Known as a world-gourmet village, Lech is celebrated for its high density of award-winning restaurants. Lech boasts a rich variety of culinary experiences, from signature fine dining to more relaxed, family-style cuisine—there’s something for everyone.
On the mountain, it is all about the slope side sunny terraces of Oberlech and welcoming Austrian hospitality. Der Wolf is a great on-the-mountain suggestion, recommended by our Lech resort manager, Alen. This is the perfect mountain pit spot, boasting a stunning sun terrace with superb mountain views, and offering a wide variety of international dishes that also cater to vegan and vegetarian diets.
Schneggarei is an excellent choice for lunch, offering a menu of modern Austrian cuisine alongside delicious wood-fired pizzas. This relaxed family-friendly venue has something to satisfy everyone. Its a popular spot in Lech, so be sure to grab a seat on the terrace for a sun-soaked lunch.
Sitting slope-side the Mohnenfluh prides itself on using local produce and offers a breathtaking backdrop. Another piste side favourite is the Panorama Sun Terrace at the Goldener Berg Hotel, where you can enjoy an incredible lunch with breathtaking views of Lech below.
Indulge your taste buds in Lech’s diverse restaurant scene, where you can enjoy everything from traditional dishes at Hûs Nr. 8 to Euro-Asian fusion delights at Fux. There’s no shortage of options in the village. If you’re seeking a fine dining experience, then the Gastof Post Hotel is not to be missed. For something truly special, consider taking a horse-drawn carriage to Gasthaus Alpele in Zug.
For one of the best culinary hotspots, try Rote Wand, previously the old dairy in Zug. Employing Michelin-starred chefs, this restaurant creates culinary art before your very eyes, predominantly using regional products. Pairing your meal with wines for each course, Rote Wand Chef’s Table offers an unforgettable gourmet experience in this alpine setting. It is recommended to book ahead.
Centrally located in Lech, Hotel Arlberg features two exceptional restaurants. La Fenice serves haute cuisine, blending mountain flavours with Mediterranean influences, all crafted from the finest ingredients. This highly-rated dining venue offers an elegant yet inviting atmosphere and boasts a wine cellar with over 15,000 bottles, including Austrian classics and a variety of French and Italian options. For a more traditional experience, their Austrian alpine restaurant offers gourmet fondues with a modern twist, featuring delicacies like wagyu beef. Stube provides a sophisticated take on classic Austrian cuisine in a cosy setting, but with only 10 tables, booking is strongly recommended.
