We went to twinys looking for quick bite to eat under $20 and it was a hard search unfortunately (we were tired of quick meals at coop and migros). And twinys really came to our rescue. It's a food stand so everything there is to go and there is no where to sit. The staff was very friendly, one of my friends had a food allergy and they had no issues whatsoever adjusting his sandwich accordingly. I got the chicken sandwich, their staple sandwich and I was a big fan. Would recommend getting the twiny sauce and the garlic sauce as well. Was quite a flavorful sandwich and the staff even added extra pickles after I joked it. The bread is nice and crispy and the chicken came out hot. My friends loved their salami sandwich. I would note that the sandwiches can be a bit messy, we had a few bread crumbs and pieces of lettuce fall out while eating and the sauce does start to drip. We ended up coming back for more sandwiches later in our trip as our go to quick eat spot that is inexpensive. If you are looking for a bite without spending a fortune in Lucerne would recommend a visit!

It's a takeout window. Easy to order and food was ready quickly. I ordered the large chicken schnitzel with garlic sauce and a side of pommes for 20 CHF. Served on a baguette, the sandwich had multiple cutlets of schnitzel throughout. They go heavy on the sauce and Im here for it! The sandwich was filling but a little messy. The fries were good, nothing remarkable, but good old heated up precut frozen fries. We took our food down to the water and ate on a bench. It was great. In fact, we were so full from our sandwiches we decided to skip our sit down dinner a couple hours later.

The menu states "fries or salad, includes coleslaw" but there is no coleslaw. It's more fries, salad, OR coleslaw". My other friend got the Raclette burger and he devoured it. The burgers are a VERY good size. I was only able to eat half of it. Again, make sure you make reservations.

Also, in summer they have nice outside seating area. They have a wide selection of sandwiches, I tried most and all have been really delicious, I like their hot sandwiches: my faves are the Caprese one and the Schnitzel one. Even though the sandwiches are pre-prepared, all of them are really fresh and I also like the fact that they offer several types of bread. In addition of the sandwiches they also offer salads, quiches and sweets but to me one of the main attractions are the hot dishes. I simply love their baked potatoes with toppings. The smoked salmon baked potato is so hart-warming that it makes my worries melt away, which is exactly what you need if you are having a rough day in the office! Great spot for a weekday lunch, will go again!

Juice bars are on the rise, and I have found a number of very good ones in Lucerne and Zurich so far. But Joe has very quickly become my top spot. All the drinks and juices I've had here, I don't think I've had better anywhere else. And the prices tend to be noticeably lower, too. Starbucks can keep it's overpriced, watery thing they call an Iced Latte from now on, they've got nothing on Joe. And his coffee shake is probably the pinnacle of cold, milky coffee drinks, with some coffee beans blendered in to top it off. A dream! Apart from juices, smoothies, shots and shakes, Joe also offers great coffee, tasty and freshly prepared sandwiches, and more nourishing drinks with muesli that I imagine would work very well as a breakfast to go. The location is a bit hidden, on the upper floor of the train station, and I hope that word of mouth will be able to compensate the reduced visibility of being tucked away up there, next to the railway ticket office. The decor is very nice and elegant, though. I like their image and design a lot. It's a very nice place to have a little break, and you have access to the balcony looking down on the railway platforms, if you fancy. All the staff I encountered so far were very friendly, glad to elaborate on the menu, and seemed genuinely motivated about working there. Discovering Joe & the Juice was a very pleasant surprise, and I really can't think of anything to criticise. Two out of the four times I've visited so far, other customers made it a point to pass by the counter before they left, to tell staff how good it was. This is not at all a common thing in Switzerland, but that's how good Joe is. I recommend it wholeheartedly, and hope that the franchise will expand further and get to mix up the Swiss juice bar market a bit.

We were able to get a nice lasagna for a reasonable price. We liked it so much that we ended up walking back to get gelato for dessert later. The son kept apologizing to me because he didn't speak English but there was no need to apologize for that! I was able to use Google Translate to tell him in Italian that we enjoyed their food very much. It was great seeing their faces light up when they heard that. I'm really glad I got to meet these two and enjoy their food on this journey.

The wings were incredible, mostly because of the unique sweet and spicy sauce. The baked fries were also tasty. The burgers, not so much.

As for the drinks, the sangria was good but very sweet, so one small glass is all I could handle. The others in my group ordered a hugo and aperol spritz. Both were decent, especially given the prices, but you could tell the prosecco was flat from being open awhile. Overall we would eat here again.
