He was extremely rude and unhelpful and told me to go ask the hotel. I proceeded to go to the lobby to ask where the restaurant was, and my brother stayed behind with my parents. My brother witnessed this employee making fun of me with the other employees, mocking me asking where the restaurant was. This type of behavior is rather juvenile and extremely unacceptable. I highly recommend extra training for your employees, since they cannot treat people with human decency and respect. Is this really the kind of employees that Starbucks employs? Disgusting and abhorrent behavior, absolutely inexcusable. So glad I never spent money at this establishment.

On a day trip to Lucerne, we stopped by Restaurant Schwanen/Cafe De Ville for a coffee and pastry…read more The restaurant is second floor upstairs, the cafe is in the square outside the front door. Beautiful city, beautiful weather. Outside was crowded so we opted for the restaurant. Gorgeous inside, old school European hotel flair. Great views from windows on the second floor! The coffees and pastry (chocolate croissant) were good. Service was a bit hurried, likely because we were having coffee not eating lunch. Still, a nice experience. We'd go back!

Quite a bit of professionals working in nearby buildings were in for dinner too. They had a few international choices (Thai, American, Chinese etc.) However food or service did not live up to expectations. We were asking if some of the dishes on display were vegetarian and a staff member replied perhaps this one and said there are others waiting behind us to order. We really wanted to order too, just needed to know what was vegetarian so we can eat that! I did not know whether to admire the swiss efficiency or complain about the service level at that point. We ended up getting the thai noodle dish and a kebab. My husband did not finish it as it was full of soy sauce (too salty). We ended up coming out and grabbing hot chocolate in train station!

Not famished by any means, we were searching for a rich cup of thick hot chocolate that managed to allude us for our entire 3 days in Switzerland. We first caught an eye of the kitchen staff through a window from an adjoining street--from above and saw tomato sauce being prepared on an outside table. Very neat and clean looking. Even around 1:30 pm the cafe was full with those who appeared to be locals enjoying a variety of plate du jours. We were welcomed by a group of friendly wait staffers and given a bright window table. Once they understood that we were Americans and likely oblivious of how to speak French or German, they sent over a young lady who explained the menu options in superb English. We went for the chicken breast special which included a lovely and fresh garden salad to start, then the most tender and well prepared piece of chicken that could be imagined. Spinach pasta, Brussels sprouts and carrots accented the entrée. We finished with a take on Apple strudel that was creamy, full of vanilla, whipped cream, ice cream and with miniature diced apples. This was a gourmet caliber luncheon all for a stunningly low 28 francs. The Cappuccino was just as satisfying as that elusive cup of hot chocolate would have been. We were only saddened that they were not opened for Tuesday dinner or we would have been first in line for an encore meal that same evening. Five stars!

Yelp Review 2026 #100:…read more We got to this Starbucks steps away from Chapel Bridge a few minutes before they opened and nobody was here in the first 30 minutes. So, it was a relaxed breakfast experience with our choice of where to sit. Of course, I picked a table by the window with a view of the bridge. Trinity Croissant: I tried their Trinity croissants which we don't have in the US. One in chocolate (and hazelnut) and pistachio. I liked the chocolate more. They're like rolled croissants that went viral a few years ago just shaped like a triangle. 3.5/5 Strawberry Matcha Cloud Frappuccino: They made my drink with soy milk but of course the cloud (foam) is dairy and no substitute is available for that. Most Starbucks in other countries don't make their drinks sweet like what's served in the US. I like my drinks less sweet so, this was perfect. 4/5 Bacon and Egg Croissant Sandwich: Flaky croissant with sunny side up egg, bacon strips and cheese. Savory. Messy. 4/5 I can see how unenjoyable it would be if this place was crowded. The thing that got me confused was how the bathroom was already dirty when we were the first 2 customers of the day - do they not clean it at night or first thing in the morning? Closer to 8am, they rolled the blinds halfway down. Good thing I already got my pictures and was almost done with my food.

Once you pick up your jaw off the floor and get over the exorbitant prices of everything in Switzerland, yes even Starbucks, you can take a look around and appreciate the beautiful scenery of this waterfront Starbucks situated right in front of the historic Chapel Bridge, strewn with colorful flowers (depending on the season). Two coffees and two pastries ended up costing us the equivalent $22 USD, but it was nice to find a familiar cup of coffee abroad, just be prepared to pay an arm and a leg.
