Auberge de Sonchaux-Terravet

Very bad experience! Opening date/hours not according to the info on their homepage although we made a reservation! From my perspective ‚until end of October‘ includes also Oct 31 (today)! This is extremely customerunfriendly!!!

The famous Jazz Festival of Montreux has just started and what better place to be as to get out of the city than driving up to this remote auberge, clinging on the mountain side. The food is simple and compared to the prices from below, they are more than fair; you can also sleep there, in a dormitory. The only snag: you must have a car to take you up there otherwise, from the train station of Caux, it will take you about a good 90 minutes uphill alongside of the mountain road.

When you will go to Auberge de Sonchaux, you will never been able to forget the place. Both the roadtrip and the view from the restaurant or the terrasse are spectacular. Of course, if you are lucky with the weather, you can eat outside and this is the place for the ''charbonnade'' - 3 type of meet barbecue. Don't worry, if the weather is not nice, the inside of the restaurant is typical of the mountain, and from the verranda the view is still amazing.

Auberge perchée sur les hauteurs offrant une vue magnifique sur le Léman et les Alpes propose une carte simple. Service expéditif.

Magnifique endroit! Vue panoramique sur le Leman! Si on enlève ça, il ne reste pas grand chose. ...La personne qui prenait les commandes n' était vraiment pas sympa, sèche , à la limite de la malhonnêteté mais par contre elle fait de magnifiques dérapages avec sa jeep devant l établissement....La nourriture est normale, pas mauvais, enfin rien de spécial quoi.Belle place de jeu.Les prix sont abusifs à souhait, on fait payer la vue. ( 51 frs la bourgui 250gr de viande, 27 frs les roestis, 13 frs une Danemark quelconque...)Bref, j'y suis allé, j' y retournerai pas ou avec un sac à dos et picnic. ...
