In the former stainless-steel hall of the Vevey Mechanical Engineering Workshops, the restaurant Les Ateliers breathes new life into an industrial building steeped in history. Built in 1918 to test hydraulic turbines, the building stood abandoned for nearly 25 years before being renovated and transformed into a restaurant.
The dining experience is divided into two parts. The Brasserie offers traditional French cuisine—simple and hearty—featuring seasonal dishes, while the Restaurant focuses on surprise menus designed according to the seasons and available ingredients. The desserts are also homemade.
The restaurant is run by Jean-Sébastien Ribette and Sahondra Verdan, who previously made their mark at the Auberge de la Veveyse, earning a Michelin star and 16 points in the Gault&Millau guide.
