Güterschuppen Arosa — Restaurant in Arosa

Whilst it was one of the many recommendations from our hotel, alas - we didn’t go with theirs and did our own research instead. Güterschuppen came up as highly rated and we had to check it out for ourselves. For our last night in Arosa we dined here after being in town for two weeks. We did make our reservation well in advance knowing all restaurants do get booked up post-Christmas - what with vacationers coming in hordes. It’s not our first time in Arosa but our umpteenth time, so we know what is the deal with the holidays. Honestly, we weren’t expecting much (if at all) and lo and behold, we were utterly surprised. The service won us over, so did the ambience/atmosphere, spacious interiors, high ceilings, and of course - the food. Despite how busy they were, the staff from the kitchen to the bar to the waiters all had it down to a science and operated like a well-oiled machine. We loved the host, whom was so accommodating and not only that - addressed us with kindness, courtesy, professionalism and fun. In addition, he was simply a delight. He wouldn’t even serve our table for the main course until I arrived back to the table from taking a break and led me to our table from outside while saying dinner is ready. Honestly, what a gentleman. He along with our waiter ensured our food was still hot off the press. Okay, onto the food - the salad was not to be overlooked (it was my uttermost ideal) and I have to remake this at home. It’s everything I’ve always envisioned and they brought it to life! How? Did you read my mind?! Just kidding. The Dijon chateaubriand was so much better than we’ve anticipated it to be, and while for two people - it was enough (and we came with empty stomachs). A minor tweak would’ve been ein bisschen weniger salz and while it’s our preference, we are aware it’s not everyone else’s. Nevertheless, it was tasty and we licked every morsel off our plate. Okay, the fries in Arosa, in Switzerland, in Europe in general - are simply better than ours. Once in a blue moon would I encounter the ideal fries to our liking but here in Güterschuppen and elsewhere locally - it’s just plain awesome. What can I say? They know their fries. Even the Swiss wines are so tasty and I’m a huge fan of Weißweine so I had to take advantage of theirs on the daily as I can’t get them back home. While it truly was unnecessary but nevertheless a kind gesture, the host felt apologetic due to tight quarters with our table and gave us each a shot. Truly, we felt blessed to be in such welcoming environment and with such lovely folks - that was simply enough but nevertheless, thank you for taking such great care of us from the beginning to the end. As for the decor, what can I say? Splendid, it’s right up our alley and if correct - it’s in the old train station which they made into a cavernous, modern space with a to-die-for fireplace. Also, I guess it must’ve been my place without realizing until the end when they played three of my songs - so I’m always down for that. All in all, it was 4.5 as we didn’t experience the entire menu but who cares? I’m feeling generous, they might as well deserve 5. When in Arosa, you bet your bippy we’ll be back in...

The best ribs I ever had. You cannot go wrong with that. Prices are modest and food was just fantastic. My wife took chicken - she was not disappointed either. It was good just a bit too spicy for her taste. Overall - this restaurant is the tremendous value for money.

Staff is super friendly. The location is nice with a good view to the lake and the mountains. Inside is cozy and modern. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the welcoming personnel. They did everything to make us happy. We did not reserve a table, but luckily there was some free slot in between. They offered us to use this time slot and have a dinner, that was a very nice gesture from their side. We did not feel being rushed or anything.

They also have kids menu - pasta from it was also very tasty! The portion was huge.

Seems they also have some live music nights (at least on Saturday when we were there), so maybe worth to reserve in advance.

Lovely,...

Lieber Leser, liebe Leserin

Kürzlich hatte ich das Vergnügen, den Güterschuppen in Arosa zu besuchen - und ich kann sagen, dass es sich absolut lohnt. Als ambivalentes Restaurant/Bar/Café bietet der Güterschuppen eine einzigartiges und unvergessliches Ambiente - für den Brunch bis zum letzten Drink.

Das Interieur lädt sofort zum Wohlfühlen ein. Der rustikale Charme angereichert mit holzigen Chalet- und Cheminéeflair sowie authentischem Eber an der Wand. Ein zartes Gefühl von Hüttengaudi kommt auf. Das Design passt wunderbar in das historische Bahnhofsgebäude. Die Einrichtung ist stilvoll und modern, ohne dabei over the top zu wirken - ein perfekter Ort für einen genussvollen Brunch, Lunch, einem Abendessen unter Freunden oder für einen Nachmittagsschwatz mit feinem Cappuccino mit Mum. Der Geruch im Güterschuppen vom befeuerten Ofen mag man oder nicht - für mich war es das Tüpfchen auf dem I.

Was das Essen betrifft: Unser gewähltes Menü war kreativ und innovativ, ohne dabei die traditionellen Aromen der Schweiz zu vernachlässigen. Die Anreicherung war beeindruckend, der Geschmack harmonisch und ich konnte förmlich die Leidenschaft spüren, die in das Gericht reingesteckt wird. Wir wählten die Kartoffelsuppe mit einer einzigartigen Schnittlauch-Öl Paste und frischem Brot. Die Röstung der Kaffeebohnen des späteren Cappuccinos traf meinen Geschmack - den mag ich.

Zum Personal des Güterschuppens: Wow, man spürt die Freude, die sie an ihrem Tun haben. Sie sind ein eingespieltes Team sehr freundlich, emsig und aufmerksam. Sie konnten uns ausgezeichnete Empfehlungen aussprechen und sorgten dafür, dass wir sogar noch ein zweites Mal vorbeischauten.

Alles in allem ist der Güterschuppen in Arosa ein absolutes Muss für alle, die auf der Suche nach einem kulinarischen Erlebnis sind. Der Güterschuppen bietet eine perfekte Kombination aus erstklassiger Küche, tollem Ambiente und hervorragendem Service. Wir kommen...
