The story
The Naturpark-Restaurant Grüner Baum has operated in Todtnau since 1758. This long-standing address anchors the local community while offering refined Baden cuisine to visiting guests. Generations of stewards have maintained the property without altering its core identity. The kitchen continues to source ingredients from nearby valleys and mountain slopes.
Wild boar and venison form a steady pillar of the local table. Hunters supply fresh meat throughout the cooler months. Cooks transform these cuts using Baden cooking techniques that prioritize slow braising and simple seasoning. Smaller plates labeled as Schwarzwald-Tapas allow diners to sample multiple regional flavors in one sitting.
The guest house maintains several attractive stubs that accommodate different party sizes. These rooms offer quiet corners where conversation flows easily. Staff deliver courses at a measured pace that matches the surrounding mountain air. The steady commitment to Baden cuisine standards secured a 1.5 spoon rating from the Schlemmer Atlas guide for 2026.
