Hi Kirsten Steintrager,

Welcome to MySwissAlps.

For reasonable meals, I usually go to Migros, Coop or Manora restaurants. These are usually available in the larger towns. Migros and Coop also operate supermarkets and small kiosks with ready meals (i.e. Coop Pronto and Migrolino).

You can practical cost-saving tips for your trip here: https://www.myswissalps.com/planning/practical/budget/

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Anna

Hi Kirsten,

In Spiez, I like restaurant Riviera because of the varied menu and the location right on the lake. Their price is average, I would say.

“Spiezer Restaurant & Lodge” is at the station and on my wish list, but I haven’t tried it yet. They have affordable daily menus.
