Drehrestaurant Hoher Kasten in Sennwald

It was an unforgettable, beautiful day. THANKS

Very nice house and fantastic view.

It's a fantastic experience up there! This view from the revolving restaurant! 👍

A great day above the fog. Very good food in the revolving restaurant. Friendly service. The gondola ride to the mountain station was also very educational. The cabin crew explained the surrounding landscape in detail

Very nice view in the revolving restaurant. The staff is very professional and helpful. I'd love to come back.

Very courteous, considerate and organized service. Vegan and gluten free was also available. Food very good every time. Not only worth a visit during the full moon. Thanks!

The food was very good and the staff was very friendly and attentive.

The view is unique, a trip to the Hoher Kasten is really worth it. Unfortunately, gastronomy wasn't really convincing. What was noticeable were the dry vegetables (hardly any taste) and the overcooked veal slices.

We had made a reservation and after a long wait (the staff was chattering) we were shown to our place. We were able to order the drinks immediately, and it took a while before we were allowed to order the food. It only took several times to notice that we were able to order the food (the staff was chatting again and inattentive) Food wasn't a highlight but ok, portion was good. The ambience is outdated, loveless, the restaurant is reminiscent of a canteen. A visit to the restaurant was not an experience. We were compensated by the great view with the food but we wouldn't come back. Price performance is not right.

A brilliant view that you can enjoy in all directions, especially if you get a seat right by the window. The prices are typically high in Switzerland, but what else would you expect. Conditions very friendly and helpful. Overall a great experience.

Very nice restaurant. Because it rotates you always have a different view. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The cuisine offers regional specialties. It is advisable to reserve a place.

Great view but the revolving restaurant makes everything bad. Keep in mind that you eat normally in the restaurant, the trip by train for 2 adults costs at least 200.-- Fr., so the restaurant should be of better quality. The service was good and suggested the pork fillet. This pork fillet was very hard-fried all over from the day before and was almost dry inside. Yes, we were hungry, I ate it, but I should have sent the plate back. No 120g pork fillet two small pieces of the end part and warmed them up, you don't do that, vegetables and fries OK. We had made a reservation, the waitress, who did her best, was understanding but couldn't do anything, even though she passed my complaint on to the kitchen. She still got a good tip from us. But the kitchen manager and the boss are below standard, we only got an apology from the waitress. So burned down as tourists. My conclusion: I don't know whether I'll go again and only order what's on the menu, otherwise you might get something from the day before.

Small portion (Leberli) was good, but too expensive.

Simply great...you definitely have to visit when the weather is good...

Today on the Hoher Kasten it was -10 degrees. Almost lost fingers. 😃 But it was so worth it. Fantastic weather, views simply fantastic.

Great food, great weather, great view!

Very relaxed atmosphere, the cable car ride is a bit expensive, but it's worth visiting the revolving restaurant. Great view, the food was great, the staff is also very friendly. Reservation in advance is recommended as it is quite popular and otherwise you have to wait for a free space.

Great restaurant. We enjoyed the morning buffet. Large selection of cheese, bread, muesli, drinks etc. Up and downhill journey including buffet was 60.00 per adult. The view was great, but of course this depends on the weather. The staff is attentive and friendly. I can only recommend.

It was very nice, the food was good Service was nice

It's worth a trip - very nice restaurant - very friendly service and fine food - with a beautiful view! 👍👍👍

The full moon dinner was very nice and all the employees were absolutely friendly.

The breakfast buffet was simply a feast. There was everything your heart could desire. Great price/performance ratio. The staff very friendly. The great view rounds everything off. We recommend.

Absolutely friendly, attentive and courteous staff. The food is beautifully prepared. It is advisable to reserve.

Super excellent service. Very good food

Great service and fine food. Besides the view a must visit this place.

Beautiful and great food and drinks

Magnificent place to eat on the go or have a snack. There are two restaurants. On the first floor it is self-service with a large terrace and on the second floor with service staff, more chic and with a rotating floor. The prices are quite high but the place is magnificent. Reachable by cable car from Brülisau or on foot. Possibility for numerous hikes.

We attended the full moon dinner or “gala dinner” on Saturday, September 2nd. The starter buffet was very varied and tasty. Unfortunately, the main course selection that followed was very disappointing. The fish crispies were very fatty and the couscous was extremely dry. Dessert consisted of a plum jam and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Unfortunately overall very disappointing for a so-called gala dinner for a price of 105 CHF (including train journey but excluding drinks).

