2 Best Bars in Eastern Switzerland, Switzerland

Even if you don't snag a dinner table at Einstein Gourmet, make reservations for its sultry bar, decked out in leather and dark woods and serving almost 100 whiskeys, plus fanciful cocktails, wines, and draft beer.

The bar at the Porto Sofie hotel serves up fine spirits that lift spirits thanks to its equally fine, sophisticated setting. Sit at the gold and black bar with a signature Porto Sophie, and you'll discover why white wine, Williams pear, quince jelly, lemon, and elderberry are such a refreshing combination. Or relax in a green velvet lounge chair with an Aperol Spritz or Lillet Vive as you soak in the surprisingly modern atmosphere in this otherwise historic half-timbered building. While this bar may be the middle of nowhere, it feels like the center of the universe.
