Bezau
I’d been wanting to try this café–pizzeria–winery for ages, and after a ride on the Wälderbähnle, we finally booked a table for lunch. It was every bit as good as I’d hoped. Since our first visit, it was top of my list to book a table again when we spent the weekend recently in Bregenzerwald.
From the moment you step through the door, you’re met with a welcoming, almost curious atmosphere. This traditional house has been completely renovated from the basement right up to the fourth floor, and wandering through it feels like exploring a maze of beautifully curated rooms. It’s not just a restaurant — it’s a showroom filled with culinary products, decorative pieces, and design details that make you want to stop and look at everything.
Design Meets Pizza
We were lucky enough to be seated with a perfect view of the pizza oven. And not just any pizza oven — this one is covered in gold mosaic tiles and is genuinely the prettiest oven I’ve ever seen. My girls were mesmerised. The whole concept encourages you to get up, move around, and explore. You choose your own drink from a huge ice bucket or browse their impressive wine selection and pour your own glass, before settling back at your table.
The menu is smaller than your typical pizzeria, but it’s very much a case of quality over quantity. You’ll find classics like salami and margherita, alongside a changing pizza special that’s seasonal, and offers something a little different and definitely worth trying.
A House Worth Exploring
While waiting for our food, we wandered through the house. Every floor has its own charm, from shelves of beautiful items (all available to buy) to an entire level dedicated to their florist, overflowing with flowers. Even the trip to the bathroom becomes part of the experience — climb the central spiral staircase and admire the lighting design as you go.
Pizza Worth Travelling For
And then the pizzas arrived. I’m not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever eaten. The dough was incredible, the bake was perfect, and my chorizo pizza was unbelievably good. If you live nearby, I’m jealous — having this as your local takeaway feels almost unfair.
Although the hotel itself is more suited to adults, the pizzeria was wonderfully kid‑friendly. And if you have even the slightest interest in design, you simply have to visit. The interiors alone are worth the trip — but you’d be missing out if you didn’t order a pizza while you’re there.
