2. Altes Haus
$$ | |This wonderfully charming medieval half-timber house (1368) is Bacharach's oldest one standing and a favorite setting for films and photos. It doesn't disappoint with its food and wine, either: the kitchen uses the freshest ingredients possible and buys meat and game from local butchers and hunters, serving up local classics such as Rieslingrahmsuppe (Riesling cream soup) and Reibekuchen (potato pancakes) in addition to the seasonal specialties.

4. Burg Landshut Restaurant

5. Café Stanton
$$ | |Cologne's main pedestrian shopping street is practical but uninspiring—some even say ugly. This café is an airy, artsy oasis with outdoor terrace seating and a view of the 14th-century Antonite church. The food is international with an emphasis on the Mediterranean, and includes many organic, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. The selection of cakes is divinely German, and there's a jazz dinner every Saturday. Three enormous, delicate chandeliers, made entirely of plastic waste, provide lighting.
Schilderg. 57, Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, 50667, Germany0221-271–0710Known For
- Stanton burger (with organic cheese, braised onions, tomatoes, and homemade ketchup)

7. Geniesserei Alte Wache
$$ | |With its position right on the market place in the center of town, you'd be forgiven for suspecting the Alte Wache to be a tourist trap. However, you'd be mistaken, as good regional cuisine such as local trout (Forelle) with potato and apple salad as well as salads, sandwiches, and a very popular spaghetti bolognese are on the reasonably priced menu in this spacious, friendly, air-conditioned café.

9. Historische Weinwirtschaft
$$ | |Tables in the flower-laden garden in front of this lovingly restored half-timber house are at a premium in summer, though the seats in the nooks and crannies indoors are just as inviting. From generous portions of Sauerbraten (marinated pot roast) and Spiessbraten (spit-roasted pork), the menu (in local dialect, but you can ask for a version in English) is country cooking at its best.

11. Restauarant Landsknecht
$$ | |Martina Lorenz and her winemaker husband Joachim operate the Vinothek at this hotel and restaurant north of St. Goar, where you can sample his delicious Bopparder Hamm wines.

13. Scroeder's Wacht am Rhein
$$ | |Overlooking the Remagen Bridge and Peace Museum, this bright contemporary restaurant departs from the substantial traditional fare in favor of a menu of light, French or Italian-inflected dishes—a savory tart of chanterelle mushrooms, spring onions and cherry tomatoes, roasted monkfish with zucchini "spaghetti" and pesto, wild salmon with fried potatoes, wild mushrooms gnocchi with shaved parmesan. The yummy homemade waffles for dessert are big enough for two. Seating on the river is a big plus in summer.

15. Weihenstephaner Wiesbaden

The classic Bavarian food comes in generous portions, from the best crispy pork knuckle (Schweinshaxe) in town—worth ordering in advance as they only make a set number each day—to schnitzel, fried chicken (Backhendl), and sausages with sauerkraut and fried potatoes.

18. Weinstube Kruger-Rumpf
$$ | |It's well worth the 10-minute drive from Bingen (just across the Nahe River) to enjoy the refined country cooking and wines produced by the Rumpf family, whether inside the 1790s house, or outside on the large, wisteria-draped suntrap of a patio. Seasonal house specialties include geschmorte Schweinebacken (braised pork jowls) with kohlrabi, boiled beef with green herb sauce, and Winzerschmaus (a casserole of potatoes, sauerkraut, bacon, cheese, and herbs).

- Cozy atmosphere

20. Zum Weissen Schanen
$$ | |The elegant-rustic ambiance created by wood beams, crisp linens, and antique touches heightens the pleasure of dining on modern German dishes with a continental flair. Regional favorites, like lightly breaded veal cutlets, share top-billing with more sophisticated fare: sautéed scallops with arugula pesto, whole trout stuffed with wild girolle mushrooms, and house-made goose paté, all made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Desserts are lighter than the usual Saxon sweets and the wine list is top notch.
