I went to this place atleast 5 times during my stay in Lausanne because the location is amazing and so is the food and drinks. Diana works at the front and she is beyond friendly and accommodating. The burger and fries are also a 10/10
Brunching by the lake is a great idea. It gets even better when your food is as naughty as it can get. A delicious surprise. Bonus to the friendly, and smiling young staff. A great idea for a sunny Sunday.
Recommend to reserve before coming.
I always enjoy spending time at The Lacustre. The views of the lake are incredible, there is a great ambiance and a wide range of food and beverages.
On Friday I hosted an event with 14 friends. I had made a booking and arrived to find the table in a back area. As I came early evening, the tables were not all full. I asked to swap tables. Thankfully, Diana (manager) was there and she helped to give the green light to change tables. It made all the difference to the evening. The service was great and the ambiance too.
At the end of the evening I noticed an error on the bill. As we had given part of our seating area to a couple their bill was integrated into mine. Fortunately, I caught it when they were still there. I informed Diana and she helped to resolve the error swiftly and reimbursed me. I am grateful for the no fuss attitude and professionalism.
The food was great - all ages, including kids, appreciated the variety and quality. A shout out to the kitchen team!
Many thanks for making this another memorable evening.
The Lacustre is an obvious choice if you are roaming the waterfront in Lausanne and looking for an easy lunch option. There is a lot of outdoor seating, with a wraparound patio. When I visited I was able to get a seat with a partial lake-view.
I ordered the lobster roll and it was pretty good. Just having visited Halifax, Canada and enjoyed several lobster rolls it certainly had some competition. I will say the bun itself was amazing. So delicious. The roll has some cole slaw which I didn't personally care for. The lobster aspect was good. Comes with a little side salad that was also nice.
At least for lunch - not sure about dinner - you order inside at a bar and provide your table number. So in that regards its a bit casual. No complaints.
