Theatre catering

At Theater Basel, we have three stages for opera, drama and ballet and various other venues. Gastronomy also plays a role around our theatre programme. Under the imposing suspended roof of the 1975 theatre building, there are various bars that always open one hour before the performance begins. Our theatre café is open all day. In the middle of the foyer, art meets cooking, theatre meets teatime and stage meets plate.

In the kitchen, we prepare what we and our guests love: Regional and seasonal produce, carefully selected. You can find out where we source our ingredients under 'totally local'. But of course you can also talk to us at any time - about our ingredients and our theatre programme.

See you soon, we look forward to seeing you!

Theatre plate

If you book in advance, a seasonal hors d'oeuvre with soup and a drink awaits you before the performance. Bookable now for performances from 1 October 2024.

Der neue Theaterteller passend zur Jahreszeit Frühling

Whether it's a theatre plate before the performance, drinks and snacks during the interval or a nightcap after the final applause - there are various ways for theatre-goers to round off their theatre experience with culinary delights.

Info

When the weather is fine, our theatre café is also part of the summer foyer down by the Serra sculpture and offers lunch with regional, seasonal cuisine, homemade cakes and snacks, as well as delicacies from Basel confectioners.
