About The Swiss House | |
|
A key attraction of the Swiss House is the restaurants location, set in the beautiful Glen Helen national park. For food lovers, the restaurant offers a truly unique dining experience with the Islands only Josper Charcoal Oven. Best described as a large indoor BBQ, meat, fish and vegetables are cooked over hot charcoals at a high temperature sealing the food quickly and capturing the juices and flavours that would in more conventional ovens be lost.

Review of The Swiss House - St Johns - Isle of Man written 16 Feb 2013
Nice meal last night at the Swiss House: the food was delicious and the staff very helpful.
The quantities, however, are very large, and I ended up having two starters, because there was no way I could manage a starter and a main course. Fortunately, what I fancied came either as starter or main: BBQ spare ribs and queenie pancake with a side salad. I had a homemade blackcurrant sorbet for dessert. Delicious!
I only regret that no "light" starter (e.g. melon and prosciutto, or a little shrimp or crab salad, or smoked salmon) is available.

Review of The Swiss House - St Johns - Isle of Man written 16 Feb 2013
Enjoyed a nice meal at The Swiss House last night. The service is very courteous and attentive, the food is of good quality and fresh with a reasonable selection to choose from.
I started with a queenie pancake, which was delicious, and had home-made fish fingers for the main course. If I have one (small) niggle it would be that the plates are piled too high with food. I have a pretty good appetite, but no way could I face a dessert after my main course.
Prices are not unreasonable for the type of restaurant and food on offer. All-in-all, a very good place to go... I'll be visiting again soon!
