Description

The 14th generation of the same family is at the helm of this gorgeous traditional Bernese inn – it was first documented in 1261. Whether you eat in the pretty, inviting dining area or the lovely garden, you will be treated to friendly service and delicious food with a traditional regional character. One speciality of the house is the Solothurner Wy-Süppli (wine soup). The chef will be happy to explain the origins of their rather special "Bärechöpfli" dessert. Slightly reduced menu at lunchtime. There are also stylish salons.
