Bino's Pizzeria : Hauptstrasse 130, 3855 Brienz

Great pizza 🍕 took the family for a quick bite as we heard the pizza here is great. It did not disappoint. Nice crust, great flavor. The garlic oil was a nice touch. The inside of the restaurant was busy so we decided to walk around the corner and eat at the lake about 3 min away. Takeout is an option. Just in case you don't have Swiss francs they will allow you to pay with card or euro as well.

We visited this pizzeria as a small group (12 persons) – unfortunately, neither the pizza nor the overall experience lived up to expectations. The dough was poorly made: the crust was completely flat, lacking any structure or airiness – quite the opposite of what you'd expect from a good Italian pizza (see photos). Something clearly went wrong in the preparation. Even during the phone reservation, we were asked whether we would be ordering drinks and how long we planned to stay. This gave the impression that the main concern was revenue rather than guest experience – a feeling that was sadly confirmed on-site. Especially odd considering we paid around 320 chf in just 35 minutes and the other tables were empty by the way. Unfortunately disappointing experience.

The food here was absolutely fantastic!! Such fresh ingredients and so flavorful. Although the place was very busy, the owner kept the pace and service was pleasant. I would agree with some of the other reviews about excessive flies while seated inside. My recommendation would be to phone ahead for a reservation for an outdoor table (which are very limited and by reservation only) or order for take away. This is one place you don't want to miss on your enchanted Swiss getaway!
