Schäferstube
A wood-cabin style dinner restaurant at Hotel Julen, known for fire-roasted Zermatt lamb and raclette.
A family restaurant run by Hotel Julen in the village centre, with exposed beams and warm lighting that create a cosy chalet atmosphere. The signature dish is fire-roasted Zermatt lamb, sourced from the Julen family's own farm. Raclette, cheese fondue and meat fondue are also served, and the official website recommends starting with raclette as a first course. Dinner only, with two seatings (one from 18:00/18:30 to 20:30, and one from 20:45), and à la carte ordering only. Seating is limited, so book several days ahead. Prices are roughly CHF 30-55 per person. Not suitable for guests with coeliac disease.
