The story

Freihaus Brenner Bad Wiessee – Bib Gourmand Country Cooking with Tegernsee Views

A Home for Hospitality Above the Tegernsee Valley

Perched above Bad Wiessee, Freihaus Brenner is the kind of place where guests feel genuinely welcome. The Jäger family and their team have built a restaurant that balances tradition with a relaxed, personal touch. The setting alone is reason to visit: the dining rooms are warm and inviting, with fresh flowers and tasteful décor, while the terraces offer sweeping views over the Tegernsee valley. In colder months, the covered terrace transforms into a cozy alpine hut, perfect for a winter meal.

Country Cooking with a Seasonal Touch

The kitchen here is rooted in Bavarian country cooking, using regional products and carefully sourced ingredients. The menu changes every three weeks, reflecting the seasons and the chefs’ creativity. Alongside refined dishes, you will always find honest, hearty fare—a testament to the restaurant’s philosophy that simple can be excellent. Think ofenfrischer Schweinebraten with Weißbiersauce and Kartoffelknödel, or a classic Kaspressknödel made with Tegernseer Bergkäse. For fish lovers, the fangfrischer Saibling from the Wildbad Kreuth fish farm is a standout, served blue or fried with browned butter and parsley potatoes.

The kitchen also ventures into more sophisticated territory with dishes like milk-fed veal tartare “Tonnato” with winter truffle, or grilled langoustine tail with tomato spaghetti, chili, and garlic. Desserts stay true to form: a caramelized Kaiserschmarr’n with vanilla ice cream and apple compote, or Topfenknödel with Zwetschgenröster.

A Bib Gourmand for a Reason

Freihaus Brenner’s consistent quality and value have earned it a Bib Gourmand from Michelin, an award that recognizes good cooking at a fair price. It is a fitting nod to a kitchen that delivers genuine pleasure, whether you come for a Brotzeit, a full dinner, or a festive celebration. The restaurant also caters private events, with several rooms available to accommodate groups of different sizes.

With its mix of regional tradition, seasonal creativity, and an atmosphere that feels both elegant and unpretentious, Freihaus Brenner is a place where country cooking truly shines.
