Hüsi Bierhaus is a beer hall and pub at Postgasse 3 in the Old Town of Interlaken, in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland. The venue is built around beer: the long tables, wood-heavy interior and beer garden give it the feel of a traditional Swiss and Bavarian-style Bierhaus rather than a cocktail bar. The crowd is a blend of locals, Swiss weekend visitors and international travellers who have come for the mountain activities around Interlaken, and groups often share tables. The atmosphere is convivial and informal, with no dress code beyond casual clothing, and the age range runs from twenty-somethings to older regulars. The venue is known for hosting live music, though the schedule varies, so visitors who want a gig rather than background music should phone +41 33 823 23 32 or check current listings. At other times the soundtrack is a pub playlist at a level that still allows conversation. The drinks programme focuses on draught beer, with a range of lagers and specialty beers, supported by wine, spirits and a selection of simple mixed drinks. The kitchen serves regional food suited to sharing and to soaking up beer, and the beer garden is the preferred spot in summer. Opening hours follow a pattern that is later and longer at weekends: Monday, Wednesday and Thursday run from 3 PM to 11:30 PM, Friday from 3 PM to 12:30 AM, Saturday from 12:30 PM to 12:30 AM and Sunday from 12:30 PM to 11:30 PM. The bierhaus is closed on Tuesday. These hours should be checked before visiting because they can change by season. No cover charge is normally listed for ordinary evenings, though special events may differ. Reservations are mostly useful for groups and on Friday and Saturday evenings, when the hall fills. Bottle service is not part of the concept, and the mid-range price level means a beer costs around CHF 6 to 9. The Old Town location makes it an easy stop between dinner and the Höheweg promenade.
