The Bowling Company AG is an excellent alternative if you feel like trying something different. Another popular restaurant you could check out is Noa, which is a great place to enjoy meals that will remind you of your fun memories in Bern.

You’ll then say farewell to Bern. Drive to the airport, return your car, and take the opportunity to get some last-minute souvenirs before you board your flight home. We wish you a pleasant journey and hope you leave with many wonderful memories of your road trip in Switzerland!
