The Buggle family has been running this traditional restaurant in the idyllic Lahn Valley since 1827 and chef Joachim Buggle represents the eighth generation to take the helm. He has brought in an impressive concept revolving around culinary classics, serving flavour-intensive, unpretentious dishes. Appetising examples include braised venison shoulder with house-made spaetzle, wild cranberries and glazed pointed cabbage, or grilled calamaretti with lemon risoni, green asparagus and a crustacean foam. Food is served from noon to 9pm Thu-Sun. There is a three-course lunch menu Thu-Sat. On certain dates, they propose a four-course surprise menu. With its beautiful country-style interior, the restaurant has a pleasant, cosy atmosphere; the Weinstube exudes a slightly more rustic feel. And they have another ace up their sleeve in the form of a wonderful terrace in the shade of the lime trees! The front-of-house team provides charming and cordial service… and Landhotel zum Bären is an excellent overnight option.
