The story

Gasthaus Sonne Neuhäusle in St. Märgen | Baden Home Cooking in the Black Forest

The Kitchen and the Table

At Gasthaus Sonne Neuhäusle in St. Märgen, home cooking takes its cue from the surrounding Black Forest. Mathias Schlegel guides the kitchen through his fourth generation of family stewardship. He builds menus around fresh Baden ingredients that change with the seasons. The kitchen prioritizes straightforward preparation over complex techniques.

A Seasonal Plate

The dinner menu highlights hearty Badner dishes prepared in the original forest room or the newly refreshed dining hall. Guests often order from a spread of locally sourced components that arrive at the table still carrying the morning chill. A simple glass of Baden wine pairs naturally with these plates. Breakfast follows the same principle, offering a wide buffet where regional dairy and baked goods take center stage.

Space and Recognition

Diners settle into the comfortable timber atmosphere while overlooking the steep slopes of the southern high Black Forest. This grounded setting earned the property a single spoon from the Schlemmer Atlas for its excellent landscape position and authentic approach to Baden home cooking. Summer evenings move to a sunlit terrace where the scent of pine mixes with the evening air. Families continue to run the establishment as a quiet retreat rather than a destination for loud crowds.
