阿塔伦市政酒店

In a tastefully restored house in the village, Helena Collaud and Joeffrey Fraiche extend a big-hearted welcome. Two large colourful canvases set the tone in the smart, modern interior. The polished score highlights regional, but not only, produce. Enticing snacks, house-made bread and succulent combinations of ingredients: runner beans with Colonnata bacon, courgette flowers stuffed with fresh cream cheese and redcurrants; veal, carrots and apricots… At lunchtime, choose between a set menu or à la carte lineup; in the evenings a set several-course menu only. Fine selection of Swiss tipples an

Between Vevey and Corseaux, this establishment sports a warm, contemporary interior, depicted by a striking claret-coloured wall and a long wooden counter. The simple, spot-on concept revolves around a set midday menu and creative dishes to share in the evening. The culinary lineup shines the spotlight on premium produce: carpaccio of tuna with ponzu and miso, roast pork cutlet and a creamy blackberry and raspberry delight to finish. Alfresco dining on the patio in fine weather and cheerful, professional front-of-house service courtesy of the smiling owner. The establishment also organises pri

This somewhat inconspicuous Auberge is located in a small village set slightly above Vevey and the iconic Lake Geneva. Run by the Konrad family, the bustling restaurant, appointed in a low-key, modern vein and boasting a pretty terrace, offers a choice between sensibly priced flavoursome bistro classics and a gourmet menu. The fresh ingredients are seasonal and for the most part regional (vol-au-vent stuffed with calf’s sweetbread and Vevey pleurote mushrooms, lemon and cauliflower). However, the chef also finds inspiration in more international recipes, like 12hr-braised, Burgundy-style beef

After having been deserted for some 25 years, this former metal engineering workshop just behind the railway station has been revived by Jean-Sébastien Ribette and Sahondra Verdan. An off-kilter, smart industrial vibe sets the scene for a two-pronged culinary offer: brasserie fare on one side and a more ambitious menu in the gourmet section. Market availability dictates the score, hence the freshness of the ingredients, both at lunch and at dinner. Examples: tartare of red tuna in ginger and sake; confit of duck, shredded green beans and dressing; savarin of confit of lemon drizzled in limonce

At the Hôtel Des Trois Couronnes, beautifully situated on the lakeside, chef Alastair Long offers authentic Japanese cuisine. Selected products (e.g. Hamachi, Kagashima Wagyu, scallops, etc.) are given pride of place. In the evening, three menus are available: ‘Signature’, ‘Connaisseur’ and ‘Kaiseki’, while at lunchtime a more affordable lunch menu is available. Service takes place in an elegant atmosphere, under high ceilings decorated with stucco. In summer, the terrace is a veritable dream, offering magnificent views of the lake and mountains.

The classic elegance of the Grand Hôtel du Lac, designed by architect Ernest Burnat, is the perfect setting for Chef Guy Ravet's ambitious cuisine. The finest ingredients are used with mastery and skill, as in the case of the fillet of wild turbot, seared, with cauliflower mousseline, red onion and mustard seed condiment and beurre blanc with chives.

Opposite Le Baron Tavernier boutique spa hotel, you can expect pedigree Gallic fare with strong Mediterranean accents in a score that changes monthly. Both the signature and à la carte menus are defined by top-drawer produce, e.g. crudo of wild gambero, violet fig dressing and toasted buckwheat; local lamb cooked two ways, stuffed nidi di rondine (swallow’s nest pasta) and crispy chickpea fritters; strawberry and matcha tea tiramisu. For a jaw-dropping view of Lake Geneva, bag a seat by the window. In summertime, the outdoor bar is heaven for drinks, before or after dinner.
