It used to be a really good restaurant, but I can no longer recommend it.The food is average, with a strong downward trend over the years - the prices are far too high. Icing on the cake: waitress(s) unfriendly and arrogantThat was probably our last time, as well as some friends and acquaintances with similar experiences. One more pity star for the wonderful ambience and a portion of “Once upon a time”. Too bad.

The Wirtshaus Im Ehrental is a wonderful restaurant in the middle of the Thuringian Forest on the edge of Schmalkalden. Always worth a visit.

We were in the inn in mid-June 2024. The inn was open until 8 p.m. and even though we were there at the last minute, the friendly waitress offered us a place.You can sit outside very well, but there is also a nice rustic atmosphere in the inn.Food was top and freshly prepared. Prices also very good.Can only be recommended.

Friendly and flexible service. We were there on New Year's Eve shortly before a booked group. Almost all seats were reserved, but we were offered a seat and served a warm meal.

The inn in Ehrental is probably the tip in the surrounding area.The price-performance ratio is unbeatable and the service is extremely customer-oriented.Reservation strongly recommended.The inn is located directly in the forest and offers a wonderful view of the red deer and fallow deer enclosure in summer. The animals are largely tame and are happy to be petted in exchange for a few apples.Please note that these animals cannot tolerate bread!There are enough parking spaces nearby and only in the worst case no more than 100 m away.Since the road is only a feeder to the hotel and inn and then turns into a forest path, there is no road noise.In summer there are various covered places on the edge of the forest where you can enjoy good food with self-service. In winter it is “only” served in the inn.The menu is clear, but offers something for everyone. There is also a selection for children.The game dishes, which are particularly characterized by their excellent cooking quality, are particularly recommended. Also worth mentioning are the sauces, which always complement the dish and support it in a well-rounded manner.The service is friendly and sufficiently staffed that requests can be accommodated at any time.Conclusion: the inn is particularly recommended and anyone who is nearby will miss out on an excellent meal if they pass by without visiting.

Rustic excursion restaurant at the gates of Schmalkalden, located in the middle of the forest. Good food at reasonable prices and a pleasant, rustic atmosphere, in summer there is also an outdoor area with picnic huts. Forest parking lot
