4 Best Restaurants in Tegernsee, The Bavarian Alps

Begun by proprietor Josef Brenner, who brought a taste of nouvelle cuisine to Tegernsee, the attractive restaurant commands fine views from high above Bad Wiessee. Though the restaurant now has new owners, the menu has maintained the same assortment of seasonal specialties and changes every three weeks.

A series of farm buildings dating back to the 19th century on the lake's northern shore were converted into a self-sustaining restaurant with a focus on regional delicacies. A large terrace and walls of windows provide phenomenal views of the lake, and a kid-friendly beer garden keeps young visitors happy until dusk.

Once part of Tegernsee's Benedictine monastery, then a royal retreat, the Bräustüberl is now an immensely popular beer hall and brewery with tasty Bavarian snacks for under €12. In summer, quaff your beer beneath the huge chestnut trees and admire the delightful view of the lake and mountains.

Although everything is modern, this inn in Bad Wiessee takes you back to a less frantic era. Classical music accompanies unpretentious yet tasty meals.
