Rothorn Kulm in Brienz (BE)

Very varied and high-quality selection at the breakfast buffet.

A nice experience. My spaghetti e.g. B. Goods great! Prices are appropriate View/the weather does what it wants. Pure nature. Otherwise very good!

A visit to this place is definitely worth the money 😍 the views are simply breathtaking, relaxing for the soul, it seems you can reach the clouds, birds fly beautifully nearby. Very tasty food, especially liked the grilled sausages and dessert. By the way, the prices are not as high as I expected. Friendly staff🥰

Winter is the best time to visit.

The food (summit burger) is sensational and the staff is very friendly. Definitely worth a visit!

Kitchen and services too few staff Kitchen gives out food that isn't ready yet Kelner barely understands German

Thank you very much for the great vegetarian food that I received. The food was great, the service was also great and we received Proseco and flowers for our wedding anniversary. All I can say is wow, thank you very much!

Worst service I have ever experienced in Switzerland... you had to wait over 40 minutes for 4 drinks. and that due to poor organization!!! When you approached the service woman behind the bar to place your order, you were told that she couldn't take an order. Strangely enough, 5 minutes later it still worked. My grandfather was in front of me, he was rushed from one counter to the other for a tomato soup but no one wanted to take his order... When he asked the chef-de-service what that was about, he was told and I quote: Quiet old man! Don't let them have another heart attack!... what's this mess??? In my opinion -5 stars would be the right rating!!! I won't go there again for the next 2-3 years!!

Worst experience ever! No service system at all and rude workers.

So far we have always been thrilled and everything was perfect. Unfortunately the entire occupancy has now changed. Breakfast is only available in summer. Service was very bad even when we sat alone in the restaurant.

Prices ok for Switzerland, but food was disappointing. The Rösti is swimming in fat, the vegetables come from the prepackaged and the schnitzel is thin and small. The view is very nice, although that is not the restaurant's credit.

Friendly service and quick service, Rösti was dripping in oil and caused more stomach pain than satiety. Hot chocolate was delicious. I prefer the soup of the day and fries. No vegetarian alternatives on the menu other than salad and soup

We were in the restaurant a year ago. Food and service have significantly deteriorated. My goulash was lukewarm, the bratwurst was anything but hot, and the sauce had too much salt. View is the same, 1A+

Nice little restaurant on top of the mountain a good selection of mini for interior staff recommended.

We had a seat, got the meal menu at 12:50 and chose food and waited to be able to order. Then the waitress came and told us we can no longer order. (warm food was at the door until 3:30 p.m.). We both paid almost 100chf to eat here with a view. Finally we were sent away with the information that there would be no more food today. We went. 20 minutes later there was food again. Absolutely the last one!

Was under renovation, unfortunately couldn't eat outside! There is no photo🙈

Ages of endless waiting in everything. chaotic understaffed

The weather was great for us on our trip to the Brienzer Rothorn. We explored the area extensively and then visited the packed restaurant. We quickly found space at a large table that was already occupied and waited for the waiter. There were three people bringing food and clearing tables, but only one of them was taking orders. Then came the first disappointment: last year (2021) we ate a truly divine cheese slice with bacon, which I was really looking forward to. Unfortunately, this is no longer on the map. The fried fish we ordered instead was actually very tasty and very attractively presented. The second disappointment came when our plates were cleared away and the bread that was still in the basket was taken away, even though we still had a beer in front of us and had really enjoyed eating the bread with it. Then it was time to pay as the cable car was supposed to leave in about 15 minutes. The only waiter authorized to take cash had disappeared. The other two and the lady behind the counter didn't know where he could be. Thank God the payment was made shortly before departure, but we weren't happy. Our conclusion: Great mountain, restaurant not uncomfortable, food good, but the staff has room for improvement.

Very fine and inexpensive food for a summit restaurant. Very friendly service.

