Its position surrounded by vineyards on an idyllic sun-terrace offering wonderful views of Graubünden make it well worth a visit. Apart from a range of special wines (straw wine, glasses of sweet wine) a variety of local snacks such as the "Torkel" platter, Alpine cheese or "Tschunken" (special air-dried ham) are available. There is enough room for approximately 80 people indoors and 40 outside on the terrace. An ideal location for celebrations in a cozy atmosphere!
Opening hours:
Jan. - Sept. 10:30 a.m. - 12 p.m. (Closed Tuesdays). From October 7 onward, open every day.
