Dorfalm Lippstadt in Lippstadt

The buffet was delicious. Great service. We'll be back 🎉

We went there a few months ago with our family of five. We had to wait a very long time for our food; the very friendly staff kept putting us off several times. The food finally arrived and was delicious. At the end of our stay, we were more than generously compensated for the long wait. We'd be happy to go back again; that's how customer loyalty works.

A very successful evening with a wonderful gift from Dorf Alm in honor of an 85th birthday! Thank you very much

The food was fantastic. A small, forgivable glitch in the service was easily resolved by "Chef" Stephan. Overall, a great evening.

Have been there several times, always good food, very friendly staff, nothing to complain about.

The Alm is simply stunning. Solid wood everywhere you look. The interior design is such a cohesive whole. The food looks great and tastes just as good. The staff is very friendly. We'll be back, no question. Best, Frank.

Great gastronomy, everything fits

The October menu is impressive, and the cheese dumplings were a blast. The service was also good, thanks Stephan.

Very nice there...good selection on the menu...good value for money... I'd be happy to come back...

Absolutely top-notch. Excellent food, prompt and very approachable service. A+ We'll be back, it's our own fault 😉

Very good location - good value for money

Very tasty food, nice atmosphere.

Everything was super nice service, delicious food,

The place is pretty good the service from the nice lady was great BUT as a former Swabian with many friends in Bavaria I have to say something :D My order of schnitzel with cheese spaetzle and sauce was very tasty but as a Swabian I have to say something about the spaetzle they were good yes but for me personally not authentic enough (hard to describe) but for this region (Lippstadt) still very suitable so all in all very very tasty (food at a very high level) I would come back definitely, I would order it again definitely as I said very very tasty

Ordered food for pickup over the phone. After waiting for almost an hour, we were told that the dish we ordered wasn't on the menu and we should please choose something else. Otherwise, it was really delicious and the atmosphere was nice.

Very nice staff and good breakfast...

We were there in October and were very satisfied! The food was very good, freshly prepared and attractively presented. The service was attentive, friendly and took care of all of our needs. Particularly noteworthy are the fair prices, which made the experience even more enjoyable. This is how I imagine a perfect visit to a restaurant. I would go here again at any time, even with friends who don't come from East Westphalia. Absolutely recommended!

Everything was great! Beautifully decorated, delicious Bavarian food, and top-notch service.

Very friendly service. Everything was to our satisfaction. We'd be happy to come back.

Nice shop with a pleasant atmosphere. The food was delicious, except for a slightly salty sauce. At the entrance, it was noted that they were understaffed due to illness, but it was hardly noticeable given the number of customers.

Price-performance ratio is absolutely not right, a complete waste of the very nice location.

I can only recommend it. Delicious and the portion size is good. You should allow yourself some time before eating. It's not fast food. 😉

The portion size of the pork knuckle was so large that I had to sweat and capitulate. It was still delicious, though. I'd gladly order it again.

Very nice staff in a great alpine pasture

We were there for the breakfast buffet. Everything you could need was there. The food was constantly being replenished, and the service was attentive and friendly.

Great location, even with a large group.

Very nice ambiance, great food, and great service. I can only recommend it.

We ate there twice. The service was very friendly, the drinks came quickly, but the food took over an hour to arrive. When we asked if we'd been forgotten, we were given a shot of schnapps on the house as compensation. Unfortunately, the fried potatoes (more like potato wedges) were undercooked. We mentioned this when paying. On our second visit, we pointed out the problem we encountered during our first visit when ordering, but this time everything went perfectly. We'd be happy to come back.

Great atmosphere with a good menu.

A truly fantastic restaurant. The ambiance and food are perfect, and the service is always friendly. The portions are huge. We'll be back.

I tried the burger buffet at the Dorfalm and was unfortunately disappointed. The selection seemed very simple to me – mainly tomato, cucumber, cheese, and lettuce. The beef patties didn't have the typical grilled flavor, but were more reminiscent of boiled meat, and the bacon was overcooked. The chicken patties were edible, but not particularly good. Pulled pork wasn't offered at all, and I didn't try tofu. The buffet itself also had its shortcomings: Wedges, curly fries, and sauces were often empty, so you sometimes had to wait. In addition, plates often remained on the tables for a long time, even though several servers walked by. Our server was friendly, but overall, we rarely saw them. The buffet seemed a bit confusing to me, requiring a lot of zigzagging. A small dessert might have rounded it all off. For the price of €21.50, the buffet was disappointing in my opinion, as neither the quality nor the flow were up to scratch. I've been to the Dorfalm twice now and probably won't go again.

It's always worth a visit. The atmosphere is great, the staff is always nice and friendly, and the food is delicious. There are always specials. We'll be happy to come back.

The ambiance was really nice. The waitress was attentive and friendly, but the food, or rather the salad with chicken breast strips, consisted mostly of cheap iceberg lettuce, two small tomatoes, and a watery salad dressing. The chicken breast strips were deep-fried. The menu advertised seasonal salads! €16.80 was pretty steep for such a flavorless, cheap salad. We were disappointed with the food, despite the nice ambiance.

Super pleasant location, clean, friendly, attentive, suitable for the whole family. We visited three times in a row because it offered a good play area for my child.

