Having a Swiss mother, we holiday in this beautiful country every other year, and make the town of Interlaken our base.
The restuarant Zum Baeren is one of our favourites, the food is always of good quality and the staff very hospitable and welcoming - not always easy when on our last holiday we presented them regularly with the requirement to seat 9 of us and a 2 year old! - although we did make sure we booked with them first.
Dishes are traditionally Swiss The Rosti, calves liver, fondues, steaks and pork dishes are particulalrly noteworthy, their salads too are also worthy of a mention.
Looking forward very much to this summer to renew our acquaintance with the 'Baeren'. ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Zum Bären, Interlaken
Set within a richly folkloric setting whose origins go back to 1674, this is a worthwhile excursion for clients who want to perhaps escape the restrictions of their in-house dining plan for a view of old-fashioned alpine folklore. Expect lots of weathered and congenially battered paneling, dented wooden tables, chairs that have borne the weight of thousands of previous diners, and a standardized, mostly Swiss menu that's redolent with rösti, schnitzels of both pork and veal, grilled filet of beef with peppercorn or béarnaise sauce, and minced veal in cream sauce, Zurich style. It all goes well with beer that's served here in foaming mugfuls. Prerecorded "evergreen music" usually accompanies your meal.
