Tuchlaube in Aarau

The seating is so narrow that our elbows touched each other. It was so loud that you almost had to scream at each other. The homemade iced tea was lousy. The waitress was confused and the ketchup we ordered never arrived at the table. We won't be coming back.

Fine food, I really like the food in the Tuchlaube, for example the various tarte flambées. Central and cozy location in Aarau’s old town. The restaurant is often very busy, reservations are recommended.

In a beautiful city like Aarau you cannot miss a place where you feel at home....

It's always great to just have a coffee or espresso here. Nice atmosphere and committed employees. Keep it up.

Nice spot to sit down and chat and have a drink in the summer, very popular among the locals, we can only recommend it. The ambience is also super relaxed.

Lovely location with great cocktails. Robin looked after us super well

Unfortunately the opening times on the homepage are not correct. This is very annoying 😡

Sunday brunch was small but nice...

A nice experience to see a nice play, it's small and the heat builds up in the waiting room, but it's worth being there and supporting the arts.

Always worth a visit. The Serrano ham is great. Large selection of drinks. The service was obviously not relaxed on my last visit, but still friendly. I would be happy to come back and recommend it to others.

It's pretty loud at lunchtime. Be sure to make a reservation if you don't want to sit in the farthest corner. But the service there is also attentive and friendly. The quality and appearance of the plates is excellent.

A long time ago in my youth the meeting was absolutely. Visited again after a long absence

Far too overpriced for what is offered, map not understandable enough. Food OK.

Was at the aperitif, felt very comfortable.

Super great service Cool location.

A really nice place to enjoy your coffee or drink in an amazing traditional building! Big plus is that the waiter is speaking English and is really helpful! I wouldn't recommend the cheesecake thou.

Chocolate cake, coffee, tarte flambée, ... good company, newspapers, ...

Fine mocktails and tarte flambée, friendly service and fair prices

An idyllic cafe in the middle of the old town of Aarau. When the weather is nice you can also sit outside here. The interior is very friendly and chill. The cafe seems to be very popular with the locals. It was hard to find a free spot on a Wednesday morning. Unfortunately I can't judge the food. I only had a croissant. However, this wasn't particularly tasty. I liked the coffee even more. This was very excellent.

Very iconic bar in Aarau. If you love music you should come on Wednesdays. Prices are cheap and the service is very nice. The food (flambée or chicken shawarma) is super good. I can only recommend this to everyone. Outside in summer it is a highlight!

At first we were greeted unfriendly. When we got hold of a free table, the server's daughter said, "Actually, I just wanted to take a break"... so much for that. The food we ordered came after 5-10 minutes, the tarte flambée could have been IMPOSSIBLE fresh. Also a disappointment was the overpriced salad, a small bowl with 2-3 carrots on it and very little dressing. It's a shame - I'm definitely not coming back.

One of the best. It's a "In"-place!

I really like the atmosphere and the menu. The staff in the restaurant is very nice. Only “the boss” behind the bar is pretty unsympathetic. I paid her directly with the card, she didn't ask me if I wanted the receipt so I claimed it after she had already left. She made it very clear to me that I was annoying her.

Delicious Flamkuchen and relaxed atmosphere and service. Terrace always full when the weather is nice, with limited places. Reservations recommended. Normal prices by Swiss standards, but by other European standards you will be shocked when you pay.

I have been visiting the Tuchlaube regularly for years, be it for a coffee in the afternoon or for lunch or dinner. And every time everything is just perfect: the food is always good, everyone gets it at the same time and the staff is very attentive. I also appreciate that Tuchlaube regularly has a new drinks and food menu - so you can always try something new.

The chocolate cake is great. Unfortunately it's usually sold out towards the evening.

Very tasty and inexpensive. The three of us ordered a tapas platter and it was very tasty and filling.

Nothing special. But hallo: 3 dl. water from tap is Fr 4....Not ok!

Very nice staff, we were served by Luc, a very competent bartender, generally a very nice experience, definitely recommended!

There is fine food e.g. an aperitif platter or delicious croissants and minced meat. The restaurant was very full so service took a little longer. Overall, however, we were extremely satisfied. It is a happy place and we would love to come again.

