L'esquisse - Carte

We enjoyed the brunch, an incredible setting Just the coffee was average But we recommend without hesitation! That was delicious

Very beautiful place. The setting is peaceful in the middle of a park. The service is remarkable and the dishes are very good and very well presented. I recommend.

I went here with friends for a lovely, sun-filled brunch. The eggs benedict were perfect and the **** marys absolutely hit the spot. The outdoor space felt relaxed, but bustling, and the staff were attentive and courteous. Will definitely go back. Voir le carte

By far one the best brunch places in Lausanne. There are few choices on the brunch menu, but the quality is very high. I did enjoy my cappuccino, with a super nice presentation, and my sweet pancakes. I've also tried bacon and eggs and the bacon was just delicious. They serve mainly local products which make this place an A+ site. The view from the Hermitage over Lausanne is breathtaking.

Beautiful place with a contemporary menu of fusion dishes and brunch. What a fund! The service is not consistently good. A bit of the usual arrogance we see in Switzerland from service and politeness from some staff. If you’re used to this, as you will be if you live here, then it’s nothing to write home about and it’s worth the effort to come here for the incredible food, nice view and proximity to the lovely hermitage art gallery

The desserts are extremely tasty and unique, however the drinks are not spectacular. The atmosphere is relaxed but since it was raining, part of the restaurant/cafe was smelling like wet dog. The table was a little sticky and no napkins were served. The staff is kind but wanted us to pay directly after the order which gave off a distrusting impression. All in all agreeable after visiting the Foundation de l'Hermitage Exhibition but I wouldn't come here just for the restaurant. Voir le carte

Small restaurant associated with the Hermitage art museum, They serve simple but honest food with brunch on Saturdays and Sundays when the art loving BoBo's from Lausanne and its region visit the museum. Usually brunches permit the participants to chose freely from a buffet, here you pay for each dish and this may add up to a considerable amount of money, in particular for a family. The terrace is lovely when the weather is nice and you have a view over the cathedral, the lake and the alps. The children can use a nearby playground. Not particularly good value for money.

The vibe and park around are nice. The waiters are attentive. On the downside, the brunches are over around 12:00 (when we arrived), and only cold dishes and raw meats were served. Had one ceviche and beef tartare both of which tastes very average. Everything was served beautifully but you could tell they are all coming from the fridge to reduce serving time. Nothing was freshly made! The chairs were not super comfortable. The prices considering the cold serving of the dishes and their tastes were too expensive. I would think two times before going there if I don’t mind the expense.

Despite it being a gloomy, wet day outside, we were welcomed very warmly to L’Esquisse which made a lasting impression. Even my dog was treated like a VIP! All staff were very obliging and friendly, offering good recommendations from the menu. We were there for the weekend brunch. I highly recommend the Eggs Benedict and pancakes. Ensure you have a good appetite as they also offered a nice range of fresh breads and pastries. The home-made jam is just superb, it tastes fresh from an Alpine meadow! I think this place would also be great to check out at lunch or dinner and especially their terrace. It’s in a great location next to The Hermitage gallery and some parkland too. I can’t wait for my... Voir le carte