It is an experience whether you go up it on foot or with the cable car. Highly recommended

Interesting experience. However, the restaurant is usually full, so reservations are required, especially to get a window seat. We ordered late. It was quite good and sufficient for lunch. The experience depends mainly on the weather.

Great crew and fine desserts. Keep it up!

We received a voucher for brunch at the Hoher Kasten. It was an exceptionally nice morning and we ate more than one round of the revolving restaurant. The staff was very friendly and expeditious and the food at the buffet was plentiful and delicious. It is mandatory to make reservations or you won't get a seat.

We were invited to breakfast, a sensationally fine selection, cheese, rösti, muesli, Schlorziflade, etc. Gladly again!

I missed the recent Appenzeller cheese on the breakfast buffet. We are in Appenzellerland

Very tasty food. Great, fast service from the young team Ambiance... a bit bland and between old and new

Very good Vesperplättli eaten with a great view in the revolving restaurant

Great swiss breakfast with some traditional options. Recommend getting there early to enjoy the experience and take your time. Can get very busy

Full moon dinner was great and is highly recommended.

Great mountain with a fantastic view. Breakfast buffet highly recommended. Friendly staff throughout, especially the train staff 👍 Coffee: a fine espresso would be the icing on the cake.

An interesting dining experience in a moving restaurant. Very tasty traditional Swiss cuisine. And, of course, incredible views

Very friendly welcome and service that responds to guests' wishes. Seat reservation worked. Food, wine, coffee and dessert excellent, i.e. gelati ice cream. View unique.

Fantastic. From the pleasant conductor on the cable car, the beautiful rotating restaurant, awesome Rösti and rässe Appenzeller Käse...great way to start the day. Wonderful Alpen Gartenlandschaft as well!

I can only recommend the brunch with descent. The service was very nice and attentive, the selection for brunch was extremely good and attention was paid to food waste. Gladly again!

Excellent food, very nice staff, great views, lots of hiking options. The full moon dinner remains unforgettable! Thanks to all

Great breakfast buffet We recommend

Very lousy service from the waitress. They would better offer if they recruit more custumer-friendly staff and fire the current one. The food is overpriced for the quality you get.The view is unquestionably nice!

Very nice atmosphere in the revolving restaurant with a great 360° view. The food was excellent from the salad to the dessert. The service was very friendly and attentive. Thank you very much Yvonne for your upbeat manner, you even get 6 stars. Eating out is really fun. We'll definitely come back. Best regards Rolf and Stefan

Beautiful view. Delicious food.

I got food poisoning from your food yesterday. Thanks! 🤮

We had the Full Moon Diner. This was really great, the food was fantastic, the view was fantastic and the service was excellent. Absolutely recommended.

Everything is supper everything is divine. Only menu really needs to be revised. And at low loads over 25 minutes for the soup is awesome.

Excellent viewing point on top of Hoher Kasten. Prices for drinks are good given the monopoly.

Great 365 panorama in the revolving restaurant. The meal was excellent. The train journey only takes 8 minutes.

Unfortunately no view due to fog.

Highly recommended. Friendly welcome at Kasten Bahn. Friendly, personable staff! Menu 1A..

Full moon diner on the high box. One word..EXCELLENT Food TOP Staff FRIENDLY, ATTENTIONAL and ACCOMMODATE. It's great if you can still be a guest. We'll definitely come back.

46 CHF per person for up and down. I find that expensive. But the view is very nice and the restaurant is very nice. If you can, you can also hike. But it was too difficult for us. Everything is very modern and nice to look at. The view paid off and my wife was happy 😄👍 The coffee and apple strudel were good. The service too.

It was a very good morning meal and a nice view

Really nice there and nice service

Great experience Would love to do it again Can only recommend it

Great view, exemplary service Cold plate plentiful and good. Overall a very nice experience Restaurant inexpensive Overall not cheap...

