Hôtel Cailler & Bains de la Gruyère

Attractive picture windows, elegant pale wood, and a menu that takes the four seasons as its starting point, as reflected in the market-fresh ingredients. Locally grown vegetables, fish from the nearby lakes and Swiss meats are accompanied by an appealing wine list that focuses on local producers. Delight in dishes such as morel stuffed with Agria potatoes and Vully asparagus tips. Friendly service and attractive guestrooms at Hotel Cailler.

Fine dining is not the only option! Hotel Les Montagnards offers a culinary experience that goes beyond its renowned restaurant Le Sommet. The Brasserie can hold its own! The attractive modern interior featuring warm wood and sleek design is as much of a draw as the friendly service and, last but not least, the good cuisine. Here, the focus is on the region and the changing seasons. One of the house specialities, for example, is stuffed morels with a cream sauce. The pike-perch, fished from local lakes, is another popular choice. Tip: Try to get a window seat, then you can take in the view of

In this 19C mansion in Bourguillon, Romain Paillereau signs supremely delicate cuisine. The chef cherry-picks his ingredients, crafting them into outstanding dishes such as leeks confit in orange or Atlantic cod with sea urchin and lovage. We fell in love with his unorthodox work with Chappuis pork, mint, shellfish and lemon. Gutsy sauces and stocks reveal expressive flavours, enhanced by a wine list that slaloms between Switzerland and France. The interior errs towards modern downstairs and historic upstairs, the service is spot on, while the terrace shaded by plane trees adds a final flouris

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

Behind its wooden façade, this cosy restaurant in the heart of the village is making a strong statement about its commitment to sustainability. Just as simple and pleasant as the interior, the small terrace at the front is a charming setting in which to enjoy carpaccio of Lake Geneva whitefish, with a tangy cream and crunchy vegetables, or one of the delicious game dishes prepared using animals hunted in the surrounding forests.

Housed in a tastefully renovated traditional edifice, the Auberge de la Couronne morphs from a simple bistro at lunchtime into a fine dining gourmet establishment in the evenings. Generosity and indulgence are the order of the day in dishes such as crisp golden roasted sweetbread served with fresh crayfish and crunchy glazed mini vegetables. The front-of-house team is on hand to help you find the perfect food-wine pairing as you take a seat in the handsome vaulted dining room.

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.
