Vordergeissboden in Zug

Very friendly, very good fondue.

Very fine fondue and super fine Holdrio! Service was great!

Since the service was rather unfriendly and grumpy, after ordering drinks we decided not to eat there and went to another restaurant in town for lunch.

Very friendly hosts, I felt that when I made my reservation by phone. Yesterday, when I was in the restaurant with my daughters and dog Chicco for a very nice dinner, I also experienced great friendliness and hospitality. The food was more than excellent 👍👍👍 The prices are a bit high, but it's worth a visit. You would regret missing out on such fine cuisine and friendly people 👍👍👍😉

If the restaurant is busy, you need a lot of patience! Or am I wrong and a wait of over an hour for a simple salad with cheesecake is ok??? In the restaurant you can see up close how the chef turns in the red zone and shouts at his staff. A very “special” guest experience. You feel really comfortable. A pity! In short, I recommend taking food from your backpack for your next visit to the Zugerberg.

The food was excellent and the service was quick, personal and extremely pleasant. We also felt very comfortable with the furnishings. Everything including the toilet is absolutely clean. However, the food is relatively expensive. But overall, highly recommended!

The top point: This Alpe is also open on Monday! Every day! Food cannot be assessed. Nice shaded seating area for people who just want a drink. Be sure to reserve!

Had beef stroganoff. It was very good and textbook-like. The one star deduction refers to the table being cleared late. The service is special, but works.

Nothing more can be said about it.

We were there on a weekend about 3 weeks ago when the wrestling festival took place on the Zugerberg. Apparently the owners of this restaurant have changed?! The waitress (an older, petite woman) behaved very snippy towards us and you could tell that she had NO FUN AT ALL! We first ordered 1 portion of French fries as well as a cappuccino and 2 nut croissants, which we reserved when we arrived because we know that they will go away quickly because the croissants are simply very good. When we were ready with the coffee, we had to wait an extremely long time and then we only received 1 nut croissant. When we asked kindly about the second nut peak, the waitress told us coldly that she had eaten the other one herself and that the rest had been frozen again because there was little demand. That was very, very bad!!! WE WERE DEFINITELY THE LAST TIME THERE!!!! (It was our favorite restaurant after hiking... unfortunately now over!)

Good location for food and short stay. Oversized meat platter...excellent Swiss specialities...in a bit crowded place even during the week

Friendly is definitely different. We only had something to drink and our request for the dessert menu was intentionally ignored. The entire terrace was cleared away during our stay...1 hour before the end of the day. Down the street a family walked past with a screaming child. The waitress said audibly to herself: Don't come up here. We were definitely here for the last time!

Extremely unfriendly staff. You don't feel welcome. We were happy when we got out again.

It would be a great pub if a little more attention was paid to hospitality.

Food was okay but the service was extremely unfriendly. You felt very unwelcome. Never again

Ambiance is very nice! Unfortunately the service is extremely unfriendly. Price are very high!

We ordered a portion of Älplermagronen at 24.50 for a meal for two. It then cost 40.50 🤔 a whopping 16.-- for a second set of cutlery and plates. Happily This without warning! Cooked it was fresh and excellent

Extremely unfriendly service. 31.- francs for two water and two ice cream! definitely won't come again

Typical Swiss house in the middle of fields and forests on the Zugerberg mountain. Typical Swiss food acceptable. Very slow service. I recommend access with the funicular from Zug although you can go by car. I recommend walks through the bucolic surroundings of the restaurant. Ideal for families. The restaurant has an outdoor area with games for children

Worst service ever, unfriendly, demotivated. A pure disaster!!!

Service was a bit slow with a group not all getting drinks. Maybe it's because we're currently getting staff

The food was ok, but the amount of more than 24.- is too much for normal Älplermagronen, especially since the staff had little desire to work in a friendly manner. It also doesn't make much sense to complain about the stroller in the kitchen instead of asking us to leave it outside (we were the only guests at the beginning). After the “experience” we won’t be coming back here again

Very unfriendly staff and, despite the fact that there is a small playground for the children, they are anything but child-friendly. The service leaves much to be desired. NOT RECOMMENDED. There is nothing to say about the food itself (Älplermagronen). Tasty and more than enough.

