About Us
Together. Genuine. Creative. Special.
Who We Are
Two Hosts with Heart.
What began as a shared idea after our trip to Japan quickly turned into a plan: to create a place where culinary arts, diversity, and friendship converge. Friends is our latest project on the vibrant Mühleplatz in Thun. People already know us from Del Padre and Mühlibar – inspired by our love for good food and special encounters.

For us, it’s not just about food, but experiences. We combine flavors from around the world, tell stories on the plate, and invite our guests to discover new things – together, openly, and with joy in indulgence.
A Place That Connects
At Friends, it’s about more than good food – it’s about moments that linger in memory. About conversations, shared laughter, and the feeling of being in the right place with the right people.
We’ve created a space where everyone feels welcome – with a concept that connects: authentic, stylish, open to new things. Come by, enjoy with us, and become a part of our Friends family.
