"This charming farmhouse dating back to 1604 is truly idyllic! Set at an altitude of around 600m, it boasts a beautiful location with views of Freiburg. Inside, low ceilings, rustic wooden seats and benches, wooden floorboards and an old tiled stove make for a cosy atmosphere and tap into the character of the region. Dedicated owners Melanie and Pierre Barrel are in the thick of the action here – she heads up the friendly and professional service team; he runs the kitchen. Diners are served a "carte blanche" menu of four or six courses, inspired by the seasons and the proprietors' French heritage. In addition to the restaurant, there is a bistro section with a short à la carte menu. The garden and terrace are real highlights – in summer, guests naturally gravitate outdoors. Those looking to stay a little longer and explore the wonderful Black Forest landscape can spend the night in one of the attractive, comfortable rooms available in the charming guesthouse." - Michelin Inspector

Such a lovely experience!! We heartily recommend dining here as Melanie and Pierre are so enthusiastic and passionate about sharing their love of French food and wine. Pierre was most accommodating to my allergies, which I recognize is not easy! I loved the poached egg atop the salad with Chanterelles (!!!!) and the duck entree was delicious! I was even able to have dessert, an apple tart (!!!) and a quenelle of the most decadent dark chocolate glacé. Melanie was lovely in making sure our wine glasses were never empty, shared her experiences in Southern France, and gave us a tour of their banquet area and outdoor patio. The Bistro was warm, intimate, relaxing, and the meal, delicious! Please visit and support this couple’s efforts. Thank you, Pierre and Melanie!

We came for Christmas day. Great service and atmosphere. We just felt that the food was a little on the safe side. We had hoped for the food to be a little braver and daring but I think the aim may be to please the majority. We particularly liked the accompanying wines to each of the courses.

Great food experience! Lots of small lovely pieces within several courses, well balanced menu with well accompanying wines. For sure nothing to do every day. Here and there you can enjoy this tasty experience.

Rooms are cozy and ours was quite large. Room was clean and breakfast (served at the table, no buffet) was good and seemed home made. ||Our room didn't have curtains for privacy or to make the room dark at night, that's just good to know.

Food was acceptable but I don't speak much German and the staff didn't seem to speak much English so was a bit of a boundary there. Seemed like a nice atmosphere though. I would possibly eat here again if I was in the area.

Excellent experience. I recommend to try the restaurant with its menu carte blanche for delicious surprises.

Exceptional cuisine and extremely attentive service. This is an insider tipp, as the cooking is definitely worth MORE than 1 Michelin star.

Excellent French cuisine. Service friendly but slow at times.
