Restaurant Stadel

About

Restaurant Stadel, located in the heart of Zermatt on Bahnhofstrasse 45, has been a culinary landmark since 1973. Founded by Sepp Julen, the family‑run establishment quickly became the first restaurant in the village to offer warm cuisine in the afternoon, setting the tone for a relaxed yet high‑quality dining experience. The menu celebrates regional Swiss traditions, featuring a celebrated fondue and raclette made with house‑crafted cheeses from the local cheese factory, hearty röstis in a variety of flavors, and specialty meat stews. Guests are treated to a cozy atmosphere that blends rustic décor with modern comforts. The main dining area, once a former goat barn, now hosts welcoming tables surrounded by a wood‑coated wooden ceiling and large windows that frame the picturesque alpine views. Whether sipping a glass of meticulously selected Walliser wine or enjoying a comforting winter terrace meal, diners feel a strong sense of "Swissness" reflected in every bite. The restaurant prides itself on family‑friendly service—take‑out menus and a kids’ menu feature playful options such as mini salads and chicken nuggets, while adults can indulge in larger dishes like a main dish fondue or roasted meats served with classic Swiss sides. With lunchtime warm kitchen available from 14:00 to 22:00 and dinner service until 23:00, Stadel offers flexibility for both casual evenings and special celebrations. Guests who like to explore the local cuisine can also step out onto the winter terrace for a scenic meal paired with casual drinks, or book a table online for a relaxed gathering in the hotspot of Zermatt’s historic Bahnhofstrasse.