Pleasant atmosphere with birds chirping in the toilet. However, the service left a lot to be desired. My 22 year old college colleague without a beard was forced to show his ID. He just wanted to relax and drink a rum punch. The Tuchlauben own brand beer tasted 1 to 1 like Feldschlösschen. I wouldn't be surprised if the bottles just get spilled behind the counter. When paying, the other colleague paid with cash. The waitress said: I believe you, but then counted the money anyway. To make matters worse, the urinal was also broken. There is a gap in the plastic at the bottom. Dangerous. Someone could still piss in it. The pazer tape was yellow black. But the pedestrian sign was missing.

Wait 20 minutes for a water and two glasses of wine. Then another 10 minutes for the bill.

Bar good atmosphere. Visited in the afternoon. Impeccable for a coffee or a chat with friends.

Nice people, good coffee, inside or on terrace, watching people in heart of town. And you'll feel very welcome!

We were there on Sunday March 5th, 2023 around 4:00 p.m. The cafe was full to capacity! (That speaks for itself!) The service was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the tapas aperitif platter (4 people) which was very balanced and of very good quality. We immediately ordered another one (we were very hungry;) All in all it was a very pleasant stay. We'd love to come back!

Drinks were ok. Ambience rather less.

I ordered a Ramen and I got this, some kind of paste with peanut sauce and fried tofu… nothing to do with ramen. I barely could eat it.

Nice spot to eat something good, have a coffee or drinks with some friends.

Very friendly staff and well maintained

By far the worst team. The whole atmosphere is totally disturbed because you can really feel stress behind the bar. The lovely service really made me feel sorry for working in such a team.

The best cappuccino in aarau. Polite service. Brunch and cocktail also gut. I recommend it.

Service very friendly, will go again.

We've been enjoying coming here almost every Sunday for some time now to drink coffee and eat cake. We really like the atmosphere. I also always look forward to the chocolate cup that is filled with coffee cream and has been served with coffee cream for some time now :) A great solution to save plastic and is a great coffee accompaniment. The only negative point is that the lighting inside above some tables is too strong and bright. You could use slightly more pleasant light bulbs.

Restaurant, bar in the old town of Aarau. Nice service 😎

THE meeting place in the old town for years, indoors and outdoors.

Nice café in the old town of Aarau

Condition was friendly and arrived quickly Price performance was good

very cool location. busy on a Friday evening. enjoy your meal friendly service

The food, I had the rice noodle salad with meat balls, was delicious. The only thing that isn't great is that you have to wait a really long time. And if you then order a second drink and it doesn't come and the waitress persistently avoids calling, that doesn't make the experience a highlight.

The location of the restaurant is ideal, in the middle of the old town. I was there with about 10 people and the service was very good, the service was very nice and quick. Wishes were always implemented (if possible). The reservation went well. The tarte flambées are very tasty, unfortunately a bit too small (for me). However, there is a simple solution -> order another one! On my next visit to Aarau I will definitely stop by again to eat a tarte flambée.

Friendly service. Good coffee 👍

Bland drinks and overpriced menu.

Friendly, good food, nice ambiente!

I love this cafe, very good atmosphere, nice staff and very good coffee. They have also very delicious food...keep like that well done. Nice terrace for summer

Always very tasty lunch menus, good soups, salads and tarte flambées. Super nice staff. We always feel very welcome. The atmosphere is very pleasant at any time of the day.

The Tuchlaube is very convenient for me, especially for breakfast. The restaurant is often very well attended and a reservation is certainly advantageous. The selection and quality of the food is good. Chilly atmosphere inside the restaurant.

Still an insider tip like it was 40 years ago

Food and drinks are always first class and the staff are courteous and friendly. The place to be in Aarau!

Very quick service Delicious coffee Was very comfortable

The best tarte flambée in Aarau. Very popular restaurant, therefore often very busy, but worth the wait.

Great place and good coffee, highly recommended.

Very personable, fun and always friendly, very tasty dishes... I'd love to come back!!!!

