On the way up from south of the Alps I always used to stop in the Palace in Luzern for luncheon…read more However this time I decided to take a look at my trusty old Michelin guide and was directed to the Seehotel Pilatus' Restaurant. We sat inside, because the terrace was still too cold, but even from inside the view over Lake Lucern and onto the mountains was almost as spectacular as from the Palace. Food-wise we took a set 4-course menu at 59CHF. I believe during the week prices are even more reasonable. The food was excellent, the cook clearly had an ambition to maintain a very very decent standard and service was discreet, fast and extremely friendly. I would recommend this place as a good stopover from the motorway for those who are more discerning about the way in which the take their rest-stops.

You can find better food in skiing stations, but it will be 4 to 5 times the price of a meal you would get here. You can find cheaper food as well, but it likely would be a dried-out sandwich or an energy bar. This is the only place to my knowledge that offers a proper meal (whole made-on-the-spot pizza, Lasagna, half-chicken) for a price that's closer to 15 CHF than to 20 CHF. The quality is pretty darn good - all the food is cooked on the spot, and while it's not quite high gastronomy and you are in a self-service, the food is delicious, well-balanced nutritionally and the restaurant provides an abundance of choice. For those unsatisfied with the choice at the main service, there are as well crepe station - a place where crepes are prepared right in front of you with a selection of fresh ingredients you choose yourself. The sitting area is large, with both inside and outside section, both giving onto a breathtaking panorama of Alps and with abundant seating even for large groups.
