Derbystube - Grindelwald

We walked around Grindelwald for ages trying to find a traditional Swiss restaurant and were amazed at how many “tourist traps” there are serving suv standard food. I eventually googled the type of food we were looking for and found an amazing review for Alpen Macaroni “, so made our way to the restaurant and we weren’t disappointed! The Alpen Macaroni was delicious and freshly made and exactly what we felt like eating on a rather rainy dull October day

The food was dull didn’t felt any spark with the taste. The restaurant was full of flies. And last but not least The waiter was rude: we asked for the bill and shortly after we decided to order a dessert to take away , to which the waiter reacted extremely rude to the point we decided to leave right away. The waiter said only dessert was ice cream to take away but this was bs we saw the menu before with plenty options . Just a lazy and rude employee.

Really tasty food and big portions. There is also separate special fondue menu. Good prices and friendly staff. There are many places to sit, also there is outside seating option.

This restaurant is too obvious… It is in the Derby Hotel in Grindelwald which is right next to the train station… One might easily walk past it as the Eiger north mountain face pulls you into the town. Grindelwald is a must stop for its location and history… In some ways it is the quintessential Swiss Mountain Village… if it has become a town…and busy during the day. But if you have not been there...you must…and if you have…a return helps re-live that first site. You need to eat and you want it to be Swiss… Surprisingly the Derbystube fits perfectly. The restaurant serves Swiss specialties and they are all good…start with fondue. Yes, there are other tourists… But that’s happening throughout the town… It us well designed, the food is excellent, the wait staff are Swiss…and the experience is without disruption. You will probably see the Chef roaming around a bit. This place is highly recommended…It will surprise you…

We enjoyed the ambiance and found a nice variety of options well prepared in a cozy spot on a rainy night. even gluten free was possible)
