream of customers. I was impressed at the excellent quality of their beer, which is available by sampler flight or full pour. My favorite was their seasonal Milk Stout, but their year-round core beers are very good too. Past the bar area is the windowed kitchen on the left and a large dining area on the right. Their full service kitchen offers a typical brewpub restaurant menu, and they pride themselves on their Flammkuchen flatbreads. Outside is a scenic patio area with plenty of tables overlooking the River to Bern. The staff is welcoming, prompt, and very helpful. This brewpub has a great atmosphere, good service and tasting beer. I consider it a must-visit locale in Bern!

Shameful! Little choice and menu only in Swiss German, gas plant without any refinement, raw salmon not fresh ... hamburger two slices of bread and a reconstituted and thawed hamburger. The children very disappointed and my wife ... no comment !!!
For the capital it is scandalous especially in this tourist place which is the bear pit.
Too bad for all

Large selection of food with a great view of Bern outside on the terrace. Definitely taste the beer!

Excellent beer.
Always full, so make a reservation!

Wonderful .. the most beautiful days I spent in Switzerland

Great food in a unique setting. The microbrewery is a fantastic addition to the interior. There were three different beers from the microbrewery in addition to others. Well worth wandering a little further out of Bern centre.

New experiences, very tasty and seasonal dishes. Always happy

Because of the good location, view and the beer, we came here regularly with foreign guests on a city tour. The impersonal service didn't stop us. Recently we were sent away as a group of 10 despite reservation, because not all of us ordered food. Spicy: During the reservation there was no question whether we wanted to eat! We were simply given the bill (including those who ate) and we were sent away. We weren't even offered to go to the bar, no excuse, nothing! CONCLUSION: Beer and location: top; Food: overpriced; SETTING AGAINST CUSTOMERS: FLOP; Tip: Support small inns that are still happy about their customers =) !!!

High priced, low quality food. You can wash it down with some decent beers though.

I like this place, great beer and decent food. If only they could keep the hordes of tour groups away. ;)

Nice ambience, relaxed and friendly staff, delicious food ....... come back with pleasure

Very tasty and large portions. Service was friendly and was always on hand . All in all a very fair price.

If you want good beer and home cooking, this is the place for you, don't forget to reserve.

Your location other than man has to feed the birds, because then you will be attacked by the unfriendly hostess voerblal ... .-

Visited multiple times, always had burger and beer. Sometimes place is too crowded. Burger are decent but quite pricey. Locally brewed beer tastes delicious.

Very good and BREATHTAKING view of Bern!
The beer is very good and served cold at the right point. There are also vegetarian options.
