The story
At the Gasthaus “Beim Stöckeler,” the Stöckeler family has cultivated a place where genuine Allgäuer hospitality is more than a promise – it’s a way of life. Their guiding motto, “Lond nas schmecke und sind gern do” (Let it taste good and we are happy to be here), sets the tone for every visit. This commitment to the guest’s well-being has earned the restaurant a Michelin Recommended award, a testament to the consistent quality and warmth found within its walls.
The kitchen, led by chef and owner Markus Stöckeler, focuses on fresh, seasonal country cooking. The team sources all ingredients and raw materials exclusively from the region, relying on trusted partners who share their dedication to quality. This philosophy ensures that every dish reflects the best of the local landscape, from the pastures of the Allgäu to the surrounding farms. The result is honest, flavorful country cooking that feels both familiar and refined.
The atmosphere at Zum Hirschen is one of relaxed comfort. Guests can enjoy a midday or evening meal in the traditional Gaststuben, or a cool beer in the Sommergarten when the weather is fine. The restaurant also offers private rooms for family celebrations, weddings, and business events, with the team happy to craft a personalized menu. With wheelchair access, ample parking, and electric vehicle charging stations, the Gasthaus is welcoming to all. It’s a place where the Stöckeler family’s passion for hospitality and regional cuisine comes together, creating a dining experience that is both unpretentious and deeply satisfying.
