A nice urban vibe while still being authentically Locarnese. Cozy, welcoming, very good food, fair prices (for local standards). At night there are often concerts and DJ sets with a relatively sophisticated taste.

Particular restaurant, former bank, with different environments, obtained from the chest, with armored door, evenings with various themed dinners from various nations

Original and charming place, shame not made the most of it. The service was a bit confusing, with a lack of attention and consideration for the customer's needs. Unfortunately, the allergen menu is difficult to interpret due to the colors being too similar and unclear, and furthermore, it contains incorrect information (you need to ask for confirmation for each dish chosen). This situation is especially serious for celiacs, as they could have serious consequences due to lack of knowledge. The gesture of offering a dish "contaminated by gluten" was appreciated, but this does not solve the problem, as demonstrated by the subsequent illness of one person. Overall, the experience was positive, and the venue has great potential.

For now it's the top in Locarno.... We look forward to more places like this Both aperitif and lunch.

As soon as we entered we had to have the dirty tables cleaned as if they couldn't be seen. In the middle of winter it was freezing cold even inside, none of the staff bothered to close it, they got up 3 times to close it. Took 4 aperitifs received a tray for ants. Difficult to get the staff's attention to that just to pay. NEVER AGAIN'

Poor cleaning of the tables, Little attention towards customers. Extremely cold place, no one bothers to close the door even in the middle of winter. Almost invisible trays in addition to aperitifs.

Really nice place with old safes hanging from the ceiling. Quite a large place with the possibility of outdoor tables overlooking Locarno's Piazza Grande from under the portico. Service quite fast, discreet and kind. The food is really good and both the traditional Cllub Sandwich with chicken and the Hamburger deserve a special mention. If you are near Piazza Grande, it is certainly one of the best if not the best solution for lunch. Absolutely recommended.

"Aesthetically appealing and with a great selection of whiskeys and cocktails. The aperitifs are really tasty, and the fact that they offered a quality vegan option on request is a big plus. Well worth a visit!

A great restaurant. We were here by chance during Moon and Stars. Our waitress (from Tuscany) was very friendly and an extremely cheerful person. It is very rare to find such employees in the catering industry. We were able to enjoy the evening to the fullest. Oh yes, the food is also very good. Great burgers and sandwiches, freshly prepared. We'd love to come back. See you next time.

We wanted to have a leisurely aperitif, but we waited a long time to ask about the drink menu & when no one came after a total of 20 minutes, we forgot about staying there! It should be mentioned that there were not many people there and one could accept waiting so long and not being noticed. So it's a shame and bad, inattentive service!!! We don't recommend it!

strong points tasted.. but we didn't see them, while the other consumers tasted one or more.. we were really disappointed by the service.. the Germans next to us (there were 5) only took a 33 cl bottle of water. THEY BROUGHT HIM THE APERITIF, AND WE, WHO LITERALLY GOT DOUBLE IN TWO, DIDN'T EVEN SEE THE SHADOW OF IT.

What a stylish restaurant! Formerly a bank and now a bar. Turn old into new! The lockers hang from the ceiling, there is gold on the walls and there is a sofa and chairs in the safe. The menu is quite large for a bar. Ranges from fries, tortillas, cheese and meat variations, hummus, soup, salad, club sandwich, nuggets, etc. With every drink there is a bowl of crunchy and seasoned tortillias as an aperitif. Yummy!! The service is very friendly and accommodating, but not overly committed. This means that if you want to order a second round, you have to make an effort as a guest. Large umbrellas (electric) provide enough shade outside or protect against downpours. The toilets are clean and interestingly decorated. A Töggelika box invites you to linger in the back of the bar. And the menu feels like it weighs a ton 😂 Let yourself be surprised. Certainly also a remnant from banking days. Clearly one of the nicer restaurants on the Piazza Grande. In my opinion, many others are getting old.

Amazing idea !!!! When a bank became a bar … From outside you already feel a nice place but the best part is inside . I’ll not completely reveal what there is inside, just consider we talk about an old bank 🏦. Take an aperitivo and enjoy the staff kindness Super place !!

Nice concept. Original paper, light and tasty. Too bad the service isn't online yet. Everyone focused on the product but little on the guest. I hope to align the service with the rest and to give a good 5 next time. Locarno lacked such an original venue but without the attention and professionalism, the castle falls.

We randomly came across this bar. We, who wanted a restaurant that stood out from the crowd, were served. An original decor, a smiling and friendly service (even bringing the chef into the dining room so that she can explain to us how her dishes are assembled). Very good products/presentation. To discover 👍

Hipster bar in the middle of Locarno. It was very quiet when I was there, but it was only Tuesday night. I imagine this is the place to be in the summer months. Friendly barman, offered me some snacks
