Kääs Beizli at Barfüsserplatz

Raclette, Fondue, Mulled Wine & more

Right in the heart of Basel, on Barfüsserplatz, our cosy Kääs Beizli awaits you. In our lovingly decorated, heated chalet-style restaurant, Rita and Jean-Luc will welcome you with warmth and a smile. The inviting atmosphere and the aroma of raclette and fondue from Basler Wirt’s Huus is the perfect place to enjoy cold winter days.

Here you can enjoy raclette in a typical chalet atmosphere as a single portion or, if you are very hungry, à discrétion. As a starter we can recommend our hearty Beizli-Plättli. Fancy a fondue? You’ll find that here too – traditional and cosy. Thanks to its central location on Barfüsserplatz, our Kääs Beizli is the perfect place to warm up after a stroll through the city, during a visit to the Basel Autumn Fair or the Christmas market. Just thirsty? Our mulled wine hut with its bar tables is the perfect place for a Barfi aperitif and the ideal after-work meeting place.
