Description

This gorgeous building, which started out as an inn in 1708, boasts an idyllic location just a few metres from the shore of Zugersee. Run by a mother-and-son team, the restaurant serves classic cuisine, with fish from the lake playing an important role, for example. A fine dining menu is also available, and in summer the charcoal barbecue is put to work. The service is charming and professional, and the atmosphere in the dining area is cosy. The fantastic terrace is understandably popular – it's wonderful to sit in the shade of the large trees and drink in the view of the lake!

Service is generally attentive and professional, though some reviews note delays during large events or organizational hiccups. The atmosphere is calm and elegant, making it suitable for birthdays or family gatherings.