Very friendly service, good wines, fine local beer and the absolute best tarte flambée in town!! 🤩

Superb. Yum good. Very good service. Good prices. Good vibe and decor

Friendly service, good selection on the menu

Very attentive + friendly employees. Small but nice menu. Everyone will find something here.

The ingredients are declared transparently. All 4 soups are gluten free 👍🏼 Was delicious! Gladly again!

Great place. Food is a bit on the expensive side but makes up for it in taste.

There was space at the bar, we enjoyed beer and conversation for a few hours, the atmosphere is very relaxed. Homemade beer gives you a hangover the next day, so it's better not to take on too much.

Friendly and attentive staff. Delicious aperitif and great food. I'd love to come back when I'm in Aarau again!

Fast food place vibe and very very tight seating. Even the staff can't get to all the tables and guests even have to get up and make room. Not exactly recommended in times of Covid. Coffee and cake excellent.

hip restaurant in the middle of Aarau. good selection of food and drink

Nice service, delicious food, nice location, ... TipTop

No warm milk after 10 o'clock in the evening😔

Really nice place but the waitress was not that friendly. The prices are extremely high and dishes small!

A place for extremely open conversations.

Coffee is still as good as it used to be.

Always trendy and current! Eat, drink or just be there! You can meet interesting people here, sit outside and enjoy! The food is good and the drinks too! The service is attentive and friendly! It's always a pleasure to come back here when I'm in Aarau again!

Attentive, friendly service. Enjoyable food & drink.

Very nice in the middle of the old town, great ambience and very quick and friendly service.

Very friendly staff who greet you warmly even if you can't wear a mask. I think it's great that employees who can't wear a mask can also work for you. No longer a given these days. I would definitely like to come back.

In the Tuchlaube you are always served very well. There are very good drinks. 🍹🍷Breakfast is also recommended. 🥐

Instead of serving, you sit comfortably outside, smoke a cigarette and are ignored. You aren't even asked if you want something to drink.

Best cappuccino in town! Summits definitely have room for improvement.

Service was super good. Drinks ok. Food too expensive for what you get. So it's great to go for a drink.

Sehr freundliche und schnellele Bedienung.

Abgesehen davon, dass Kaffee, Tee und was weiss ich nicht alles lecker und eher grösserem Geschirr gereicht werden (deshalb auch nicht billig), geniesst man einen guten Überblick die Metzgergasse rauf. Bei schönem Wetter draussen voll und beliebt, aber auch an Regentagen/Kälte sitzt man draussen selten alleine🙂

Übersichtliche Karte - Topleute im Service One of the best place in Aarau

musste keine Kontaktdaten angeben, ev. ging ich vergessen... 😊 wie immer netter Service 👍 Schade ist draussen die Sitzbank weg

Super nett und sehr flexible Bedienung. Sehr gute Preis Leistung

Danke für die tolle Zeit. Mit frischem Flammkuchen, Hugöli und Espresso.

Ein tolles Lokal, beliebter Treffpunkt unter Jugendlichen und immer viel los. Die Auswahl der Getränke ist gut und der Flammkuchen ein Highlight. Der Service ist grundsätzlich in Ordnung, aber es gibt einen sehr unfreundlichen Kellner, den wir kennenlernen durften.

Super Treffpunkt in Aarau. Super Bedienung, gutes Essen und genialer Flammkuchen!

Good ambient, cool location, good drinks & Food

Der Spezialist für Flammkuchen in Aarau. Ist immer gemütlich hier und das Personal ist immer sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist fair und die Atmosphäre in Mitten der Altstadt ist sowieso cool.

Guter, freundlicher Service. Der Haustee (Ingwer, Pfefferminze und Chili) ist sehr lecker:)

Guter Cafe, Distanz von Tisch zu Tisch ist Tip Top.

Toller Treffpunkt in Aarau. Gemütliche Atmosphäre, toll auch draussen bei schönem Wetter. Die Flammkuchen für den kleinen Hunger sind sehr lecker! Das Personal ist aufgestellt und freundlich. Immer gerne wieder! 👍🏼😊

Amüsant und sozial. Personal ist sehr freundlich

Gut und sehr freundliche Bedienung aber alles etwas beengt
