    Though panoramic views of the Black Forest and Vosges mountain range from the lovely outdoor terrace are a bonus, a pleasant ambiance, friendly service, and good food served all day long complete the package.

A hearty breakfast is available on weekends and holidays.

  • 7. Café Ihringer

    $

    All roads lead to this pretty peach-colored café-bakery smack in the center of town, where an eye-popping variety of German style cakes, tortes, and tartes make for a difficult choice indeed, further complicated by towering ice cream sundaes topped with whipped cream and fresh fruit and an array of homemade pralines and truffles. Savory soups, salads, and crêpes make this a good choice for a quick lunch or a resplendent brunch featuring fresh breakfast pastries hot from the oven. A large, sunny terrace is perfect for a coffee and a quick bite or a beer and some people watching. Deservedly popular, it gets very crowded in high season.

    $$$$

    The name is a highly sophisticated brewing term describing the means by which the brewmaster samples the fermenting product. That's a good description of the atmosphere here, too: a brewery with service that takes its time to prepare burgers, steaks, and other heavy dishes that wash down well with beer.

  • 19. Buchmanns

    $$$
    Closed Permanently

    Elke and Günter Buchmann run a "linen tablecloth and real silver" establishment, with a beer garden and a bar. The various suggested courses are grouped on the fancy handwritten menu, along with the fancy price of each dish. You can, of course, just order one of the courses, but be prepared for a disapproving look. The proprietors are Austrian, and the specialties of their homeland, such as Tafelspitz (boiled beef with horseradish applesauce) and Kaiserschmarrn (torn-up fluffy egg pancakes with apples, raisins, cinnamon, and jam), are recommended, but the Wiener schnitzel is divine. If you have trouble with the extensive wine list, the waitstaff is ready and willing to help.
