Fonduestübli Moosmatt

Enjoy the chilly winter evenings away from the hustle and bustle with a tasty cheese fondue in the Neustadt quarter. The Moosmatt restaurant's traditional fondue parlour is again welcoming diners from mid-November to mid-March.

Wilhelm Tell Restaurant Ship

Twenty fondue variations featuring cheese from the Barmettler dairy are served on the winter deck and in the saloon. This vintage paddle steamer is permanently moored on Lucerne's lakeside promenade. The views of the lake, the city, the mountains – and the kitchen! – are enchanting. Fondue is served from October to April.

Titlis-Hütte Seeburg

This is a place where you have a fondue as if you were on the mountain – but in the city. The venerable Rigi Room of the Hotel Seeburg has been transformed into a unique authentic-looking chalet. The romantic alpine chic with food from the mountains, fine wines and friendly service is yours to enjoy between November and March.

Seehotel Kastanienbaum

Fancy some cosy moments over a good fondue? Then pay a visit to the Seehotel Kastanienbaum between November and February: the timber hut on the terrace is equipped with rustic benches, and half of it can be closed to the elements. Cosy warmth is provided by an open fire, as well as fluffy blankets and hot-water bottles.

Zunfthausrestaurant Pfistern

Hearty meals are something of a tradition here; you'll be spoilt for choice. Choose your favourite from 100 cheese fondue variations. Wrapped in cosy blankets and with a warming bag of heated cherry stones on your lap, savour the homemade fondue in the enchanting «Unter der Egg» winter forest between 29 October 2021 and 9 January 2022.