Lunch was good but unfortunately not warm. But big portion. Service quite friendly. Something needs to be renewed and cleaned a bit. Otherwise, a great view and a cool ride to Brienz on the steam locomotive.

Nice place but the food is a disaster. Staff nice

Beautiful view. There are not so many tables outside but we managed to grab one because we're... pushy. ;) Our waiter was quite attentive. We had some nice salad, rösti and pomme frits... what more could you want?

Fondue Chinoise evening was perfect. Good, various fresh meat, various sauces, mixed vegetables, fries and rice. Great service and a great price including a cable car ride up and down and an aperitif. We will come back.

Yesterday we went to the Chinoiserie evening. The food was very good and there was a lot of room for improvement in the service. There was actually enough staff on site, but very unmotivated. So we ended up sitting in front of a completely cleared table for 25 minutes.

We wanted to finish off with a green salad. The salad was just terrible. Extremely bitter, too little sauce and even served with a salad topping. Probably salad from Migros or Coop. Made cheaply and sold expensively, a shame.

The restaurant staff is unfriendly and has no concept of service, as it should otherwise be in the catering industry. The facility is certainly outdated, but the restaurant's toilets are disgusting and dirty. 1-2 years ago it was friendlier and more appealing at the Rothorn summit restaurant. It is well known that there is currently a shortage of staff in the catering industry, but other destinations are also struggling with this issue but still provide basic services. Management and shareholders should seriously think about how they want to continue in the future.

Overpriced and bad prepackaged food. The salad was fresh and was delicious too. I could only eat half as the salad was swimming in salad dressing. Disappointing for the high price and the waiter just said "I wish you a nice day" when I complained. I have eaten in many countries and Switzerland is one of the worst and most expensive countries!!!!!

Despite calling, we couldn't order.

The brunch after sunrise was very modest. Price performance is not right at all. The buffet was already empty before the first round. Long wait until it was refilled. Selection also very limited. Finally, fried eggs could be ordered. The order wasn't distributed so the eggs were already cold. It's a shame, we were all looking forward to brunch.

Expensive food for poor quality and unfriendly service and they hardly understand any German. No one served ice tea at lunchtime anymore. However, a good view. Next time I'll come with my own food.

Arrived 15 mins before kitchen closing time according to the sign. Waiter was more interested in counting the receipts at the end of the day than picking orders. 25 mins or so later when someone did pick up the order of course they said the kitchen is closed. Great.

We wanted to toast with a drink after a strenuous hike. To our surprise, at 4:30 p.m. all the service employees were already sitting at a table at the Natel and said they were closed and there was nothing left. However, this was nowhere advertised and according to Google it was open until 5 p.m.!!!! Only after asking several times did the boss serve us something to drink, which was good, but we were then locked out of the sun terrace. The service staff should urgently learn customer friendliness again.

The service was unfriendly and barely understands German. Food was OK, but rather expensive. If you want a dish from the menu with salad instead of fries, this doesn't seem to work. Delivery time was very fast, so there is still a 2nd star..

Friendly service, very good food. The Austrian boss was very nice. We'll definitely come back. Greetings from Styria 🤗👌

Thank you for your friendly service.

The terrace is closed at 3:25 p.m. on a beautiful and warm Sunday and the chairs are tied together... I can't understand it.

Very friendly service, great view. Unfortunately, at the beginning of the afternoon, on a Sunday, half of the menu was no longer available. I think it's a bit of a weak performance

Bad service, food burnt and the other not fresh. The price is exorbitant for this quality!!

Unfriendly staff, you could tell that they had no interest in guests. Several guests had a lot of patience, but left after such a performance! Then we left without eating!

I wanted to enjoy a hamburger and fries with a beautiful view. My wife ordered a hash brown with bacon and a fried egg. The hamburger and hash browns were burnt. We complained to the service employee but she didn't understand German well. Since we were hungry and wanted to take the next descent, we ate it. When we paid the bill we reported it to the waiter. He would report it to the kitchen, was the only comment.

