Café Bern

Café Bern Review

This dark and woody café, as evocative as a Jan Steen 17th-century interior, has been serving the same cheese fondue for decades, and for good reason: it's just about perfect. Go with a group and dunk those bread bits into that wonderfully gooey mess. Besides their famed cheese fondue, they also offer salads and some meat fondues where you can grill meats at the table. Like the Dutch, you, too, may be inspired to establish cheese fondue as your own celebratory meal of choice.

    At Cafe Bern you definately get typical Dutch Food: Cheese. But it is prepared in an un-Dutch fashion: fondue . . . and with lots of garlic. Don't expect the waiters to read your mnd or be nice to you. They are typically Dutch and efficient and eventually get the food to you. Don't get annoyed this is part of the experience. I would not take my first date here, but definately a group of friends.
