Local tip
Check the changing evening menu before visiting, especially when seasonal ingredients or lake-based dishes are the main attraction.

Frauenhof is a restaurant in Rapperswil-Jona that focuses on freshly prepared food with an authentic, local and seasonal character. Its menu changes with the time of year, giving the kitchen room to work with ingredients that suit the current season rather than following a fixed selection throughout the year.

The interior is styled with care and creates a comfortable setting for different parts of the day. Lunch is built around a weekly changing offer, while a small snack menu provides familiar dishes for guests looking for something more straightforward. From March to September, the restaurant also serves afternoon snacks from Friday to Sunday, including lighter plates, mezze and fried specialities.

In the evening, the menu changes every three to five weeks. House-made pasta, grilled food, fresh vegetables and dishes featuring produce from the lake form recurring elements of the evening offering. The approach combines straightforward restaurant cooking with a clear connection to the local area and the season.

Frauenhof also has a sense of place beyond its food. The house is associated with a story from the time of the plague, when it was spared from the devastation. A Madonna remains part of that story and represents the hope connected with the building. This gives the restaurant a distinctive cultural note without taking attention away from its dining-room atmosphere.

The restaurant suits diners seeking a relaxed meal with changing choices, whether for a weekday lunch, an afternoon snack or an evening occasion. Its menu structure can appeal to guests who enjoy seasonal variation, while the snack selection offers a simpler alternative. The combination of local ingredients, house-made elements and a carefully arranged interior gives Frauenhof a defined identity among dining options around Zurich.

Frauenhof is located at Kluggasse 2 in 8640 Rapperswil-Jona. Reservations and enquiries can be made directly with the restaurant.
