We have stopped here before and this summer we found that it has become even more fabulous (perhaps under new management? . Normally we just stop for a coffee and...a break on our way to the Alps and enjoy the view over the lake. This time on our way home to the UK we had a fabulous lunch. The wonderful waitress explained the menu in great detail and with obvious passion (what a gem she is! and helped us to make our choices. The home made chips are the best ever!

There are lots of comfy chairs and low tables as well as normal...tables so there is something for everyone. Service was incredibly friendly and they gave the impression it was a pleasure to have our custom. We decided to have ice cream/sorbet and I can highly recommend the apricot and fleur de lait flavours. Prices were very reasonable. We'll definitely go there again when we're passing. (Since writing this I've only just returned home and haven't had time to post so in the meantime we tried the one next door and can definitely say that the service is way more friendly here! The menu is more limited but if it's a a light meal or drink you're after then there is no doubt which we'd prefer!
