Brauquöll Appenzell - where hops meet home

At Brauquöll Appenzell, you can look directly into the brewers' brewhouse - where water, malt, hops and yeast come to life. A fine tour with depth and flavour.

Around forty speciality beers, fine Säntis malt whiskies and fine delicacies made from spent grains await curious palates and keen senses in the new shop. To take away. For savouring. For at home or on site.

At the craft beer tap, things get serious:
Here you not only test new flavours, but also your strength. Because these beers are not for the faint-hearted - but for explorers who know that good flavour has rough edges.

The Locher brewery in Appenzell can be reached by car in around 30 minutes.

Opening hours
Monday 1.00 - 5.00 pm
Tuesday to Friday 10.00 - 12.15 and 1.00 - 5.00 pm
Saturday and Sunday 10.00 - 5.00 pm

CHEZ HENRY - THE FRENCH POP-UP RESTAURANT

A touch of France has recently come to Heiden, in the former Barissimo at Poststrasse 32a: just in time for France's national holiday on 14 July, the Hotel Heiden opened the pop-up restaurant ‘Chez Henry’ – a place that combines French bistro culture with local flair. The name is a double tribute: to the French women's national football team, which stayed at the Hotel Heiden during WEURO 2025, and to the great humanist Henry Dunant, whose spirit of humanity and hospitality shapes the concept.

At Chez Henry, nothing is set in stone: the menu changes regularly and is influenced by seasonal ideas, market trends and exciting guest chefs. Sometimes rustic, sometimes refined – but always as regional as possible, made with love and only available for a short time.

13 August to 6 September 2025 with guest chef Micha Merz
Every evening, Micha Merz transforms Chez Henry into a Parisian bistro serving classic French cuisine – with a modern twist, seasonal ingredients and great attention to detail. Early reservations are recommended as seating is limited.

Mid-November 2025 to the end of February 2026
Chez Henry becomes a cosy fondue restaurant – perfect for winter evenings with friends, family or for Christmas dinners with business associates.

The team at Hotel Heiden is looking forward to creating a new meeting place with ‘Chez Henry’.

À bientôt at Chez Henry
