Restaurant Crystal

We arrived last night for dinner, but the restaurant has been closed for a while. While the hotel still exist, the restaurant does not. That said, try hotel Oberland directly across the street. They had amazing food and the fondue was fantastic.

Spent the morning at Jungfraujoch and seeing the Swiss Alps, the snow, and being that high up in elevation was just breathtaking. I was very happy to say the least. It was on my husband’s bucket list so I’m glad we got to cross it off. Though, we got famished after just eating chocolates at the Lindt chocolate shop, so when we waited around for Restaurant Crystal to open up around noon. We were one of the first ones seated but I was determined to get my cheese fondue, dammit! :)
We got seated by the window with these amazing views of the alps and was served hot coffee and tea. I got the swiss cheese fondue to share and my daughter got the tortellini that she enjoyed, but she also got to enjoy some of the cheese fondue with us. It was served with baby onions and gherkins. We got bread and potatoes to dip in the fondue. I loved it and was very filling!
They had colored pencils and coloring pages for the kids to stay occupied too, which was a nice touch. Also a reminder that it’s a kid friendly place.
The place is a little pricey but it’s worth it and I can see why seeing how they’re one of the few restaurants up on the mountains. It was worth every penny.

I spent a magical day at the Jungfrau, surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, and my delightful and delicious meal at the Restaurant Crystal added to my enjoyment of this alpine experience. The food is wonderful, the ambience is very relaxing, and the view of the glacier is something you just can’t see just anywhere! As I live in Florida I especially enjoyed the pristine view of the glacier while dining. We both had the apple strudel for desert and it was excellent, I hope I get to return to the Jungfrau one day and when I do I plan on eating here again, both the food and the view are outstanding.

What better place to have a hot cup of soup than atop a massive mountain? And boy was it good, so was the view.
There are about 3? places to eat up on Jungfraugh. There’s an Indian buffett and another place that I don’t really remember. Restaurant Crystal was so open and beautiful and there were actually people eating there. Either the Indian restaurant was closed, or something, it seemed quite deserted. Anyway, we weren’t terribly hungry but wanted to warm up a bit so the boyfriend and I ordered soups. They were SO GOOD. The potato cheese ravioli soup was so creamy and cheesy and had just the right amount of flavor and herby goodness. But there’s only one ravioli, those cheaters. The lobster bisque was also delicious. It was slightly spicy, and a bit creamy too.
You’d think you’d pay out the butt for this kind of view, but the price wasn’t horrible. If I can remember correctly it was between 10 and 15 CHF for each. We did only order soups though, but there’s complimentary bread.
Wir hatten kalt und wir haben essen heiss gewollt. Die Suppe ist mega fine. Wir haben Lobster Bisque und Kartoffel Kase Ravioli Suppe bestellt. Wir hatten kalt kein mehr und wir waren sehr glucklich!
