The story
Restaurant Krone in Hamburg approaches Baden cooking with a clear focus on ingredient quality and steady execution. Recognized by the Schlemmer Atlas for its consistent standards, the Hauri family guides both the kitchen and guest relations. Their menus feature robust preparations like wild ragout, calf liver, and lamb back alongside established standards such as cordon bleu.
The dining space carries a distinctly contemporary aesthetic while maintaining the comfortable scale of a traditional family hotel. Large windows and clean lines create an environment suited for extended conversations or quick weekday lunches. The kitchen remains close enough to hear the evening rush, keeping service personal rather than rushed.
The menu shifts alongside local harvests, replacing heavier winter preparations with lighter spring vegetables when availability allows. The dessert counter rotates through house baked pastries and fruit compotes that match current market conditions. Guests can still order a glass of wine or a digestif from the dedicated bar area between courses. This flexible structure keeps the kitchen responsive without compromising the regional German cuisine they prepare.
