The story

Brasserie Le Gogant: Bib Gourmand in Le Chenit, Switzerland

Brasserie Le Gogant, Le Chenit

In the heart of the Vallée de Joux, Brasserie Le Gogant takes its name from the Combiers dialect for a solitary white fir of exceptional size—a landmark that becomes a refuge for people and wildlife alike. True to that spirit, this restaurant offers generous food and beautiful moments “under the Gogant,” with a breathtaking view over the Risoux forest.

The kitchen teams gather produce directly from the nearby wilds, crafting a seasonal, modern cuisine that is both sincere and satisfying. The menu changes with nature’s rhythm, focusing on what the valley provides. This commitment to quality and value earned Brasserie Le Gogant a Michelin Bib Gourmand, a recognition given for good quality, good value cooking.

The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, designed for relaxed meals throughout the day and the week. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, the setting invites you to settle in and take your time. The restaurant is part of the Hotel des Horlogers, which also houses the more gastronomic La Table des Horlogers by chef Emmanuel Renaut and a lively bar serving signature cocktails and sharing plates.

In Le Chenit, Brasserie Le Gogant stands as a straightforward, warm destination for modern cuisine rooted in the landscape of the Vallée de Joux.
