Restaurant de l'Hôtel de Ville
French Contemporary, Seasonal Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€€
In the centre of the village, near the bell tower, this quintessential rural establishment celebrates tradition quietly and simply. Beneath the vaulted ceiling of the dining room (refreshingly cool in summertime), you will taste a seasonal Gallic lineup with a choice of menus and courses. Grégory Halgand conjures up creative dishes such as asparagus, grapefruit and pistachio or Brittany lobster, red beetroot, blackberries and fish bisque. The desserts are the work of Audrey Feutren-Halgand, who also respects the seasons, with delicacies such as a medley of apricots (stewed, jellied and grilled

Gilles Varone
Modern Cuisine, Seasonal Cuisine · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
A cheerful buzzy vibe reigns in the new restaurant, decked in warm colours and natural materials, of Gilles Varone and his wife, Letizia. Following stints with Anton Mosimann, Gordon Ramsay and Claude Bosi in London, the chef, a local lad, conjures up unfussy dishes made with 100% Swiss produce. His score, as creative as it is spot on, is a consummate blend of delicacy and harmony as he expertly plays with textures. The culinary performance continues with a trolley of perfectly matured cheese… Take a seat near the huge picture windows, or at the counter for a close-up view of the work in the k

Diners will feel right at home in this charming and inviting restaurant. Set in a former bell foundry, the atmosphere is welcoming and delightfully down to earth. The blend of rustic and modern styles is interesting, and the art on the walls is sure to draw the eye. You can look forward to very friendly and attentive service, as well as pared-down and exceedingly flavourful dishes prepared by owner Nik Buchs. Popular choices here include true classics such as entrecôte or veal cutlet. The extensive wine list also includes organic and biodynamic wines. In summer, the terrace is a wonderful plac

Le 1913
International, Modern Cuisine
€€
This elegant restaurant, complete with a terrace commanding a knockout panoramic view of the mountains and valley, is located in the recently refurbished Villars Palace. The ambitious, structured cuisine combines regional and Mediterranean dishes in four- or six-course set menus. The creativity of the "Gambero Rosso", for example, a carpaccio of red prawns contrasted with a perfectly presented dill sorbet, is a case in point. The open kitchen means you can see Christian Bertogna's team at work!

Les Jardins de la Tour
French, Modern Cuisine
€€€
Ludovic Garnier (chef) and Christelle Huguenin (front of house) welcome guests into a deliciously inviting 19C house appointed in a wood-rich, chic rustic vein where a wood-burning stove is lit in winter. Diners choose between one of two menus with three or four courses that aim to highlight fresh, regional produce: seared foie gras with peaches, freshly caught zander and a chocolate mint delight to finish. A snug cocoon with small tables and spot-on service set the scene for a truly relaxing meal. Bookings recommended, particularly if you want to dine alfresco.

Le Roc
Swiss, Mediterranean Cuisine
€€€
The restaurant of the Hôtel de Rougemont serves classic French cuisine with a contemporary twist. The house-smoked salmon, green asparagus in breadcrumbs, salsa verde emulsion and citrus fruits makes a lasting impression… enjoyed in a delightful Alpine interior, tastefully decorated (old wood, light-coloured banquettes and seats, modern lighting), or on the terrace, with views of the mountains.

Le Cerf
Regional Cuisine, Seasonal Cuisine
€€
This century-old culinary institution is a renowned name in the region. Reinvented from top to bottom, it now serves good old unpretentious dishes in a traditional vein: for example, strips of veal from the Pays d'Enhaut, golden rösti and green salad… and let's not forget the malakoffs – fried cheese balls made with PDO cheese from the old fort in the valley – and the fondues! Cosy, rustic-style ambience, plus a superb terrace with mountain views.

Le Café Suisse
Modern Cuisine
€€€€
This former village café has morphed into a buzzy, friendly eatery decked in colourful cartoon murals. Youthful Marie Robert, assisted by an almost woman only team, wholeheartedly regales diners with creative, light-hearted dishes that are in tune with the seasons to be washed down with excellent local tipples. Robert has a flair for spontaneously showcasing seasonal ingredients. Examples include a mousseline of seabream enhanced by a whipped beurre blanc or an incredibly powerful and heady duo of blueberry and chocolate. Be bold and opt for her surprise menu – a hit with regulars, it is as pl