Never left such negative feedback, but looks like something should always be first time. I tried to make an order 3 times! On 3rd time went into counter and clearly ask 2 beer and portion of pomes. Finally been heard. I stayed there around another 5 minutes. Politely asked: please give me 2 large beer and the pomes. Lady fill pints then grab them and ran away from the counter to bring them the place we set. There, I asked again for pomes. Then we finished beer. Pomes arrived, but not for us. For the couple who ordered after us. We repeated again about where is our pomes and went to counter to pay for the beer and left the place. 30 minutes we sit and wait for portion of pomes. Terrible service. Never comeback.

Very unfriendly staff. Everything was very dirty, our reserved table was dirty, the floor left something to think about. The rest of the place was very unkempt. The food was okay

Absolutely unfriendly staff! We are very disappointed with the terrible staff! Otherwise the food would be delicious.

See you later, I'll take care, Greetings Anny

The food was very good and everything happened very quickly. We were a larger group and we were very satisfied!!!

Drinking a café was really good and the service was really good too.

very overwhelmed and unfriendly staff. Soooo sad

Lovely restaurant on the Zugerberg, attentive and friendly service. Very good cheese quiche, excellent chocolate dessert. We'll be back

Amazing discovery. The menu is really great. Enjoyed several traditional, very tasteful and well looking meals.

We pretty much got one of everything and it was all exceptional. Gorgeous atmosphere. Who doesn't want to eat on top of a mountain?

Very friendly and good service, fine fondue (good portion), varied & fresh mixed salad, great food and wine list, terrace is beautifully decorated with lights. Highly recommended, especially on a winter evening with a walk in the snow :-)

The food was ok. Fries with nuggets, of sufficient size, fit on a tea saucer. I pointed out to the boss that I didn't think that was ok and that, as a comparison, the restaurant nearby had three times as much on the plate and was cheaper. Then he got angry and talked about high-quality nuggets. The reason is still not justified. And I don't need the boss to beat me up like that. Now I know why the other restaurant is completely true and not this one.

Very uncoordinated handling of food consumption. When the sun was shining, only fondue or raclette was served on the terrace. There wasn't even anything else for the children... And unfortunately the service was extremely unfriendly and absolutely not customer-oriented! It seems as if you don't have to rely on guests. We're never coming back.

Restaurant overloaded ..not a good minik .. serving daughter and the chef overwhelmed. Guests run away because the serving daughter didn't know how to deal with the guests. We're sorry but I can't miss you any further. I spoke to the waiter's daughter, it's entirely up to the cook (the landlord) I've seen enough as a restaurant tester. (The restaurant should urgently be remodeled from the kitchen to the toilet. Or rather, the restaurant should be closed forever. To the serving girl: You can't do anything about it because your boss is ridiculously outlawing it. Will forward this. I was brutally disappointed. It's a shame about the trip to Zugerberg.

A really nice place with nice service and good food. /familly from Sweden

Unfortunately, I wasn't served even after 15 minutes when the seats were moderately occupied. The plates from the previous person were still standing around. Map is not extensive and expensive. Not really anymore, sorry.

Very nice and comfortably furnished restaurant with very tasty food. The service was friendly and competent. We will be back

Very cozy, small, fine menu and nice staff

In contrast to the quite varied menu, you have no choice when it comes to wine! There is only one Chilean (!) red wine by the glass. (of mediocre quality, 5dl for a rather immodest Fr. 35.-) Normally we generally don't consume wines from overseas. As a host, I would also avoid imported mineral water. However, the food more than met our expectations. Pair 73/69

Super delicious food, you just have to wait a little long

Very unfriendly service. You don't feel welcome as a guest. When asked whether it was possible to order a senior portion, the answer was: You can ask for a smaller portion, but you have to pay the full price! After waiting hungry for over an hour and politely asking how long it would take until the food came, the answer was: It would come when it was ready... We skipped dessert because of this unfriendly, bad-tempered blonde, curly-haired waitress. We definitely won't come back and won't recommend the restaurant!

