Refuge l' Espace - Schönried

This a great place, well worth the walk from the cable car. It is decorated really nicely and has a terrace with some of the best views you'll find in a restaurant anywhere. We stopped for a drink and a piece of cake and really enjoyed taking in the views below.

At the end of an easy 40 minutes long glacier walk, this super cute little restaurant rewards with stunning views and great mountain comfort food. Their bündber barley soup is hot and well seasoned, a rarity in many Swiss restaurants, and the tarte tatin is baked to perfection on a super thin base layer and then served exactly as it should be. As the place is tiny inside, it is likely that one will have to sit outside where it can get quite windy so these foods are absolutely perfect warm-me-ups. It is worth checking beforehand if they are open as it is weather dependent, the lovely owner was quick to respond to reassure that they will indeed be open.

This place is a must if you are on the glacier. The views are incredible and the food is good BUT remember it is CASH ONLY! It is a small place with only a few waiting staff so at busy times the service can be very slow. Its still worth the trek over the glacier though.

We ski a lot in Villars and when the weather is right head to the Glacier..this restarant/bar is a must visit place ... very friendly,great food and service plus the best views...you cannot book so i recommend an early lunch/beer/Vin chaud etc!

Small refuge situated on the Glacier 3000 above Les Diablerets. Can be reached by ski as well as by foot from the cable car station at the summit.
