Some tips for having a meal, a coffe, or a walk, all within walking distance: 

​

Kaffee Frühling - very close to the venue, always crowded

Kaffee Finkmüller (Klybeckstrasse) - more space, lots of plants

Da Graziella - Italian style coffee place

Confiserie Beschle (Clarastrasse) - sweets and bakery 

Choi Asia Garden - friendly Asian fusion

Lu - Mezze and oriental specialities

Acento Argentino (Kaserne) - Empanadas, Empanadas, Empanadas

Vito - our favorite pizza in town, very small place, better for takeaway

Parterre - European kitchen​

 

There are many other restaurants and take aways in the area, but these are my favourites.​If you visit Basel for the first time, I suggest to stroll along the Rhine and take the ferry in front of the big cathedral (Munster).​
