Autumn at Guggital
A Season to Savour
As the days grow shorter and the landscape around Lake Zug takes on its autumn colours, the flavours on our plates become warmer and more aromatic too. Our autumn menu combines seasonal ingredients with popular Guggital classics, fine game dishes and the occasional surprising creation.
Whether for lunch, a cosy evening meal or simply a delicious dessert in between – we look forward to sharing a wonderful autumn season with you.
Our Autumn Drink
Autumn gets its very own drink at Guggital: Guggital Passion – fruity, fresh and aromatic.
Homemade passion fruit purée meets a touch of rum, Prosecco, fresh lime and mint. For those who prefer to enjoy it without alcohol, our Guggital Passion Zero.Zero combines all the fruity freshness with alcohol-free rum and Prosecco.
A little passion for autumn – in a glass.
Autumn Starters
Pumpkin is, of course, a must at this time of year. Our creamy pumpkin and ginger soup is available either vegan or served with a red prawn from Mazara and toasted sesame.
There is also lamb’s lettuce with crispy bacon, egg and croûtons, a Styrian version with pumpkin seed dressing and toasted pumpkin seeds, as well as marinated pumpkin carpaccio with red endive, pomegranate and delicate almond cream.
For something a little different, discover our porcini dumplings with kombu consommé or cuttlefish alla Puttanesca.
The Flavours of Autumn
Our main courses show autumn from its most delicious side. Miso-marinated Black Cod with rice, kimchi and pak choi meets a duo of beef and veal fillets with port wine sauce and Pommes Berny.
For a vegetarian treat, try our autumn pear risotto with Taleggio, roasted endive and caramelised walnuts. And if you love all the traditional accompaniments of a game dish but prefer to skip the game itself, our colourful “All the Trimmings – Without the Game” plate brings together red cabbage, chestnuts, chanterelles and many more autumn favourites.
Game Season at Guggital
Game season is an essential part of autumn at Guggital. Venison escalope with creamy game sauce, sliced venison with creamy chanterelle sauce, bacon-wrapped deer fillet or our classic hunter-style venison stew bring the flavours of the season to the table.
For two or more guests, there is our Guggital game classic: saddle of venison with two sauces and a generous selection of traditional accompaniments.
Guggital Shokado Bento
Our Shokado Bento joins us for autumn too. Several small creations are carefully arranged in individual dishes and served together on our wooden trays.
Tuna tataki, miso-marinated Black Cod, cuttlefish alla Puttanesca and other little delicacies make the Bento a varied experience for anyone who enjoys discovering different flavours.
Sweet Autumn Moments
Autumn has arrived on our dessert menu too: vegan cheesecake with gingerbread spices, apple and rum raisins, or Satha’s yoghurt mousse with a creamy yoghurt centre in a white chocolate velours, accompanied by dill meringues, green apple and apple sorbet.
There are also autumn dessert minis, Vermicelles, Coupe Nesselrode and, of course, our homemade ice creams and sorbets, as well as our popular Zuger Kirsch Ice Cream Cake.
If choosing is simply too difficult, pick three Dessert Minis as a Trio – and when there is only room for one little sweet treat, they are naturally available as a Single too.
Afternoons at Guggital
Between 1.30 pm and 5.30 pm, Guggital is also a lovely place to take a little time out.
Enjoy a slice of Zuger Kirschtorte, an ice cream coupe, homemade ice cream, an iced coffee or something savoury from our afternoon menu – perhaps accompanied by a leisurely chat and a beautiful view over Zug.
And Then Christmas Slowly Draws Near …
From 17 November 2026, our menu takes on a festive touch as the Advent season arrives at Guggital.
If you are already planning a Christmas party, company dinner or festive occasion with family and friends, it is well worth thinking ahead: our Christmas Menu Suggestions, with festive menus, buffets and special ideas for both smaller and larger groups, are already available for you to discover.
For the Advent season in particular, we recommend booking early – the most popular evenings in December tend to fill up quickly.

Homemade Desserts aus Tradition
The love of sweet delicacies in the Guggital began with senior chef Franz Elsener, a trained confectioner who laid the foundations for our exquisite dessert culture.
Even today, our dessert menu features traditional desserts based on his original recipes. The classics include Cassata, Linzertorte and the famous Zug iced coffee.
The passion for desserts has always been passed on at Guggital. A few years ago, Satha Satchithanantham's ingenious creation was born: the Zuger Kirsch ice cream cake. This dessert immediately became very popular and is now an integral part of our dessert classics.
Homemade ice cream, which used to be stirred by hand in the brine bath, is also very important to us. Many of our ice cream recipes are still based on Franz Elsener's basic recipes and are seasonally supplemented with fine creations.
Our dessert menu is regularly enriched with wonderfully creative, seasonal desserts. You will always find something new and tempting to delight your palate.
We look forward to spoiling you with a delicious homemade dessert at Guggital soon.
