As with all real pearls, hard to find! The location of the ferme-auberge in the forest makes it difficult to find, but it's worth the effort. We come here for over twenty years, sometimes several times a year. And have never been disappointed, on the contrary, we have lunch or dinner each time with utmost pleasure. The food is not sophisticated but honest and traditional: vegetables come partly from the own garden of the restaurant, game comes from the surrounding forest, etc. Do not expect a fancy restaurant: the quality is in the food and the beautiful area around the restaurant. On nice days you can sit on the outside patio while enjoying the food and the environment at the same. The pric...
I was on a hiking trip doing village-to-village. Since on Sundays many places are closed in France I wasn’t able to shop lunch before I started the hike. The restaurant is on the highest point of the route and is open on a Sunday so I thought perfect. Until I reached it just into lunchtime: sorry but we’re full. No reservation made, you have to go. (outside there were plenty free tables) If you’re a hiker don’t count on them, they will send you away without food. Which is a disgrace when you’re the only place in miles of forest and hills. In the next village (Hunawihr, another 6km hike) there is nothing open on a Sunday, despite what is found online.
We went on the 2 hour 15 minute walk from Kaysersberg via the castle on a beautiful Autumn day. Spectacular views during the steep climb and then a long walk through forest to the restaurant. It was well worth the walk. Set menus involving a hearty vegetable soup to start, followed by various local dishes and a choice of 3 desserts to finish. Rustic surroundings and a real food experience at a really good price. One and a half hours to walk back via the access road.
Nice restaurant. Typical rural atmosphere in the mountains of Alsace. Very friendly staff. Although there are always many people, do not give up, there will be a place for everyone. The food is good. Be careful with Munster cheese, who does not know its terrible aroma, not to order dishes with it. The whole restaurant is filled with its aroma, just when a plate is brought out of the kitchen. The restaurant is worth a visit!
