Come inside and you’ll find that the large windows allow for an uninterrupted view of the slopes, lifts and people having fun on the snow.
The restaurant offers a full buffet breakfast menu for the early risers as well as a selection of a la carté options such as pancakes and berries or mountain-made muesli and fruit for a healthy start to the day.
At lunchtime, choose from a variety of dishes from around the world. You'll find curries, hot pots, daily noodle creations, fish & chips, lasagne, sushi, an extensive salad bar and plenty more. In a hurry? Grab one of our famous, melt-in-the-mouth hot roast meat rolls smothered in gravy.
