Where to Eat During the World Economic Forum
Oli Corkhill
From Michelin-quality tasting menus to traditional alpine classics, Davos has a varied dining scene. During WEF, all of the restaurants tend to be booked out with limited availability. Whether you’re planning a business dinner, a working lunch, or an informal meet-up over coffee, securing your table in advance or knowing where to go for a walk-in is essential. At Leo Trippi, our WEF team are on hand to assist with reservations and insider recommendations throughout your stay.
