Restaurant Bareiss

Top choice in The Black Forest


Claus-Peter Lumpp has consistently won plaudits for his brilliantly composed, French-inflected menus at Restaurant Bareiss. On paper, dishes such as sautéed langoustine with almond cream, and fried fillet of suckling calf and sweetbreads with chanterelles seem deceptively simple; on the plate they become things of beauty, rich in textures and aromas and presented with an artist’s eye for detail.

Restaurant Bareiss has three Michelin stars. It's situated 11km north of Freudenstadt.
