- Homemade Spätzli as a specialty of the house: classic, with cheese, mushrooms, or seasonal ingredients
- Poultry from the large grill: for example, on fixed weekends in summer
- Seasonal specialties: asparagus dishes in spring, Metzgete and game dishes in autumn
- Social events: Stubeten, music evenings, an Oktoberfest, and cozy Sunday lunches
- Offers for excursionists: simple lunch dishes, coffee and cake, and a Zvieriplättli after a hike
- Offers in winter: warm dishes and drinks for cross-country skiers and snowshoers
- Celebrations and groups: family celebrations, club events, and company dinners in the restaurant or in the flexibly usable hall
- Travel groups: pre-bookable coffee breaks, lunch, or Zvieri offers
A manageable, seasonal menu could be the basis. The mentioned offers are initial ideas for a possible business concept that the future tenant can develop according to their own ideas.
