Description
Basel's oldest cafe can be found on the Marktplatz. The wonderful location with a view of the city hall, along with the beautiful interior, which harks back to an earlier, more stylish epoch, ensure that a visit here is an event.
This is where you'll meet upper class ladies of a certain age, who meet to gossip over tea and cakes. The patisserie in the ground floor ensures that the pleasures continue. Chocolate is also made here, but as a work of art rather than a foodstuff.