Food was not good in terms of price and perfomance. Some meat wasnt fully cooked and the Sauce wasnt special. Schnitzel very small and basic. saladsauce pre bought. toilet smelling awfull. i guess drinks and stuff are okay but how could you go wrong there thought this was some highclass food place but it seems more like a tourist attraction for people who like to spend money. wouldnt recommend it if you want some gourmet food just swiss normal dishes you can get served at otherplaces for a normal price ngl tho the view can be good and the idea is nice too

When the weather is nice there is a fantastic view and you can go hiking

Breakfast is always a highlight...selected regional delicacies with a wonderful view...always a pleasure

An absolute must for anyone who lives or is on vacation in the area. Sunday breakfast at the Hoher Kasten is awesome. With a view over half of Eastern Switzerland when the weather is good. Brilliant. Will be back in 3 weeks

Very nice restaurant, with tasty food and because the restaurant rotates very slowly you can see the entire panorama in 1 hour. Service is friendly and helpful.

The restaurant is absolutely great! Top, view, service, menus and location. Everything fine.

Top service, very good cuisine and wonderful panoramic views

Slightly blow-dry Great distant view Even in the cable car you are greeted almost personally Only a few people during the week Eat well in the revolving restaurant

It's almost a bit too classy for a mountain restaurant, which attracts many a tourist. That's why it's often overcrowded. But the food and service are great! And there is a lot to discover all around.

Delicious, pleasant and the location is amazing. The restaurant rotates slowly for an hour, you make the whole circle and you see all the stunning scenery around

Great revolving restaurant with magnificent views. Good time

Very friendly, courteous and personable service. Worth a visit even in bad weather!

Very beautiful place and amazing restaurant with great views outside

Friendly service, good food and great views! Recommended (with reservation) Gladly again.

Very good friendly service excellent food, impressive revolving restaurant

Very friendly service and the sausage salad was excellent

Great views at almost 1,800 m altitude. Fantastic walk up from Bollenwees

Top service.Top view.Good food.Could pay with Reka. Thanks to the rotating movement, every table has the best view.

Very rich brunch with a lot of variety of choice Too bad we didn't enjoy the view because it was raining But we were in the clouds

We went to the full moon dinner, a very nice experience. The food was great and the staff were very friendly and up for a joke. The views over the Appenzellerland, the Alpstein and the Rhine Valley are simply fantastic. Will go again.

Very good food and very friendly service

Great view and good service in the revolving restaurant

Excellent service/Very good food/ Very nice location

Rich brunch. Nice experience in the revolving restaurant.

Great all-round view over Lake Constance, Austria, Lichtenstein and the Alpstein. Very worthwhile day trip. With the Oskar guest card the train is even free

Very nice service, good and sufficient portions. We recommend.

Be sure to have breakfast in the revolving restaurant! Reservation strongly recommended

Beautiful view and a great trip! The cable car ride was also very pleasant on both routes. The Vesperplättli in the revolving restaurant and the friendly service left nothing to be desired.

The extraordinary location corresponds excellently with the quality of the food on offer. In addition, there is a service that always lives up to its name. I would like to give it six stars.

Beautiful view with a rich breakfast buffet. Very friendly and attentive staff.

Nice restaurant with a great view. Very friendly staff.

Top recommendation for a visit even with small children, paths suitable for strollers but also very friendly staff in the restaurant and fine food, great dessert menu, especially the Appenzeller Glacé. Not to mention the view :)

I have rarely experienced such friendly and courteous staff as here.

Sehr gut steak Very delicious food and the view worth it !

Visit over lunch after the climb from Brülisau via Fählensee. Great ambience Super friendly, warm service Enjoy your meal

After a sweaty climb, we were warmly welcomed up here in the restaurant by the service experts. Of course we quenched our thirst with a cool Sonnwendlig (non-alcoholic beer from the Appenzeller Locher brewery). This was served shortly after ordering. We were blown away by the menu, for once there was a selection for our daughter, who eats vegan. The beautifully presented vegetables had a bite and my vegetarian meatloaf was amazing. To top it all off, I was also offered a supplement (“glutton with ravenous hunger” 😉), which I gratefully accepted. Anyone who complains about Swiss gastronomy and points out the hospitality of their Austrian neighbors should come here. He can save himself the trip across the Rhine and enjoy the view while eating. If you prefer to take the climb more leisurely, you can use the cable car. Children up to 14 ride for free - really family-friendly!

Large revolving restaurant 🍽 with a great panoramic view 360• 🤩. Friendly attentive staff 👩🏻&🧑🏻. All of the dishes we ordered were delicious 😋.

Simply great. Great staff. It is simply recommended. (despite the bad weather).

Great service, very accommodating.
