Good place for fondue in a nice open patio. Service was bad, our waiter wasn't kind and forgot to bring a couple of things. The bill was completely unreadable (and I think probably illegal). However it was full of locals having fun, so I guess it's a place to go if you know what you want, don't care much for service, and you can keep track of what you order.

As a local, I feel that most reviews here about the Café de l'Evêché are not truthful and must be corrected.

It's pretty straight forward: the place is known for their fondues! But it's also know to be noisy, crowded, often resulting in servers being stressed and sometimes a bit slow.

Don't go there is you want perfect ...

a bunch of us went for dinner and the service was horrible, the servers were rude and got frusterated easily. when we finally got our food, it was okay they forgot to give us patatoes and almost spilt the pot on one of our friends. when we were paying for the bill one of the servers refused to help us because we did not speak french to their ...

Took a long time to get seated. Owner and Hostess avoided us, waited at least 30 minutes just to order something. We heard the Fondue was good here but WE WERE MISTAKEN! The Fondue was expensive and was EXTREMELY salty. The waiter flipped the fondue pot and it spilled all over the table. Did not even serve us potatoes with the Fondue until we requested. Tried to overcharge us 20 bucks extra at the end!

we found worms in our mushroom fondue. Disgusting. Awful service, didn't even apologize or offer the coffees. Never again!
you can eat much better fondues in fribourg.

Good food in a good place where to meet the local atmosphere. A good value.

Greatly situated café just under the cathedral in the cité of Lausanne. Warm welcome and good food are anchored in this typical swiss bistrot. Cheap beers and reasonably priced food make it even more attractive. Has probably the best fondue in Lausanne

Here is where you want eat Fondue. Service is excellent on a swiss scale and the Fondue is the best in town. They say "Café Romand" has equal Fondue, but there the Service is atrocious. Of course atrocious Service is a quality mark in Switzerland.
