Best place to end our snow day!! Comfy, hospitable, and chill. Pretzels are huge, very tasty, warm, and are complimented with charcuterie items. Indoor or outdoor, enjoy it with family, friends, and meet new friends.

Let me begin with the chicken schnitzel sandwich, basically perfect. We got one for the road. The staff was very friendly and responsive, food/drinks came out quickly. I also got the Bavarian chili - a table next to us asked what it was, then proceeded to order it. Love this place after a long day! It’s slightly less busy because it’s just outside the base as well which was really nice.

Great food! Wish they had a place like this near me!. Servers and waiters need more help. They have too many customers to help at once. That made service a little slow, but they were trying to keep up

Great view of the Gondola and surrounding mountains. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The service was great, friendly and fast. The food was good, we tried the Elk bratwurst on a pretzel bun. The flavor was delish. The fries were super yummy and perfectly crisp. We would come back here to try some of the other plates.

Got immediately struck by the beauty of the restaurant that kinda reminded me of my favorite place in my home town. The menu offered a lot of different meals at a really good price and the waiter that served us was extremely nice. Everything we ate was great but The Giant Pretzel really put the cherry on top. Would absolutely come back

Old world look and feel. German infused menu. This restaurant has a big sunny deck, nice interior with ambience and wood carvings all around. You can sit by the fire in a recessed comfortable table. It is in very close walking distance to the gondola. The prices considering you are at a ski resort are not bad at all. I think a burger and fries is 17. The same as anywhere else, and it is seriously good. There is real german beer like Ayinger Brauweisse (or Hefeweizen beer) and a couple of other German beers, and of course American selections. You can even get a number of healthy salads here. Service was very good. I would try the stroganoff. It has an excellent sauce that is unique. It is not switzerland but as close as you can get in California. And right next to the lifts!

As always, really good food in a Swiss style tavern. I wanted the roast beef sandwich but since it's end of their summer season no roast beef so I got the hamburger which I know is delicious. It's a bit pricy, but you only live once.
