I migliori ristoranti di cucina tedesca in Bolzano/bozen

25/12/2025: The Lady who runs the restaurant is so friendly and sympathetic, she loves to showcase her own produce and food made with her own grown vegetables. Always ask her what she recommend: it will be the freshest and daily special from her garden or from the forest (hint: mushroom!). I ll love to go go back. Do try it!

06/12/2025: We went for dinner, everything was very good and the lady was very nice.

21/09/2025: The Vinschgau rolls are highly recommended

20/09/2025: It's a shame the bakery isn't open on Sundays like it used to be; it was our first stop when we arrived from Germany. Located on the main road, but with a roundabout and plenty of parking, it's always worth a visit.

30/12/2025: If I could rate 0 stars, I would. My mother and I went to the restaurant for a quick pizza dinner. We had to wait twenty minutes after sitting down for our waiter to come and take our order. Then after thirty minutes we asked where our food was, since we only ordered two plates (one plate each) and the response was “it’s coming” after another twenty minutes we decided to leave, with empty stomachs, a wasted evening, and still having to pay for drinks. 1 hour and ten minutes in total just for us to get the lame excuse of “your order never went through to the kitchen”, isn’t it as your job as a waiter to go check on what is going on with the cooks if your customers’ food hasn’t arrived after 30 minutes? And not only but during all of this, other tables that had been seated after us were getting food and dessert while we were still waiting for our food. Worst experience ever.

27/12/2025: Unfortunately, we have to agree with most of the recent negative reviews. A very dated, run-down hotel... We were traveling as a family of 11 and had booked half-board. We had a total of four rooms, all carpeted with old-fashioned carpeting. Some of the bathrooms were new, but designed in such a way that everything flooded when showering. It wasn't particularly clean; toilet paper wasn't replenished and never lasted, so we had to help each other out. Several staff members only spoke Italian, which made communication really difficult. And this in a place where most people speak good German and English. Breakfast was okay, but the rolls were rock hard, the coffee machine was very old, and the coffee was really bad. The breakfast room was very cold overall, which meant all the food and drinks cooled down quickly. Dinner was a disaster. The menus were very poorly translated into German, which led to several surprises. The staff was completely overwhelmed, and we often received the wrong food or the wrong number of meals. Vegetarians have virtually no options here; there's bacon everywhere, unless you eat pasta with tomato sauce every night... Calling it a spa is an insult; there's a dilapidated sauna, and mold is visible everywhere. The only advantage is the location, which is a good starting point for exploring the Val di Fassa, and the Carezza ski area is directly accessible from the hotel (provided there's enough natural snow to cover the slopes). All in all, it's not good value for money, even though it's one of the cheaper accommodations. We won't be back.

30/07/2025: Carino l'ambiente interno e quello all'aperto, buono il servizio, buoni i canederli e le tagliatelle al sugo di salsiccia. Prezzi nella media, clientela gradevole.

22/07/2025: È forse il posto dove ho mangiato peggio a Brunico. Gnocchetti completamente immersi nella panna, cavolo cappuccio asprissimo e canderli senza sapore e molto asciutti. Posto abbastanza caotico, prezzi medio alti…in pieno centro a Brunico c’è di molto meglio secondo me.

23/10/2025: Every time I return to Bolzano, one of my first stops is always the Franziskaner Bakery. It's one of those places that welcomes you with familiar aromas, genuine smiles, and that warm feeling that only things made with passion can provide. As soon as I enter, I'm immediately won over by the aroma of freshly baked bread and the display cases full of traditional pastries. The staff is always kind, smiling, and genuinely attentive—you can tell they love what they do and care about every customer. I can never leave without their best-selling strudel: it's simply perfect. The thin, fragrant pastry envelops a filling of fragrant apples, spices, and a touch of sweetness that captivates with every bite. It's the kind of dessert that tells a story, that tastes of home, of the mountains, and of authenticity. The E-type bread has also become a regular feature of mine—crunchy, aromatic, and full-flavored, perfect both on its own and as an accompaniment to any dish. Franziskaner isn't just a bakery, but a little corner of tradition and humanity in the heart of Bolzano. Every visit is a simple yet special moment of pleasure, always leaving you wanting more.

13/07/2025: A wonderful bakery in the center of Bolzano. We lived nearby and went for fresh pastries for breakfast. Everything was delicious. Very nice service. Thank you.

31/12/2025: Terrible experience, I wouldn't recommend it. The new owner is very rude: politeness is clearly lacking. At noon, we came in just for a drink and to breastfeed our baby. Before sitting down, we were asked if we would be eating, and we clearly said no; despite this, the owner himself sat us down. Shortly after, we were asked to leave because, according to him, since it's a "restaurant," there were people wanting lunch and the table couldn't be occupied just for drinks. I should point out that with a newborn baby who had just breastfed, we were forced to go outside. Finally, when we got the bill, the price didn't match the menu. Final note: Avoid ordering Coca-Cola; it's served from a 2-liter plastic bottle, already empty, in a glass.

22/12/2025: I came in for a coffee and asked for a glass to put some of the coffee I'd used at the counter and bring it to my wife, who was waiting for me outside. My request was mocked because, according to the owner, I was paying for one coffee, but by splitting it, I'd get two. Moral of the story: I wasn't given a disposable cup, even if I paid, and I was mocked, too. The alleged owner is rude and uncouth.

26/11/2025: Just a regular snack bar, but Luis is tough. 👌

29/10/2025: A super friendly innkeeper for many years. The food selection is great and plentiful for a grill place. Whenever I'm in the Brenner Pass, I always enjoy going to Luis's.
