Klosterstuble

We booked the day before and we were pleased that we had as they were clearly full. We shared a caramelised goats cheese as a starter, delicious. Then we both chose the maulthausen which were superb too. A bottle of excellent local riesling and the...bill was very reasonable. Best restaurant that we tried in Rothenburg. Recommended.

This restaurant located inside the same hotel name Kloster Stuble, more easier to find by hotel address on a small street off Herrngasse near the castle garden. This is a classy place for delicious and beautifully presented traditional cuisine (more dishes specialize of Franconian recipes than...Bavarian). This is the right place to try homemade Maultaschen soup. Maultaschen are a kind of large meat filled dumpling in Swabian cuisine. They consist of sheets of pasta dough filled with minced meat, smoked meat, spinach, bread crumbs and onions and flavored with various herbs and spices. Choose from their shaded terrace, sleek and stony modern dining room, or woody traditional dining room. Open Thu Mon 5:30 pm 10 pm, closed Tue Wed. Reservation required even if you stay as a hotel guest (as we are). The restaurant was full (outside) where we wanted to dine on Thursday on 5:30 pm and all evening long. The manager who made a reservation for us, asked to be on time, otherwise our spots they can hold only for 30 minutes. The price is slightly higher than mid range, but food was tasty and also we ordered the bottle of local wine, which was delicious (see a photo).

Delicious meal and fair prices. For us it was the best restaurant in Rothenburg of those we tested and they were really kind.

A great gem to sit and enjoy the local cuisine in a perfect little town. I would go back in a heartbeat!

We had two meals here. Had a sausage plate for lunch and a Cordon bleu for the evening meal. If we had stayed another day, we would have dined there again.
