At Brunfels, dining takes two forms: a relaxed bar built around gin and botanicals, and a restaurant rooted in German cuisine with a contemporary edge. Whether you're after a quick drink or a full meal, both are steps from your room.
Inspired by Mainz botanist Otto Brunfels, Brunfels Bar brings together more than 30 German gins, curated cocktails and small plates designed for sharing. Local partners, including Kuehn Kunz Rosen and Edelranz, add a distinctly regional touch. Located in Mainz’s historic Old Town, the bar is an inviting place to gather, linger and discover something new.
Our Executive Chef leads a kitchen focused on modern German cooking built around seasonal, regional ingredients. The wine list leans into Rheinhessen and Rheingau, the two wine regions just outside Mainz, alongside a broader selection of German and international labels. Expect a rotating calendar of events layered on top of the regular menu, from themed tasting evenings to weekly specials.
The festive season is just around the corner – bringing with it one of the most wonderful times of the year. We warmly invite you to celebrate this special season with us at Brunfels Hotel Mainz. Look forward to seasonal culinary delights, festive dining experiences, and memorable moments in the heart of Mainz. Whether you're gathering with friends, enjoying a special dinner, or raising a glass to the New Year, discover the festive spirit of Brunfels – where warm hospitality, botanical charm, and exceptional flavours come together.
