Sulwald Stübli — Beim alten Haus 4071, 3822 Isenfluh, Switzerland

We wound up on Sulwald on a day that turned suddenly stormy. It turns out that the shift in weather was a wonderful thing because it sent us into the Sulwald Stubli. It's a wonderfully cozy little place that invites friendly conversations and warm gatherings. We sat at a table with delightful people from all over the world. But the best was yet to come... the amazing food. I had the incredible Stubli Hot Dog and my wife had the Knödel mit Boullion which she thought might have been the single finest treat of our trip. Service was wonderful and caring. Don't miss this place!

We had an amazing lunch at Sulwald Stübli! I know it may look like a simple sandwich and soup in the pictures. In reality, it was a fresh farm-to-table meal. I think my husband said it best. He said it was the best salami sandwich he has ever had. I know, right? I decided to go with the soup of the day that comes with mountain cheese and bread. Best decision ever! It was a yellow squash soup with hints of curry. It was fantastic! I'm not sure of the name for this mountain cheese. Is it Sulsalp? All I can say is that it was delicious, and beautifully presented with wild flowers sprinkled on top of the cheese. It was all very satisfying with the freshly made bread. A light & refreshing meal. We thought about sharing the cheese Fondue, but it was an unseasonably warm day. Another menu item that caught my eye was the Tyrolean Cheese Dumpling. I'd love to try that one day with a salad if we ever make it back to Sulwald. We also tried their signature ice tea which was herbal in flavor. It tasted refreshing and totally matched the natural scenery & ambiance around us. Our server was also wonderful & friendly. She made us feel welcomed. It truly was a beautiful day.

A hidden gem in the area. Beautiful views of the Jungfraujoch and a serene place of views and quiet. You can access this mountaintop restaurant with the Isenfluh/Sulwald cable car which is about 14,- euro’s for a round trip. Eating and drinking is a bit expensive but seeing as it is in Switzerland and on top of a mountain it is quite okay.

Just ordered a couple of drinks from here, after getting the cable car up from Isenfluh. Thought this might be a ‘budget’ way of getting a view of Eiger, Monch & Jungfrau at a quarter of the cost of going up Mannlicken & hiking the Panoramaweg on the other side so we did this first & yes you do get a good view of the mountains but it’s simply not as good as the other side imho. However, It’s fun driving up to Isenfluh through the spiral tunnel & then catching the cable car. The bonus of going up this side is that it is a lot quieter than the other side of the valley, so if you want to get away from it all, this is probably your spot! We were going to hike to the Lobhornhutte but it was a very hot day & we were simply too tired after weeks on the road by this point so opted against it. Would conclude that Sulwald is a nice, relatively peaceful place to just chill for a couple of hours as we decided to do.

This place was an incredible experience for us. On our way up to Lauterbrunnen we were stopped by police becuase of a running race. Instead of turning around we asked them what's up that side road and they said go have a look. Wow, a nice drive up to a small village with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains with nice homes perched on the mountain side overlooking the valleys below. We had a quick coffee at the Cafe there and the guy told us about the small gondola uo to the top of the mountain where we could see where the cows go in the summer time. A few bucks later we were on our way up the mountain. When we got to the top there was a great little eatery at the gondola landing site. We sat there and had a small platter of local cheeses and other bits and pieces while we looked over probably the most beautiful views we had ever seen, with Lauterbrunnen well below us. After a quick eat we walked around the farm lands along some tracks to open uo the views ever further. The pictures I have attached are lovely and provide great memories for us, but they, by no means account for the grand vistas and awe you will feel when walking around up here. After later visiting the busy Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald, we decided our trip up this mountain was the highlight of our time in Switzerland. Do yourself a big favour and poke your nose up this road and keep following it until you see what I mean!

We had the great luck to go there on a stunning (sunny and clear) working day. Meaning we were almost alone and we had no problems to sit on the terrace. I’ve been there other times and it was very crowded and impossible to sit outside. We ordered a classic fondue with potatoes, and it was perfect: taste and quantity. Being there, with that view, being hungry and taking a fondue and a beer was just amazing. Also the waitress was extremely kind. The capuccino and cake were also great. I totally recommend this place, but in high season, better to book in advance.
