This recently renovated historic establishment is a friendly place to enjoy tasty seasonal dishes and classics.
Café des Arcades, near the cathedral, has been a landmark in the Quartier du Bourg for over 160 years. In a friendly, authentic atmosphere, this establishment blends old-world charm with modern architecture. Its carefully prepared, high-quality cuisine makes it a popular place to linger.
Its unique character and location attract an eclectic clientele: lawyers, artists, journalists, politicians, students, retirees and tourists all meet here, giving the Café des Arcades its soul and atmosphere, typical of the cafés that make Fribourg so rich.
Brunch is served on Saturdays and Sundays between 11 a.m. and 2.30 p.m.
The Pavillon du Bletz, located on the 2nd floor, is an outbuilding of the Café and can be opened by reservation.