The service was stressed and ignored us for 15 minutes. We then left, so I can't say anything about the food.

Nice and quick service - the mushroom risotto was a poem - really creamy and with lots of cheese - the lukewarm chocolate cake as dessert - the highlight at the end! We would be happy to come back 👍

Beautiful garden terrace. Great and nice service. Very fine food!

Unfriendly, you didn't feel welcome at all. We only had dessert, unfortunately not a highlight. Seldom eaten such bad coups. The playground would be better cleared away, it's pretty old and partly broken. It was definitely the first and last time

The chocolate cake is to die for!

We were spoiled with very tasty food and friendly, hospitable service. We'll definitely come back. It's great when you're still cooking properly.

Very well eaten! Friendly and prompt service! The "little" innkeeper and host personally inquired about our well-being. We'll be back, thank you!

Employees are constantly stressed but the kitchen is good!

Rustic homely pub. Doesn't have that many tables. Staff very nice and friendly. We only ate dessert. Was delicious.

Unfortunately not recommended at all, despite the great location and wonderful view. Why: In this company there is a very dismissive attitude towards the guests. The menu is dated and the quality of the food is mediocre at best. From the very first moment we felt like supplicants and not as welcome guests. The waitress was reluctant to serve us. When we then had 1-2 completely normal requests/questions, we were downright insulted, which even shocked other guests in the dining room. Meanwhile, the operator/owner sat relaxed at the next table with his always full white wine glass and commented on the incident as follows: “You should work up here for a day. They wouldn’t last an hour.” We and the other guests were just speechless. Our beautiful day of hiking so far was completely ruined and we just wanted to get away from here. When leaving the restaurant, two people from our group slipped and fell dangerously on the icy outside stairs (because there was no gravel/sand/salt). Luckily no one was injured. conclusion: We recommend that the obviously frustrated operator/owner, including employees, give up the business and hand it over to a young, motivated and, above all, trained catering team who know how to value their guests and appreciate the location. Meanwhile, we recommend that all other guests avoid this place.

Went for dinner on January 1st. Very pleasant atmosphere. Courteous and very friendly service. The food was very good and the prices were reasonable. It was a really great experience, THANK YOU

Way overpriced and low quality food. BLASENBERG is way better.

Very fine cuisine and a very nice atmosphere.

Very friendly professional staff. Good price-performance ratio and very good cuisine. Thank you for your tireless efforts.

Was here some time ago outside and it was sort of OK but very slow service. Last weekend was however different. The service and the owner were totally unfriendly. The drinks came, we consumed and left. Not a nice experience at all unfortunately. Hope it was a bad day and that thing will improve

Nice location, courteous staff and good food at fair prices.

Dear Grüessli, the risotto is great 👍🤠

One star is already too many. No more. Waited 1 hour and still haven't had any fries. We are with children. Children cry. Bad...poor children now only eat bread.

Good cuisine and fine nut croissants!

friendly and competent. wonderful nut peaks

Very friendly service and super delicious nut croissants 😁

Always a short hike and a good dessert

Name fits very well. Stuck on the ice. Bauer had to save us. Ehrenman. Restaurant was closed, jebotem. 5 stars for Bauer. Vallah.

Das Essen und die Bedienung waren ok. Der Wirt/Koch trug aber nicht unbedingt zur guten Stimmung bei (schnauzte die Angestellten laut an oder ärgerte sich lauthals über Bestellungs-Änderungen). So geht das nicht. Das Lokal wäre zwar heimelig, aber zu Corona-Zeiten zu eng.

Covid19 doesn't make things easy for anyone, but being unfriendly doesn't help either.

We, the Weber family from Einsiedeln, enjoyed hiking near the Vordergeissboden restaurant. With tired legs we returned to the pretty house called “Vordergeissboden” That was a great, good decision....Tasteful location with a large garden, good cuisine and good service. We felt completely satisfied and we will definitely visit the "Vordergeissboden" again soon. This inviting restaurant is warmly recommended.

