Oase in Würenlingen

Really fantastic food for a canteen! There are three varied menus to choose from every day. Otherwise there is a cold and warm buffet. The prices are also completely reasonable. I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

I think one of the best company canteens around. Single dishes starting from 12 francs. Good and accessible even to those who are not PSI employees. Perhaps they could improve the offer for vegans/vegetarians in terms of variety.

Canteen food with canteen ambience. Very loud. No soundproofing measures visible. But definitely one of the better ones.

Quick and efficient service and good simple food

There are three different menus, one of which is vegetarian. Or you can put something together from the great buffet - particularly recommended if you follow a gluten-free diet, for example. In summer you can also enjoy your meal in the sun on the terrace. The Oasis staff ensure that everything is always tidy and are very friendly.

Canteen stop. There's nothing bad to say. Food is ok. Canteen stop.

A variety of options available here. The buffet is indeed the best here.

Extremely friendly service, good selection of food at a very reasonable price.

Insufficient vegan options, which is unacceptable as it is the only option for PSI employees to eat lunch.

Good food, good atmosphere, good service

Soups not salty enough. Otherwise really good! I also wish people would slow down their eating to enjoy the delicious Swiss fare.

Soups are always too salty, and little choice of deserts. Otherwise pretty, pretty, pretty good.

The food was okay, but the discrimination by certificate is not possible at all! It's a shame that you support this.

A daily regular for over 10 years and I have to say I still look forward to eating every day! You can only get that from mom.😋 Thanks also to the super nice staff.

Food for only 10.7 francs including entree and side dish.

One of the best things about PSI. Good food and excellent prices for Swiss standards.

Award-winning staff restaurant of the Paul Scherrer Institute that is open to the public. Always great selection.

One of the few canteens where it always tastes good. Super fast service, no long wait. Simply delicious 😋 😋 😋

Great place to have a lunch. Been here many times.

Clean spacious and affordable eating. If you are doing a tour of one of the nearby institutes or powerplants, highly recommend coming here for lunch.

Wide variety and delicious food, excellent in-house atmosphere along with outside seating arrangements.

Very good lunch dishes, fresh and tasty, friendly staff, good and fair prices

Large, bright staff restaurant with a great selection of menus.

Great service, but a bit expensive

Convenient and that's about it. The food is always way too salty and overcooked. Yes, it is cheap, but still way too much for the quality that you get. DO NOT GO HERE

Very good and fine chefs could be friendlier.

Very tasty food at top prices. I always enjoy being here.

Very tasty food at good prices. You can pay in francs or euros. It is a pleasant atmosphere with many scientists and researchers. The outdoor area and the view are also very nice

Bei unserem Besuch im PSI nahmen wir Senioren/innen unseren Lunch in der Oase ein. Wieder einmal das Gefühl, ein Personalrestaurant live zu erleben hat wirklich Spass gemacht. Die Qualität meines Menus, Suppe, Salat, Braten mit Kartoffelstock und etwas Gemüse hat perfekt gepasst. Auch das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis ist meines Erachtens absolut in Ordnung. Dies zeigte auch die Frequenz in diesem Betrieb, kaum ein Stuhl war leer.

PSI Institute cafeteria. Taste is top level among research institutes around the world

Ate very well. Friendly service.

Ok food, not cheap, low variety.

Great large kitchen. Great price-performance ratio

Very good selection, always friendly staff and a great price/performance ratio. The food always tastes very good and fresh.

Price and performance absolutely top!

The food wasn't worth the price.

Top cuisine and drinks, friendly service. Thumbs up.

A real oasis, between the forest and the power plant.

Cheapest place to eat good food with good ambiance.

Constantly great food quality and selection.

Always very good. Food and service

PSI staff restaurant. Good and healthy food at reasonable prices.

Good, cheap, nutritious and very varied as a cafeteria :D

It belongs to the category that swiss people call "Mensa". I give it 5 starts however, because I've been there 4-5 times and every single time I'm positively surprised by their offering. They'd have some more special dishes, which you typically don't find in mensas. Taste is also good, price also fair.

Really testy food with huge variety..

Very good food and attentive service

Super tasty and super friendly staff

This is the cafeteria for the Paul Scherrer Institute. For a laboratory cafeteria, it's great!

Expensive, but good for a workplace canteen. I removed one star because you have to pay cash and there is no ATM close by (the closest is more than 30 minutes walk away).

Not bad for cafeteria food. A bit pricey

This is the PSI Cantine. However it is also open to the public, offering very good choices for reasonable prices.

Excellent standard for a staff restaurant. In addition to lunch and evening meals, it always offers creative and sometimes entertaining specials

Is one of the cantines of PSI.it's a nice place for dinner, having a big terrace

Great food, nice people, lame coffee

Decent dining option near PSI. Avoid time out, go here

mensa for psi employees, guests pay a bit extra. Several menus to choose from at lunch. food not so bad for a mensa, neither too cheap for a mensa.

Quality restaurant with good choices available daily. The prices are slightly high but that is typical of Switzerland, especially considering there are hardly other options around. The 3 daily meals offer good variety and when nothing suits, the buffet and salad selection is there too. the location is quite good with option to eat outside and play ping pong afterwards.

Food is quite cheap, but if you bring your own, there is only 1 microwave

This place is a canteen of quality in a very nice building. The employees were quite friendly and some of them speak english. I recommend this place when working at PSI but the opening hours have to be check especially during the weekend.

They provide good meals for a reasonable price. Recommendable to eat here while there.

Very good restaurant, 3 menus, only single price for students and workers

Bit pricey for lunch but good food

3 varied menus every day including a veggie. There is also a salad buffet, front kitchen and always a grill menu and everything at a great price

This is the personnel mensa of the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), a large research centre employing thousands. However, it is open access - you may eat here even if you have nothing to do with PSI, paying the same price. They offer several fixed menus as self-service (tray and pay) but also a "business lunch" menu - with table service. The quality of the food has nothing to envy to that of most restaurants in the region, the prices however are much lower (around 10 to 25 CHF). Only snag - it is closed in weekends and after 8 pm. In summer, two ample terraces looking on the Aare river make the place particularly pleasant. If you happen to be in the region, it is a good option for a lunch or early dinner. Weekly and daily menus available on the webpage.

Good environment and good food.
