Sometimes the location decides everything. Anyone arriving in Bern by train, taking a lunch break or meeting someone would rather not walk far, but eat well and centrally. That is exactly where we come in. India4U is at Belpstrasse 11, just a few minutes’ walk from Bern station, right in the middle of the city and yet perfectly calm. In this article we show you why our location is so practical, which occasions it suits and how you can reach us the fastest.
Centrally Located, Just Minutes from the Station
Our address at Belpstrasse 11 is central and reachable from Bern station in just a few minutes on foot. That makes us an easy destination, whether you arrive by train, travel by tram or work nearby. You do not need to plan long routes and you find us without any detours.
In a city like Bern this is a real advantage. Anyone short on time does not want to spend it searching. With us you are there quickly, enjoy your meal in peace and are just as quickly on your way again when it is time to move on.
Ideal for the Lunch Break
At lunchtime our location shows its best side. Instead of grabbing something on the side, you treat yourself to a warm, freshly cooked dish without your afternoon suffering for it. A warming curry or a biryani brings colour into the working day. You are still back in good time.
From Monday to Friday our lunch buffet awaits you as well. That way you can try several dishes at once, are served quickly and do not have to deliberate for long. Anyone who prefers to take it along reaches for the lunch box and eats at the office or on the go. You can read more about this in our article on the Indian lunch buffet in Bern.
Perfect Before or After the Train Ride
Being close to the station also makes us practical for travellers. A fine meal before departure that leaves you full and content, or a warm welcome to Bern after your arrival: with us both are only a few steps apart. Anyone waiting for someone or with time between two connections spends it far more pleasantly with us than in the station hall.
Our central location is ideal for a meeting too. People find each other easily, sit comfortably and do not have to give the journey a second thought. That way a short meeting quickly turns into a lovely moment.
What Awaits You With Us
A central location is one thing, good food another. With us the two come together. On the menu you will find the whole range of Indian cuisine:
- Curries in many variations, from mild to fiery, creamy or robust.
- Tandoori specialities fresh from the clay oven, smoky and tender. Read more in our article about tandoori from the clay oven.
- Fragrant biryanis, a whole meal in their own right.
- Fresh Naan, which rises right against the oven wall and comes warm to the table.
- A large vegetarian and vegan selection for every taste.
Our entire range is halal-certified, so you can freely choose whatever you fancy.
Easy to Reach by Public Transport
Because we are central and close to the station, you can reach us comfortably by public transport. We do not have our own parking spaces, but public parking is available in the area. Anyone coming by train, tram or bus has the advantage anyway and is with us quickly, without any search for a parking spot.
This accessibility makes us an easy destination, whether spontaneously at lunchtime or planned in the evening. You arrive, sit down and let yourself be spoiled.
Winding Down After Work
After a long working day the way home can feel far, while the hunger is great. Anyone who works centrally in the city or heads home via the station makes a short, fine stop with us. A warm curry, a fresh Naan and a cooling drink, and the evening off begins in earnest.
Because we are open into the evening, we are still here for you after a later end to the workday. You sit down, leave the day behind you and enjoy in peace. Our central location makes it easy to drop by on the spur of the moment, without any long journey.
For a Meeting or a Business Lunch
Being close to the station makes us ideal for meetings too. Anyone arranging to meet someone finds each other easily, because it hardly gets more central. For a business lunch we offer a warm but not stiff atmosphere, along with dishes that invite conversation. A short reservation in advance keeps the appointment easy to plan.
Our location suits smaller groups as well. Everyone arrives without fuss, nobody has to worry about parking or the journey. The shared evening begins in a relaxed way. That way a meeting in the heart of Bern quickly turns into a lovely moment.
Drinks to Go with Indian Food
The right drink belongs to a good meal. A classic is the Lassi, a creamy yoghurt drink, sweet or salty. The Mango Lassi is especially popular and balances the warmth of the spices pleasantly. Anyone who likes it warm chooses a Chai, the spiced black tea with milk.
Even a simple still water is a good choice, because it lets the aromas work unaltered. That way you quickly find the companion that suits your meal and your day, whether in a short lunch break or on a relaxed evening.
Discover the Variety of Indian Cuisine
Anyone who stops in with us discovers the whole range of Indian cuisine on one plate. For all those who would like to read the menu more easily, here are the best-known dishes in brief. Butter Chicken is a tender chicken in a creamy, slightly sweet tomato sauce, mild and very popular with newcomers. A Korma is a fine, mild curry with a sauce made from yoghurt or nuts. Anyone who likes it robust reaches for a Vindaloo or Madras.
From the tandoor come the smoky specialities such as Tandoori Chicken and Chicken Tikka, along with fresh Naan straight from the oven wall. A Biryani is an aromatic rice dish, layered with meat or vegetables and noble spices. It pairs well with a Dal made from lentils and a cooling Raita. With this little orientation the choice becomes easier right away, whether you are with us quickly at lunchtime or in peace in the evening.
Also for Guests From Other Cities
Anyone coming to Bern by train often looks for a restaurant that is easy to find and centrally located. That is exactly what we offer. Only a few minutes’ walk from the station, we are an easy first destination in the city for travellers. You do not need to know your way around and you find us without any detours.
For a stopover or an evening in Bern this is ideal. You enjoy authentic Indian cuisine without a long search. Afterwards you are quickly on your way again. Whether you are in Bern on business or visiting the city, with us you get a warm, fine meal right in the centre.
From the Lunch Break to the Evening
Our location suits every time of day. At lunchtime we are the quick, fine destination for everyone who works centrally or is out and about. In the evening we become the calm place where you let the day fade away. Because the way to us is short, a visit is worthwhile spontaneously just as much as when planned.
Many of our guests appreciate this flexibility. One person comes in their lunch break for a quick curry, another in the evening for a cosy meal with friends. Both find the same thing with us: a fresh, authentic Indian cuisine in the heart of Bern, only a few steps from the station.
