5 fondue and raclette hotspots in the Winterthur region
The cheese melts here: whether high above the rooftops, in a warm yurt or in a rustic chalet - the Winterthur region invites you to enjoy cozy moments of pleasure. Enjoy these six special fondue and raclette hotspots during the cooler months of the year.
Fondue in the yurt at the Turm Areal Pop Up Brrr... Edition
The two cozy fondue yurts right next to the Roter Turm are the perfect place to warm up. Whether truffles, smoked mozzarella from Kemptthal or vegan New Roots fondue - fondue fans are in for a treat here. The experience is complemented by creative drinks such as the Gingerbread Amaretto Sour or the Grapefruit Saffron Gin Tonic. Seats can be booked online until January 4, 2026.
Say Cheese Raclette Popup in the vinotheque of the Zuber winery in Rudolfingen
From December 3 to 5 and December 10 to 12, 2025, the Vinothek will be transformed into a cozy raclette pop-up in Zurich's wine country. You can taste our own wines while choosing between two menus with raclette cheese from Wyland Chäsi. Perfect for those who like things small, fine and relaxed - because there are only around 20 seats. It's best to book a table now.
Fondue in the fire cellar of the Landgasthof Gyrenbad above Turbenthal
At the foot of the Schauenberg, the seasonally decorated fire cellar of the historic Gasthof Gyrenbad is particularly cozy - including an open fireplace. The Gyrenbad cheese fondue is served with "Huusbrot"; starters, side dishes and a dessert can be added individually. The fondue party can be booked for two or more people.
Fondue and raclette in the SILO Rooftop Pleasure Lounge at THE VALLEY Kemptthal
In the middle of the dynamic THE VALLEY area, right next to Kemptthal train station, the SILO Rooftop Bar is transformed into a cozy pleasure lounge from November to March. Every Thursday there is fondue and raclette with AOC cheese from the Fribourg region, made according to a 40-year-old family recipe - under the stars. Reservations are recommended.
Fondue variations and raclette fun in the Wintialp near the city park
From November 8, 2025 to January 31, 2026, a piece of the mountain world will shine in the middle of the city. The elegantly rustic chalet with Platzhirschbar invites you to enjoy convivial evenings by the crackling fire. 15 fondue variations - from whisky and prosecco to saffron - will delight cheese lovers, as will the raclette with chili mango or smoked cheese. Tables can be reserved online.
