We went there for the 'Sunday Brunch' breakfast buffet, which is pretty great. All sorts of fresh bread, cheese, cereals, meat (including salmon), roesti, bacon and sausages, beverages and so on. Very delicious - just make sure you have enough time and maybe don't eat for a few days before you go. One thing they could improve on would be fresh juices and a wider variety of eggs. And while it's totally worth it, the breakfast is pretty expensive because you also have to get a ticket to the top of the mountain to get there (well you could walk, but that would take you at least three hours of walking up a mountain; on the bright side you'd be very hungry by then), but if you stay around for a b...
The gondola up to the Stockhorn is breathtaking. Pleasant middle station has a beautiful lake. Once you transfer to the top you have vistas all around (thanks to the viewing center carved right out of the mountain!) The restaurant has tables inside and outside depending on weather. We sat outside and had one of the two specials offered. We chose the salad (but the soup was good too) and Raclette. The Raclette was garnished with colorful, delicate alpine flowers. It was very Swiss and Very good! For dessert we had chocolate ice cream with whipped cream on top. Dessert was garnished with strawberry and mint. Perfect!
We visited on what may have been one of the busiest day of the year, so maybe the staff was a bit overwhelmed. But at 2pm there was no hot food available in the self service section anymore and we didnt want to loose time waiting to be served in the 'proper' restaurant. So we just had some dry overpriced sandwiches and overheard how the staff quarreled about lunch time breaks etc. Not great.
The food was good and fairly rapidly served even on a busy day, but not all the serving personnel were friendly and the price is high for what you get. There is not over much space inside, and out on the terrace there can be a cool wind, even on a fine day, you may need warm clothing!
Wonderful views and given the location reasonably priced too. Just sit and take in the scenery, you won't be hurried.
