Zum Ritter

Owner Pelle Kossmann and his young team are committed to implementing their own culinary ideas here. The set menu changes every fortnight and is made with select seasonal ingredients sourced from regional producers; some of the livestock and vegetables are raised or grown exclusively for this restaurant. The chefs also adhere to the principle of nose-to-tail eating. The decor is sleek and modern, with a partially visible kitchen and friendly, laid-back service. Fixed charge for table water.

The appeal of the Waldhotel Elfbuchen goes beyond its superb tranquil location in a forest clearing at 536m above sea level – its restaurant draws visitors with fine cooking too. The kitchen presents modern dishes inspired by the seasons and the region, with game sourced from the hotel's own hunting grounds. Precisely prepared dishes packed with flavour are served either à la carte or as a set menu by an attentive and professional front-of-house team. Choose to dine in the cheerful modern interior or out on the lovely terrace. On Sundays, the café serves cakes and tortes from the family's own
