Enjoy Restaurant Waldrain

The restaurant on Chrischona Mountain.

When choosing a restaurant, it’s not just about the quality of the food and drinks, but also the location. The Waldrain simply has the perfect location – in the middle of greenery and yet only a few minutes away from Riehen near Basel. Discover the historic Restaurant Waldrain on Chrischona Mountain

imperial & royal

Whether fritatta soup, boiled beef (Tafelspitz) or Kaiserschmarrn – the head chef delights with classic favourites and surprises guests with his own creations. Let our service staff recommend the perfect wine to accompany your meal. Restaurant Waldrain looks forward to welcoming you!

Radically regional

Restaurant Waldrain sources its meat, fruit and vegetables from farmers on Chrischona Mountain. Milk, eggs and cheese are purchased locally in the Basel region. In addition, there is “Our beer” on tap.

Cooking together as a team event

At Restaurant Waldrain, you will find idyll, enjoyment and your own ‘private space’. The team welcomes you and your guests with a glass of Prosecco. The ingredients are already weighed out. The recipes are ready. Together with your team you cook, roast and sizzle your menu. The Waldrain team, of course, provides professional and charming support.

Contact & Opening hours

Restaurant Waldrain will remain closed until further notice. In the background, the new owners are working towards a reopening in the near future. From March 2026 onwards, the red garden buvette will be open at weekends, offering a selected range of snacks and beverages.
