Holy Cow!

Possibly the best burgers in Lausanne. Their "Elvis Blue Cheese" burger is rated the best burger in Switzerland by gourmet blog theburgerblog.ch. The restaurant seats about 30 but it gets rather crowded in the evening. But it's definitely a must try.

Hours: Mon-Wed 11:00-22:00, Tue-Sat 11:00-23:00
Price: Fr. 20
