While there has been a restaurant on this site since 1902, the house was originally built in the 18th century. It is located just below the castle, between the town\u2019s former mills and the Seyon river.<\/p>\n<p>The opposite picture, from unknown origin, show the windows of the Cardinal from Rue du Seyon in 1976.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_half parallax_scroll_image last\" style=\"width:50%;\"><\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"one\" style=\"padding:0px 0 0px 0;\" >\n<div class=\"standard_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"page_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<div class=\"one_half content_middle animate textright\">\n<h3>An interior decorated in the Art Nouveau style<\/h3>\n<p>Built within the ground floor of a house built in 1733, Brasserie Le Cardinal is hardly noticeable from the outside. Only the flower motifs etched into the window panes hint at the splendours within. The interior walls are covered with tiles decorated in the purest Art Nouveau style of the Belle \u00c9poque (attached picture dating back to 1920&rsquo;s), depicting fantastical landscapes alive with waterfowl, wild flowers, peacocks, exotic parrots and fairytale castles. The outer fa\u00e7ade is considered a piece of architectural heritage. As early as 1905 it was chosen as one of the town\u2019s very first listed buildings and has been carefully cared for ever since.<\/p>\n<h3>A Restaurant since 1902<\/h3>\n<p>The restaurant\u2019s name dates back to the time when it was owned by the renowned Cardinal brewery of Fribourg, which sold its beer there from 1907 to 1940. The original features are remarkably preserved and the brasserie\u2019s service complements this to reproduce an authentic ambience. Traditional cuisine with \u201cbrasserie\u201d specialties is served alongside a lively bar, recreating a warm and friendly atmosphere that is typically Parisian.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_half last\"><\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"one\" style=\"padding:0px 0 0px 0;\" >\n<div class=\"standard_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"page_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<div class=\"one_half content_middle animate textright\">\n<h3>A Parisian Brasserie<\/h3>\n<p>Brasserie Le Cardinal, affectionately referred to by some patrons as \u201cLe Cardoche\u201d, has become an unmissable experience in Neuch\u00e2tel.
