The story
Landgasthof Bergblick in Bernau brings a grounded approach to Badische cooking to the highest valley of the Black Forest. The Schön family has guided the property since 1910, steadily expanding a former beer hall and saddler workshop into a comfortable dining destination. Their kitchen philosophy prioritizes health and rural rhythms, building every meal around produce delivered straight from neighboring organic farms. They partner closely with local craftsmen to maintain the area’s agricultural traditions.
Cooks at the Bergblick draw heavily from the surrounding woods and local waterways. Deer, wild boar, chamois, and stags arrive from estate hunts, while fresh trout and salmon travel up from the Hotzenwald. Beef and veal originate from Bernau pasture farms, paired with crisp vegetables from the Markgräfler Land. This strict regional loop defines every Baden menu served on-site.
Diners settle into cozy modern rooms featuring traditional tiled stoves or gather in the glass-walled winter garden beside a brick fireplace. The Schön family maintains the intimate scale of a private home, adjusting seating arrangements to suit different groups. A few tables near the entrance remain reserved for visitors traveling with dogs, and larger parties can step outside beneath an old maple tree during sunny afternoons. This steady hospitality earned the property two spoons from the Schlemmer Atlas.