At 4:30 p.m. there was nothing left to drink and they would have already settled! This on a Saturday with beautiful weather! You don't have to understand that, right? No more!

I was in the restaurant on July 9th and had a great meal. The waitress (Monika) looked after us in a very friendly and charming way! I'll be happy to come back soon and thank you very much to Monika. With best regards Dmitri :-)

Amazing views. The rösti was perfect. Quick service and decent prices.

Very good price-performance ratio. Friendly service.

Great food and excellent service, very friendly staff

Very friendly staff. Everything was tip-top! It's nice. ! Thank you

The only downer was the weather forecast from SRF, which predicted brilliant weather, but that didn't happen. Otherwise we had a nice trip. Very courteous and friendly employees everywhere at the train station and in the restaurant. The food was simple but very well prepared. We'd love to come back!

Nice service and delicious food. And breathtaking views😳😃😃😃

Very hospitable and great service! Price/performance excellent! Can highly recommend the restaurant!

Friendly service, the food is excellent and the chef comes to the table every time. Of course the view depends on the weather, but when it's right it's sensational.

Breathtaking view. Good restaurant with friendly staff.

Simply great.....!!! Great value for money and the view is amazing.

The plate is generously topped and the service is pretty quick. They're not exactly friendly, but it's certainly not an easy job either. The view makes up for it ;)

A beautiful restaurant at the top

Even though I arrived 5 minutes before the restaurant closed and just asked for directions, the staff gave me extremely friendly and competent advice about travel connections and visiting the Brienzergrat. If I'm on the Rothorn again, I'll definitely eat here!

The smaller of the two restaurants. Very friendly staff, quick service and very well cooked. Price performance perfect.

Very nice and courteous staff. Great advice for the tour over the Rothorn ridge, she took her time and the tour was a success. If the employees are as prepared as they are, it must be really good. I'll make time to eat another time

Very fast and friendly service, prices are completely reasonable.

The friendly and courteous nature of the host and all the staff is a joy. Plus fine food. What more do you want

The staff is very friendly. The prices are not too expensive, very humane. Nice view and the food is very good. I can recommend it to everyone and then or beforehand go up to the Breinzer Rothorn and enjoy the view. ❤️😍

+ Top view + good nut stalks & coffee + nice service

Super fun and friendly crew! Once a year you MUST go to the Brienzer Rothorn 👍🤜🤛🇨🇭💘

Good quality dishes for a restaurant of this type, there is not a huge choice, the service is friendly.

Had a very nice lunch. Staff incredibly friendly. View sensational!!! Recommended!

Enjoyed a wonderful summit platter with regional products. I was even able to meet a Rothornmutschli, Mr. Buy Emmenegger. What a treat. Greetings from Emmental. Sandra and Max

Nous sommes venus avec un groupe de 30 personnes du Registre Suisse Alfa Romeo pour le repas de midi. Nous avons reçu un accueil très agréable de la manager et du personnel astreint au service. Les prix sont un peu élevés, mais justifiés en rapport du lieu. La carte n'est pas grande, mais les mets sont assez typiques pour le lieu. Service rapide et sympa.

Wir waren mit einer Gruppe auf dem Rothorn und haben auch übernachtet. Das Personal war freundlich aber überfordert mit den vielen Gästen an diesem Tag. So wurden Bestellungen verwechselt oder ganz vergessen. Im Restaurant innen fühlt man sich nicht wohl. Es wirkt wie eine alte Fest/Messehalle mit langen Tischreihen. Mit wenig Aufwand könnte man aber locker ein gemütliches Restaurant daraus machen. Die Preise sind normal für Schweizer Bergrestaurants.Das Frühstück war grosszügig und lecker - aber wieder in dem nüchternen Restaurant mit den langen Tischreihen (so 4-5 Tische in einer Reihe)

Familientreffen auf dem Brienzer Rothorn zum Vollmond-Dinner. Wir waren begeistert. Perfekter Service, der Hauptgang - Roastbeef - war einfach sensationell. Alles liebevoll zubereitet, der Pinot Noir aus der Bündner Herrschaft die ideale Weinbegleitung.Nach wolkenverhangenem Auftakt tauchte der Vollmond in sternenklarer Nacht die Talfahrt mit der Brienzer Rothorn Bahn in ein magisches Licht. Was für ein Abend.

