Restaurant de la Poste

Great relaxed atmosphere sitting out on the wide terrace overlooking the market square though you can sit inside in the very traditional french decor dining room. The Food is Traditional French with no pretensions. The cost of the food was a fraction of that in...Basel, but no worse and frankly better in quality. The wine was a 1/4 of the price in Basel and we had a very good bottle of Cote du Rhone Village Cairanne at well under €20 which would buy you a middling glass of wine in Basel. I had superb Alsace Garlic Snails followed by a very succulent Beef Fillet in cream pepper sauce which was cooked to perfection.

I ate there twice, and both times the other patrons appeared to be either working stiffs or pensioners; some eating, some nursing beers. The furnishings and ambience were zilch.

we stumbled over this place on our walk from basel, where we remain for business. de la post is a local pub so that the decor is very rustic and it is full of natives, so visitors seem made out of place but the waitress...we feel welcome even though we don't speak French and eating was excellent. I had the kalbs with mushrooms and the 6 of us from Australia, Great Britain, Hungarian and Australian who travel a lot for the work all agreed that they will make the best 4-cheese pizza ever. thank you for making an unforgettable evening. shhhh, it is a hidden shade.

Since the place was taken over, situation has slightly improved since sun has started to be often in the bar. Restaurant will still have to improve in order to attract new crowd in this well located place. A total refurbishment will do as well. Bring...a new soul to this place

this beautiful place was recently taken over. no changes and improvements were made. an unpleasant service leads to a very cloudy and popular place being turned into nothing. what a shame. excellent location, but the soul of the place is gone
