What makes Comeback Bar special
The bar has been around for many years and is a constant in Bern: not a club, but a place for an aperitif, a beer after work or a nightcap within historic walls. Guests praise the friendly, family-like atmosphere and the host; women coming alone also feel at home here. At weekends, DJs play a varied programme.
Good to know
It is busiest at weekends and around Pride. Tables can be reserved via the website; during the summer break the bar may be closed for a few weeks.
