"Food, service and atmosphere were good, close to perfect. I give 3 stars only because, given the quantity and size of pancakes I got, I didn't feel that was reflected in the cost, but then again... If I'm paying 16 CHF for 3 (7 cm diameter) pancakes, I rather have a 3 nice big pancakes (preferably not burned, like the one hidden in the bottom). I mean, praise to the local ingredients consideration, but I was expecting (maybe wrongly) bigger sized, or at least 6 (of the similar size) pancakes to find it a fair deal for the price. By the way, I feel honored to incite such curiosity on my other reviews, but unfortunately you're missing the context. Referring to the McDonald's example, I gave a 5 star to the specific location which has over-expectations pleasant and nice table service, the workers are top notch, and with the food, I know what I'll get, so no surprise there, in the end I'm taking the decision to go inside and get a big coffee, which isn't too shabby, for 4 CHF "

Second time around was better! Pancakes were looking good and tasty! Chai latte is a no-go though unless you like sugary drinks

A brilliant lunch spot on a sunny day, shaded tables right on the lakeside, with a very good value and interesting plat du jour. Loved it. View menu

Petite restauration de qualité avec produits du terroir. En hiver, d'excellents chocolats chauds maison. Un coin est prévu pour les enfants (jeux). Lectures diverses (journaux, livres) à disposition. Programme littéraire pendant l'année avec des invités/écrivains. Au bord du lac, avec terrasse. Serveurs et serveuses très sympas. Pas de musique forte. Que demander mieux?

Excellent walk in meal with my adult family. A superb welcome from owner and a young English speaking guy from behind the bar. Fresh innovative food superbly presented in a great atmosphere. Couldn’t believe we were so lucky. Really reasonably priced unlike our hotel which charge what they fancy as they think they are better than they are. A real gem on the lakeside in Vevey. Well done guys

This is a very pleasant eatery placed facing the lake with the Vevey community library as its neighbor. There is a good choice of vegetarian dishes and a rich brunch menu. The wine and drinks list is extensive and well chosen offering many local products. They feature several evening cultural events per month. The decoration is simple, catering to a young clientele and staff is friendly and efficient. Highly recommended for the not so formal client. View menu

I went here to take coffee and read, cause the view is spectacular! The location is probably one of the best in vevey. The coffee is good, but not the best. But it's a very pleasant place and because of the very good service and super polite ways of the attendant with mustache, I'll come back to eat and bring friends. The decoration is really impressive and the whole combo makes it worth paying a visit and coming again. So, the whole combo of apparently happy and polite staff, the decoration and location makes it a great place!

The food is great and the place is cosy and is very inviting. The major downside are the waitresses that seem to loath every minute of their time spent in the establishment. Not a single Hello, Goodbye, thanks or whatnot. Took the brunch combos and they were pretty good (they say it comes with spinnache in cream sauce but it's in salad not cooked form) but was missing a little salt. When we asked for the bill we had to wait 20min for the waitress to bring it to us then leave straight away without letting us pay for another 15min (I just left the cash on the table as I was fed up waiting longer to pay than to eat).

"Wir kamen zum Mittagessen als eine Gruppe von 7, darunter ein Neugeborenes. Das Personal war hilfsbereit und bot sofort einen Kinderstuhl. Das Restaurant ist nicht leicht zu finden und das Parken ist begrenzt. Die Dekoration ist einfach aber geschmackvoll. Es gibt eine schöne Aussicht auf den Genfer See, leider profitieren die meisten Tische, einschließlich unseres, nicht von der Aussicht.Wir gingen für la carte mit Vorspeise, Haupt-und Dessert (die Auswahl ist begrenzt, 4 von jedem Es gibt auch ein Degustationsmenü, aber es muss gesagt werden, dass die Gerichte sind genau die gleichen von laKarte, die enttäuschend ist. Alle Teller sahen sehr schön aus (siehe Bilder , ich würde das 62 'Ei als Vorspeise und das niedrige Temperatur Morille Rinderfilet als Hauptgericht empfehlen. Die anderen Mahlzeiten waren jedoch nicht das, was wir erwartet hatten und hatten nicht genug Aromen. Es gibt eine große Auswahl an lokalen Weinen, sowohl in der Flasche als auch im Glas, was wir großartig fanden.Der Preis ist ziemlich vernünftig für einen 16-Gault-Millau (CHF 800 für 6 , aber es muss gesagt werden, dass der Service ist nicht annähernd in dieser Rangliste. Wir leiden unter mehreren Anfängerfehlern, einschließlich Wein, der in Wassergläser gegossen wird (bereits mit Wasser gefüllt! . . .Ein weiterer Nachteil ist der langsame Service. Wir haben über 3 Stunden für diese 3 Kurse gebraucht. Dies ist nicht akzeptabel, besonders beim Mittagessen. Außerdem waren die Kellner für diese Art von Restaurant etwas zu ungezwungen. Insgesamt hat dieses Restaurant ein hohes Potenzial, aber besondere Anstrengungen müssen wir in den Service stellen."