Been there a few times in a short period of time. What came to the table was always good or even very good. What I miss there is leadership of the service staff. You are hardly greeted, the best tables are supposedly always reserved, even if they remain empty until you leave. The service staff would rather go smoke than sell a second round, and a boss who just looks grim and can't open his mouth when he strays out of the kitchen. So my needs are covered for the near future. It's a shame it's so far from the cable car station. Otherwise it could be used as a waiting room!

Dieses Restaurant habe ich in bester Erinnerung aus meiner Jugend, als ich die Schule auf dem Zugerberg besucht hab. Auch die Male danach, als ich dort war, war immer alles top.So etwas unfreundliches, unflexibels und so nicht leckeres Essen hab ich schon lange nicht mehr in der Schweiz erlebt. Null Corona konform sie nehmen nicht mal die Kontaktdaten auf. Völlig desinteressiertes Personal.Sehr sehr traurig um diese hübsche Stube die ich mal in so guter Erinnerung hatte.

The food was good, but the service was unfriendly and as if the guests were not welcome. A pity!

Kaum je einen schlechteren Service gesehen in einem Restaurant: unglaublich lange Wartezeiten, unfreundliche Bedienung, alle Kunden sind entweder auf essen am warten oder zum zahlen. Wenn ich für das Restaurant verantwortlich wäre würde ich mir schwer Gedanken machen wie die Situation sofort zu lösen ist. In diesem Zustand ist dieses restaurant absolut nicht zu empfehlen und eine Zumutung für alle.

Wenn sie für die platzzuweisung, bestellung und bezahlung sehr lange warten möchten, sind sie in diesem restaurant goldrichtig. Schade für die schöne location.

Wir wollten eben hier etwas drinken. Dafür haben wir an der rezeption gefragt ob wir uns im Innenraum setzten können. Es war genug Platz drinnen. Trotzdem wurden wir von dem überforderten service nur angefaucht, dass wir gefälligst warten sollen und was uns denn einfällt, dass andere auch warten würden. Das finde ich ein no go! Sorry aber nicht zu empfehlen

The cheese fondue here is unsurpassed. Simply perfect. Food is solid and plentiful and tasty as good old Swiss cuisine at its best. Great wines and spirits too.

Posto incantevole cucina saporita ed molto accogliente

ich weiss nicht was geschehen ist. schon zum 2ten mal qualitativ schlechtes essen und sehr unhöfliches / genervtes personal

(Traducido por Google) Increíble Rehrücken. El servicio fue excelente y Peter es un cocinero increíble. Se lo recomendaría a cualquiera. (Original) Amazing Rehrücken. Service was excellent and Peter is an amazing cook. Would recommend to anybody.

(Traducido por Google) Maravillosos croissants caseros de nueces por la mañana y macarons alpinos súper sabrosos a la hora del almuerzo, ¡gracias! Llegar de nuevo (Original) Wunderbarer selbstgemachter Nussgipfel am Morgen und super leckere Älplermakaronen am Mittag, danke! Kommen wieder

Vom ersten Augenblick an waren wir nicht willkommen, wir hätten sofort umkehren sollen. Mein Salat war absolut lieblos hingeklatscht, die Suppe vor allem mit Aromat gewürzt. Immerhin keine überteuerten Preise, aber eben-mangelhaft.

(Traducido por Google) Desde nuestro punto de vista, se recomienda un desvío allí, ¡el servicio siempre es extremadamente duro y siempre cortés! Encuentro la posada adecuada para todas las ocasiones, ya sea con colegas, amigos o familiares; Me hubiera encantado probarlo porque tenía hambre, pero entonces no habría habido espacio para la comida única. (Original) Aus unserer Sicht ist ein Abstecher dort rundweg empfehlenswert.Die Bedienung ist immerzu überaus bemüht und stets zuvorkommend!Ich finde das Gasthaus passend für alle Anlässen unwichtig ob mit Kollege, Bekannten oder Sippe ; ).Ich hätte mich am allerliebsten vor Hunger erst mal durchprobiert, aber dann wäre kein Platz für das einzigartige Essen mehr gewesen.

