Honest cooking
Good ingredients, clear flavours and care in preparation. Our Swiss classics are the starting point. The seasons bring fresh ideas.
It’s all about you at the table.
A plate you look forward to. People you enjoy spending time with. And the feeling of being welcome.
Swiss roots. Open to new ideas.
The X stands for fusion: the pleasure of bringing familiar things together with new ideas. 1291 stands for our Swiss roots — and for care, reliability and a sense of community. We want to bring both to the plate and the table: food you recognise and food that sparks curiosity. Service that listens. And a place where you can be yourself.
What matters to us.
Personal hospitality
A quick lunch deserves just as much attention as a big celebration. We listen and think ahead so your visit suits you.
Sharing time together
A restaurant comes alive through its guests. Through conversations, little breaks and shared evenings. We create a welcoming setting for them.
At the heart of Meilenstein. A place of our own.
Our restaurant is in DER MEILENSTEIN in Langenthal. The hotel, seminar rooms, attractions and events are all in the same building. Combine a visit with an event — or simply enjoy a lovely evening in its own right.

What is X1291?
X1291 is our restaurant in DER MEILENSTEIN in Langenthal. In our brand idea, the X stands for fusion: new influences, encounters and openness. 1291 recalls Switzerland and values such as reliability, care and community. Both come together at the table.
What is fusion cuisine?
Fusion brings together ingredients, flavours or techniques from different culinary traditions. Swiss cuisine remains the starting point at X1291. New influences complement it where they add something to the dish.
What is an apéritif?
An apéritif is a sociable gathering with drinks and small bites. It can introduce a meal, round off a working day or be an event in its own right. An apéritif riche includes more substantial food.