We were able to enjoy a very, very good lunch up here after the breathtaking mountain ride. The staff is very, very friendly and the boss also thanks.

Lunch was very good and everyone found something tasty on the menu. Friendly and courteous staff who are also up for a few jokes. In addition, the view (luckily for us when the weather is good) is simply fantastic. I am looking forward to meet you again.

Fein gegessen das Menu und Älplermakkronen mit Speck. Pommes perfekt. Das Personal ist sehr herzlich. Ich kann das Restaurant sehr empfehlen.

Surprisingly good burger. Very friendly staff despite the number of guest and busy lunch time. Recommended.

That a reservation gets lost, ok. How a restaurant handles the situation, that's the question. Rothorn Kulm handled it really bad: long waiting, confusing information, no sorry no nothing. Placing guests from one place to another. I guess as a day guest it's ok. If you plan an event, I would be careful, call again and let confirm the reservation.

kalte platte bestellt (heizerteller) ... erstaunlich, dass auf dem angerichteten plättli modelschinken platz fand ... schade, da fühlt man sich verarscht ... zudem hat der kellner mit schnupfen und maske am hals seviert ... speziell für diese zeit.....

Waren im Restaurant Essen.Alles Topp.Herzlicher Empfang.Essen Topp.Kein langes Warten.Nettes Personal

Nach dem anstrengenden Aufstieg kehrten wir am Mittag ins Bergrestaurant ein. Super freundlich, extrem schneller und guter Service. Das Essen war absolut Bergrestaurant würdig! Nach den Strapazen des Trailruns auf den Gipfel war der Hunger gross und eine Portion Älplermagronen war genau das Richtige. Top Portion, top gekocht und alles recht speditiv gebracht. Kann ich sehr empfehlen!!!

Cibo buono, ambiente pulito, servizio buono. Possibilità di mangiare sulla terrazza panoramica che da sul lago, vista spettacolare!

Probably one of the busiest days of the season! It's 2 p.m. and we order soup of the day and fries. It still takes too long for the food to arrive. However, the payment process takes even longer, even though there are enough staff at work - an experience that I have again and again up here. Only when we get up and I stop an employee from walking past does anyone make an effort to look after us. If you want to take the gondola down to the valley, you have to order the bill early and/or show patience like the Dalai Lama. The soup tasted excellent - also beautifully prepared. The fries, on the other hand, were in the deep fryer for too long and the taste was not a revelation. After all: the view up here is probably the USP par excellence, which is why we keep coming here.

Visited on 02/15/20. Super nice view. Very nice service. The cheese slice was very good and the spaetzle was good. We will definitely come back again in the summer.

I went in mid-August 2019. It was a really cool experience. When I was going to Jungfrau, I saw a lot of people at the train station and changed places on the spot, and it was the best!! The food was delicious too!!

Small menu and forever long waiting time. The burger, however, was very good and the view was of course a dream

Friendly service, tasty coffee on the slopes, wonderful views.

Very good view, very cheap train in winter (10 CHF per person)

Die Aussicht vom Restaurant (innen wie außen) ist unglaublich. Je nachdem, wo Sie sitzen, können Sie den Brienzersee, den Eiger, den Mönch und die Jungfrau (und viele mehr) oder den Renberg, den Pilatus und die Schrattenfluh (und viele mehr) sehen. Wenn Sie drinnen sitzen, stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie einen Tisch am Fenster haben.Auf der Speisekarte finden Sie eine gute Auswahl an frisch zubereiteten Gerichten (traditionell, Burger, Suppen, Salate). Angesichts der Tatsache, dass alles mit Dampf oder Seilbahn geliefert werden muss, ist es beeindruckend, wie frisch und lecker alles ist.