(Traducido por Google) Hay mejor, pero también peor. El servicio se abruma fácilmente y no es muy amable. La comida estaba bien (¿sabe bien, pero macarrones alpinos con penne?) Lo que no funcionó en absoluto: Los cubiertos se tocaron con los dedos en las partes, que luego tuvieron que entrar en nuestra boca. No vayas (Original) Gibt Besseres, aber auch Schlechteres. Service leicht überfordert und nicht sehr freundlich. Essen war in Ordnung (Geschmack okay, aber Älplermacronen mit Penne?!) Was gar nicht ging: Das Besteck wurde mit den Fingern an den Teilen angefasst, welche dann in unsere Münder mussten. No-Go

(Traducido por Google) Cogimos el Zugerberg Bahn y nos detuvimos allí. Gente agradable y comimos una gran fondue de queso. Realmente delicioso ... definitivamente volveremos pronto (Original) Sind mit der Zugerberg Bahn hochgefahren, und sind dort eingekehrt.. Nette Leute und ein super Käsefondue gegessen. Echt lecker... Kommen bestimmt bald wieder

Herziges Restaurant. Wir hatten ein sehr gutes Fondue und ein feines Dessert. Gute Lage, Nähe Spazierwege, Bahn und Parkplätze. Hohes Gästeaufkommen, Personal etwas überfordert.

Cibo ottimo, servizio gentile, ambiente caratteristico. Ci è piaciuto molto! Torneremo sicuramente presto

(Traducido por Google) ¡La posada es muy fácil de alcanzar! Las conexiones de transporte favorables hacen que una visita sea factible. El personal trabajó directo, limpio y agradable. Encuentro la selección variada y hasta ahora todo sabía 100% excelente lo que me sirvieron frente a mí. No he estado en mucho tiempo impresionado por un restaurante. (Original) Das Gasthaus ist super einfach zu erreichen! Die günstige Verkehrsanbindung macht einen Besuch fix machbar.Das Personal hat geradlinig, reinlich und nett gearbeitet.Die Auslese finde ich breit gefächert und bis jetzt hat alles hundertprozentig großartig geschmeckt, was ich meinerseits vor mir serviert bekommen habe.Ich war schon lange nicht mehr so beeindruckt von einem Lokal.

(Traducido por Google) Buena comida buena vista (Original) Gutes Essen schöne Aussicht

(Traducido por Google) Los asientos se limpiaron inmaculadamente y las sillas eran extremadamente cómodas. Ciertamente, no solo el atento personal local fue el éxito de ventas absoluto cuando visitamos, sino también el ambiente único. ¡La comida no fue lo único que sorprende en esta posada! Por supuesto, me gusta probar nuevos lugares profundamente y constantemente estoy buscando nuevos lugares, pero seguiré dedicado a este lugar. Estamos absolutamente gratamente sorprendidos. Ambos definitivamente volveremos. (Original) Die Sitzplätze wurden makellos gereinigt und die Stühle waren zutiefst bequem.Bestimmt nicht nur das aufmerksame Lokal Personal war bei unserem Besuch der absolute Bestseller, sondern ebenfalls das einzigartige Ambiente.Das Essen war nicht das Einzige, welches in diesem Wirtshaus für Staunen sorgt! Ich probiere natürlich zutiefst gerne neue Lokale aus und bin fortlaufend auf der Ermittlung nach neuen Lokalen, aber diesem Lokal werde ich ergeben bleiben.Wir sind absolut positiv überrascht. Wir beide werden auf jeden Fall zurückkommen.

(Traducido por Google) Muy bueno, restaurante barato. Buen servicio Solo puedo recomendarlo. (Original) Sehr gutes, preiswertes Restaurant. Nette Bedienung. Nur zu empfehlen.

(Traducido por Google) La comida estuvo genial. Servicio abrumado. No es posible el pago con tarjeta. Cafetera def. Rogando miserablemente para obtener una factura. (Original) Essen war super. Service überfordert. Kartenzahlung nicht mäglich. Kaffeemaschine def. Missten betteln um eine Rechnung zu bekommen.

