Storchen

★ Michelin€€€Classic Cuisine, Farm to table

Run with great dedication by two generations of the same family, this traditional inn is a real gem.

Jochen Helfesrieder and his father Fritz stick to seasonal produce when choosing ingredients for their cuisine, which is rooted in classic techniques and based on select regional as well as international produce. Some of it comes from their own farm garden, but the menu also includes excellent fish from France. Standout dishes include the

Höfli

€€€Farm to table

The charming Höfli blends seamlessly into the picturesque old town setting. The enchanting cobblestone courtyard invites you to dine under the summer sky, surrounded by historical walls and half-timbered buildings. The interior is just as pleasant with its sleek, contemporary feel. While maître d' Alexandra Killy ensures a warm welcome, her husband, Marco, prepares delicious and neatly crafted dishes. His classical training shines through in dishes such as foie gras tiramisu with mascarpone, quince, coffee and brioche, or John Dory with fregola sarda and a pointed pepper broth.

Ambiente

€€Farm to table

Few would suspect that such a stylish restaurant could be found on this rather unremarkable industrial estate. In summer, a lovely terrace adds to the appeal. The friendly proprietress provides highly attentive service while the chef-patron transforms top-quality ingredients into freshly prepared classic dishes such as venison saddle with nut crust, savoy cabbage, gnocchi and juniper jus. Three set menus are available (one of them vegetarian), and dishes may also be ordered à la carte.

TripAdvisor review sample · 4.3/5 · 80 reviews

Landhotel Krone in Heitersheim specializes in regional, farm-to-table cuisine. Based on 80 reviews (avg 4.3/5), food quality is generally praised, with highlights including homemade game terrine, monkfish, and well-sized portions. However, some guests noted inconsistent flavors or preparation errors. Service is typically friendly and nimble, though occasionally hectic. Accessibility is a concern for elderly guests due to cobblestones, steps, and a steep wooden staircase to rooms. The atmosphere blends rustic charm with modern comfort, suitable for romantic dinners or family gatherings. Value perceptions vary; while many find the experience fair, others feel the price does not always match the service or food quality.

Suitable for diners seeking authentic regional cuisine and a cozy atmosphere, though those with mobility issues should note the internal layout.
