Linde - Reservar uma mesa

…this is the real deal. Switzerland is expensive, no doubt about it, so a gem like this is a real find. Packed with locals, one whole table of which was playing cards and having a grand time, only added to the pleasure of this cozy Swiss tavern serving up local comfort food by the generous plateful (cash only, so hit the ATM before heading in.) The amazing woman (pictured on the website) was a one-woman show serving the entire packed dining room and a private party out back, keeping no one waiting very long, all things considered. The fixed price meal (45SF for two) included delicious soup and a nice salad followed by a huge dish of homemade spaetzle and high-quality homemade veal sausage topped with a generous amount of caramelized onions. The local beer and wine (at just 5 SF for a large mug of beer and 4SF for a glass of wine) were the perfect pairings with this simple, soul warming meal and a great value as well. Gasthaus Linde as it turned out was also great for meeting other travelers. We shared our table with a couple from Germany, who we then ran into several times during our two days in Appenzell (it's that small,) and who were also delighted with the food at Gasthaus Linde, especially with certain offal offerings which they said are increasingly hard to find and prepared especially well at this establishment. Only adding to the charm of our whole Appenzell experience, the morning we were leaving the village we ran into our waitress and hostess extraordinaire walking her dog. She kissed her hand and waved us a kind farewell. Should we be fortunate enough to visit Appenzell again we would make a bee-line to Gasthaus Linde.

Just barely off the large square in town, the zur Linde offers a small outdoor (in good weather) area to eat and drink and a typical Swiss and Appenzell interior. Every Wednesday in the evening around 7 or so, a group of local folks come in and socialize and sing older Appenzeller songs all a capella. Their voices are strong and sweet and it is a wonderful way to get a sense of the area and its hard-working people. The food is, by the way, some of the best Swiss fare you will find anywhere. Chicken with morels? Kalbsbratwurst with rosti? Spaetzli? Send me in, coach!

The Linde is right in the center of Appenzell in a great location. The food is fresh and typical Appenzell fare, just what you would expect on a Swiss mountainside. The cheese fondu is to die for, and they have a great mixed salad. They have a charming garden patio which is delightful. When I vacation in Appenzell, this is my favorite restaurant.

We ate here two nights out of a three night stay, that is how good it is. Good prices compared to other restaurants/hotels. The Rosti with Bratwurst is excellent. The owner is a lovely lady who speaks many languages.

A very typical place for the locals. Outstanding food and service. They went out of their way to please us even during the very busy World Cup days and the gymnastics festival.
