Gotthard-Mätteli : Gotthard-Mätteli, 6493 Hospental

If you feel adventurous and prefer to take the Gotthard pass instead of the tunnel, I definitely recommend you to stop by for a quick bite or coffee before heading up or down the mountain. With a large parking and both indoor and outdoor space, this typical Swiss-alp cafe is a good spot to relax and quickly get a break. Good coffee, a few traditional dishes also on the menu, like their local savory pie.

We had two types of pies, one with plum and one with apples. It was so delicious! One of the best pies I’ve ever tried! Definitely recommend it!