(Traducido por Google) Servicio muy amable Volveremos Solo se puede recomendar. (Original) Sehr freundliche Bedienung. Wir kommen wieder. Ist nur zu empfehlen.

We visited the Zugerberg, the Mountain above the City of Zug and wanted to have lunch. We found this place. The menu card was surprisingly big. My wife ordered a soup which was tasty and big enough, I ordered the classical Schnitzel with French Fries. Both was tasty and delicious and the service was friendly and efficient.

Gutes Essen zu fairen Preisen, schöne Ausflugslage. Freundliches Personal dass sein möglichstes tut besonders beim Ansturm an Sonntagen. Freundlicher und unkomplizierter Umgang mit erzogenen Kindern und Hunden. Schöner Kinderspielplatz mit angrenzender Sonnenterasse. Wir verkehren seit Jahren im Vordergeissboden und haben nie schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht.

(Traducido por Google) Operación fuera totalmente abrumado! Escapar en voz alta de los invitados! Difunde muy mal humor. Imposible! (Original) Bedienung draussen total überfordert! Flucht laut vor den Gästen! Verbreitet sehr schlechte Stimmung. Unmöglich!

(Traducido por Google) Quería celebrar un cumpleaños allí con veinte personas. Fueron expulsados ​​del pub personalmente antes de la medianoche, en contra de todos los acuerdos anteriores. Tuve que celebrar el cumpleaños en otro lugar. La comida (fondue de queso) estaba bien. Sin embargo, la relación precio / rendimiento no es correcta. (Original) Wollten mit zwanzig Leute dort eigentlich in einen Geburtstag hineinfeiern. Wurden vom Wirt persönlich , entgegen aller vorheriger Absprachen , noch vor 24:00 Uhr aus dem Lokal geworfen. Mussten den Geburtstag dann woanders feiern. Das Essen (Käsefondue) war in Ordnung. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt jedoch nicht.

Ich möchte gerne noch was zum Eintrag 15.12.19 sagen. Das Restaurant Vordergeissboden auf den Zugerberg hat Sonntags bis 19.00 geöffnet. Finde es nett, wenn man den Gästen entgegen kommt und länger geöffnet hat. Heute ist das aber alles selbstverständlich. Das man 7 Tage die Woche von Früh bis Spät arbeitet. Irgendwann wird das alles nicht mehr sein ( Fachkräftemangel). Vielleicht sollte man den Job im Dienstleistungsgeschäft schätzen und nicht nur verlangen. Ich hoffe man denkt man darüber nach.

man sollte immer bei der wahrheit bleiben! alles was sie hier geschrieben haben ist GELOGEN und das weis ich weil ich an dem besagten abend auch anwesend wahr! ausser dem nacht essen wahr gar nichts so abgemacht, was sie oben erwähnt hatten. schon gar nicht dass nur 18 personen statt 40 gekommen sind. eine frechheit dass SIE sich getrauen so ein müll auf dieser seite zu verbreiten, solche gäste wie sie es wahren braucht kein wirt! schade dass viele leute trip advisor missbrauchen für unangemessene kritik wen sie es wissend für lügen benutzen. dass aller schlimmste finde ich wenn man dann noch nicht mal eier hat und das ganze noch anonüm schreiben muss!!! ich weiss aus langer erfahrung wenn man sich anständig benimmt hat man im vorder geissboden einen unvergesslichen abend und wird wie ein könig behandelt...mfg f.lerchmüller

Wir waren dort mit einer Gesellschaft zum Käse-Fondue-Essen.Das Fondue war wirklich sehr gut und die Feier sollte der Abschluß der Feier sein.Es war so ausgemacht, ds das ganze dann nach Mitternacht enden sollte, um mit dem Geburtstagskind anzustoßen.Um 24:45 hat uns der Wirt dann mit sehr unfreundlichen Worten vor die Tür gesetzt. Die Art und Weise war unterirdisch. So ein "Wirt" ist hier fehlplaziert; empfehlenswert für seine Person wäre eher ein Fließband in der Fabrik oder ein Arbeitsplatz wo er nicht sichtbar ist!!!
