Restaurants
Whatever the season, there’s nothing better than sitting down to eat with friends and family in an intimate setting. With over 100 restaurants, there’s something for everyone. The diversity of Gstaad’s restaurant scene is second to none: with everything from cosy inns to charming fondue bars and tearooms for coffee and cake, you simply can’t go wrong.
Fine dining
With a total of 317 GaultMillau points and three Michelin stars, the Gstaad region and the Rougemont area nearby are jewels of the culinary scene. Indeed, Gstaad has become so renowned as a dining destination that foodies flock here from abroad to eat. And rightly so: the ambitious teams of chefs conjure up chic culinary delights that delight the eye and the taste buds in equal measure.
Mountain restaurants
Set amid snow-covered peaks, mountain restaurants and their sun terraces make the ideal retreat to warm up and relax during a day on skis or a winter hike. Indulge in culinary delights in a cosy atmosphere while gazing out over the sparkling snowy landscape. These are winter moments to treasure forever.
Fondueland
The secret’s out: speciality cheeses from the Gstaad holiday region are now world-famous. In winter, our five giant caquelons are easily accessible for cheese lovers on foot, by toboggan or on snowshoes. On the Rinderberg, the giant caquelon is right beside the ski slope. Sit back and indulge amid glorious mountain scenery: pick up a fondue backpack containing produce from local dairies for an authentic fondue experience.
