Hotel Plettenberger Hof

A charming modern restaurant serving ambitious seasonal cuisine that is strongly influenced by the region and often incorporates home-grown fruit and vegetables. The set menu has four, six or eight courses; its vegetarian counterpart comes in a four- or five-course format. The service is friendly and the wine recommendations helpful. In the attractive courtyard, there is also a bakery, a farm shop and a farm café, as well as a hotel. Alternatively, Hasenpfeffer is open in the evenings for traditional dishes with modern influences.

This restaurant has become something of an institution in the region. The Wieland-Stuben has been a byword for classic cuisine since 1965. The elegant, tastefully decorated dining area makes for a really appealing setting, as does the gorgeous garden terrace. In their classic French cuisine, Lukas Erfurth and his team use only selected ingredients that impress with their freshness and quality. You can opt for the set menu or dine à la carte. The excellent service comes courtesy of a team headed up by sommelier Ronja. On Sundays, there is a three-course set menu (no à la carte dishes).

Sandra and Jörn Haumann have turned the family-owned estate, which dates back to 1899, into a charming restaurant. While he takes care of the service, she prepares an ambitious set menu that takes its cue from the seasons; some of the ingredients are home-grown. Food is served in a lovely high-ceilinged room, whose modern interior design incorporates decorative features such as a wine rack, a workbench and large pictures. This space also makes an ideal venue for events and weddings. Tip: the farm shop (open on Wed and Thu afternoons).
