A historic hotel affording some of the finest views of the peaks of Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau, Restaurant Hotel Bellevue des Alpes is situated in one of the key areas of Jungfrau.

A small restaurant in the hill-station of Mürren, La Grotte Blumental is part of the Hotel Blumental.

The interiors of this hotel are lovely and home-like, featuring stone walls, wooden ceilings, lace curtains and cowbells. Be sure to stop by for a quiet and warm evening with some traditional Swiss food.

For a filling, inviting meal, choose Barry’s – their Mongolian barbecue meal is an excellent choice, with several options of vegetables, meat, fish, and prawns.

An atmospheric, rustic restaurant set in the charming car-free town of Wengen, Da Sina promises an inviting, cozy meal.

There’s also a pub inside, which is a popular place in Wengen to enjoy a drink.

A delicious Asian restaurant, Tham Kok Keong is a local favorite, especially as it is very reasonably priced for the area.

The dishes are prepared freshly in front of you by Tham, who was a five-star chef before coming to live in Mürren – and this is evident in his creations.
