Came back to Zermatt after three years. We were happy with this Pub the last time, so we decided to come back here for lunch. Setting is very nice, a typical pub with some Rock Music and some sports on TV. The windowfront is very nice and was (on this warm spring day) halfway open. Nice to watch the world go by. Staff was friendly and our lunch arrived fast. We ordered the Zermatt Burger with sides and a small serving of the Cordon-Bleu with sides. Both meals came with french fries and salad, as well as Mayo and Ketchup. The Cordon-Bleu was freshly prepared and crispy outside. The Burger was - again - a great choice. Good meat and topped with a good slice of real swiss cheese and a lot of onions. Which ist great, 'cause I love onions. No pickles or tomatoes in the Burger....fantastic! French fries were big cuts and homemade, hot and crispy. Good stuff! We had some Coke and Soda with. The Burger was only 20 CHF and the Cordon-Bleu only 13 CHF! Talk about value here in Zermatt. Fast food chains in town aren't cheaper....and this here tastes better. All in all a really great choice. Will definitely have lunch here again next time.

Staying nearby. Got takeout last night - small mixed salad for me, hot dogs (two ginormous ones) for him (my teenaged son). That salad was awesome. Had greens and beans and a sort of French-but-not-quite dressing... ...and we went back tonight. Got a stinky burger for me (I was starving) and two more hot dogs for him. Burger came with a massive side of fries. Bonus! But that burger - literally the best burger I've ever had. But they should rename it the Messy Burger. It was cooked perfectly, sort of falling apart but sort of not, and the cheese was kind of drippy but not toooooo drippy, and the onions were perfectly done, and the bun was like an everything bagel but softer, and I admit I have the worst breath EVER, but hey, I'm here with my kid, so who cares? Fantastic.

Note: there is a sign that says please seat yourself! No one will usher you in especially when it’s real busy. Afterwards, try to catch a staff’s attention if they haven’t come to you in a while. During peak hours, they’re very busy so please be patient! == We tried the Zermatter burger and Cheeseburger, and the final verdict was that while the Cheeseburger was good, the Zermatter burger was even tastier 😋😋 The burger set comes with fries and mayonnaise and ketchup sauces, by the way! Also, we tried the Cardinal Speciale and the Zwickel to go with our burgers. Also, the service was great as they’d check in with us during our meal and at the end they wished us happy holidays 😊 Merci!

One of our favorite spots in Switzerland to grab a pint and a burger. The food has always been quite good and the quality of the ingredients high for pub fare. They usually have a good mix of bottled beer available and the prices, while high across all of Switzerland, are fairly reasonable given the overall quality, presentation and preparation. The only recommendation would be an improvement in the service. It can be quite slow to get your drinks and order in, but once you do the kitchen seems extremely efficient. If you happen to be in a hurry just be aware that this isn’t fast food because it is delicious well prepared food.

We love this place. Very well priced for Zermatt, gets very busy but the staff does a great job keeping up with the crazy pace. Special thanks to Johann who made our meals there an even funner experience. No matter how slammed they are he always keeps his cool demeanor and always manages a quick hi or wave! We were happy to see him on our last day in Zermatt to say goodbye (or see you all again soon!) and we will definitely be back! Highly recommend the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. I got it again when we went back! Serving sizes are fantastic here and the tenders/nuggets are big!