Leider war unser Essen eine Katastrophe. Die Älplermakronen kalt und geschmacklich nicht der Hammer. Dafür war das Essen recht teuer. Das Personal war freundlich und bemüht.

View : wonderful Staff : nice Food : disgusting. My cake was from Migros almost not defrost

What a wonderful view while eating 😇 And my recommendation - the super tasty burger - a real treat without exaggerating... a solid 5 stars Very busy so plan a little more time...but with the view that's not a problem 😉

Everything perfect. Great buffet, friendly staff, a fascinating experience

Friendly, satisfied and very nice view

I would like to THANK the entire staff for the sensational evening at Fondue Chinoise that I was able to experience with you. I'm already looking forward to my next visit with you!!! Simply TOP!!!! And of course the great view can't be beat!!! THANKS !!!

Mieser, langsamer Service und ein Aufbackbaguette, das nicht mal aufgebacken war. Um 10:00 gab es die beworbenen Nussfächer schon nicht mehr zu essen. Dazu noch Nepp. Völlig indiskutabel.

Sehr freundlich und schnelle Bedienung Das Essen haben wir aber wo anders eingenommen . Es geht nicht bei 30 grad so eine große Terrasse und nicht 1 Sonnenschirm . Wir waren nicht die einzigen die aus diesem Grund das Restaurant wechselten .

Das Angebot ist reichlich, das Personal freundlich und wenn das Wetter es erlaubt hätte dann wäre auch die Aussicht dazu genial gewesen.... wir haben es trotz Nebel sehr genossen.

Great restaurant where the staff speaks "Swiss" German speaks. Attentive service, good food. Even the boss checked to see if everything was okay. Chapeau. The great view is free. Is worth a visit. Can highly recommend it. Many thanks to the whole team for the great hospitality.

ロートホルン鉄道で登ってきたのですが、あまりに寒く展望台まで行けず、レストランに立ち寄りました。ホテル宿泊客と思われる方の朝食時間だったようで、混んでいました。入口左側に少しお土産が売っていたので、ペンを購入しお手洗いを借りました。スタッフさんも親切でした。

Qualität des Essens lässt sehr zu wünschen übrig. Die Speisen bestehen ausschliesslich aus Fertigprodukten und sind schlecht zubereitet. Das Essen schmeckt einfach nur hässlich. Pommes sind in ranzigem Öl zubereitet worden, Gewürze fehlten, Teigwaren waren verkocht und die Speisen sind unnötig fettig. Das beste ist das Apfelmus aus der Dose. Den Chefkoch muss jegliche Kochkunst und Liebe zum Essen verlassen haben.

Das ideale Restaurant auf dieser Höhe. Es wirkt vertraut und bodenständig. Die Speisekarte ist nicht so gross, dafür gut gekocht. Man muss bedenken, dass alles zuerst auf diese Höhe raufgeschafft werden muss. Für jeden Gast (von klein bis gross) gibt es was Leckeres. Der Service ist gut und freundlich. Wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen.

Eine grossartige Aussicht und ein reichhaltiges Frühstück. Mit einer Sonderbahn morgens um 6:00 Uhr zum Rothorn hinauffahren und dann von freundlichem, aufgeschlossenem Personal zum Frühstück empfangen werden hat etwas Unbeschreibliches.

The food was delicious under the full moon and the ride on the steam cog railway was also great.

Bis zur Talfahrt haben wir uns hier eine mittelmässige Pizza mit einem feinen Bier gegönnt. Bei schönem Wetter hat man von hier eine tolle Aussicht. Auffallend war das sehr freundliche und aufgestellte Personal.