Great ambiance and good food. The staff, especially Laura in the front office, were all very attentive and friendly. We'd love to come back.

- Delicious food - Great service - a lot of parking 🅿️ - book for party is possible because I see a lot of table - toilet is clean Beautiful decorations well done interior Recommend for family and group of friends Was enjoy the food and very big portions of pork

The food was okay. Unfortunately, not everyone can take orders, so the wait was incredibly long. Empty glasses were only cleared away upon request.

We were very satisfied with the service, the ambience and the food.

Delicious traditional German food with Bavarian flavors. The ambiance matches the perfect setting.

We had breakfast at the Dorf Alm and it was really great and we were full.

It was our first time there and we'd love to come back.❤ - many thanks to the entire team.

It was an absolute no-go that after arriving at 7 p.m., we couldn't order drinks and food for 15 minutes, and then had to wait another 45 minutes for our food, and then another 15 minutes to pay. While our table neighbors, who didn't have to wait nearly as long for their food as we did, didn't have to pay for their food at all (because they complained?), we had to pay the full amount (presumably only because we didn't complain). Apart from that, they could have announced at the beginning that it would take longer today due to a lack of staff. Or they could have adjusted the reservation size to suit the available staff. I made a reservation at pretty short notice and instead of being informed about the wait time, I simply received a confirmation.

Great food , very friendly staff

Sundays, 6:00 p.m., and of course with a seat reservation, which, according to the confirmation, is valid for 2 hours. But if there's still no food on the table after 1.5 hours, then it's okay to be annoyed... without, of course, becoming abusive. Finally, at 7:40 p.m.... FOOD! Oh... the notice "We serve customers with children first" is beyond ridiculous! One burger, two schnitzels with egg and fried potatoes, and for me, according to the menu, "tender spare ribs with BBQ sauce, coleslaw salad, and French fries" for a mere €24.50. Honestly: completely overpriced! The tender spare ribs consisted of ten bones, which were more or less tasty; the rest wasn't even worth mentioning. The fries were beyond "crunchy" and the maybe 20 grams of coleslaw were the joke. In the photo, this generous side salad is next to the fries in a kind of espresso cup, which was just half-filled with coleslaw. Even an amuse-bouche would have weighed more. In short: completely overpriced, because too small, "economy" ribs with traces of coleslaw and soggy fries. And you pay an extra euro for this small portion of mayo. But I have to get back to the service now, because that, at least, was remarkably good. In total, we saw three waiters and three cooks (or kitchen assistants), which inevitably led to a time chaos. After an hour, we were fobbed off with the message, "Your food is next," which, of course, wasn't true. After 90 minutes, I (jokingly) mentioned to a server that we only had 30 minutes left, but the food still wasn't there. "They would take care of it." A second waitress noticed this and came to our table to show genuine understanding, and we were rewarded for the wait after the meal. Ultimately, we could have had Kaiserschmarrn for four people, with a choice of coffee or a liqueur. Now that's what I call customer service! So... top-notch and friendly service... at least my spare ribs were a total disaster, both in terms of taste and price. Looking back, we've reviewed our meals two weeks later. If quality and price are interdependent—the better the quality, the higher the price—then you simply have to say: the price is simply too high for the quality of the four dishes. Soggy fried potatoes, almost burnt schnitzel, and a burger that was thrown together as unimaginatively as possible don't justify the prices on the menu. If quality and price are so far apart... we won't be returning.

Wer das Rustikale liebt, der ist hier gut aufgehoben. Bodenständige Küche (es hat allen gut geschmeckt), eine übersichtliche Speisekarte, für jeden etwas dabei und ein leckeres Essen in einer lockeren Athmosphäre. Nichts für einen Gourmet, aber wer Hausmannskost mag, der wird hier sehr zufrieden sein. Die Preise sind nicht abgehoben und animieren zum "Wiederkommen".

The outside area is pretty cool, Children's playground etc. Service was friendly, and everything seemed to be very organized and everything came in a good time, drinks were ok, Food was quite good, although the salad tasted more like peppers and less like sauce or salt, steak and fried potatoes were great. The citizen tasted rubbery like fat and pickled cucumbers, the coleslaw doesn't work at all, it tastes very bought and sweet. Dessert is great even though it is very expensive. Locations very clean and odor free. Finally: Eaten and drank, now you want to pay, no one comes out...

The food was delicious. The service was very friendly. I'd go again.

We're absolutely thrilled and would love to come back. The food was delicious. We received very courteous service. The ambiance is rustic and cozy. We felt very comfortable.

We love spending our Sundays at the Dorfalm. The staff are super attentive, the food is delicious and there are always great events that we can attend during the week.

Very nice place. The ladies serve first 👍. Delicious food and a wide selection of drinks. Reservations worked perfectly. Thank you.

I'm a bit annoyed. We went to the grill buffet yesterday for 24 euros per person. Why are all four people annoyed? Because the grill buffet had absolutely no choice of meat. There was only chicken, a small spicy Krakauer sausage, a regular bratwurst, neck steak, a grilled potato and salads. To be honest, for 24 euros and when a grill buffet offers BBQ, I expect more choice. And we didn't like the food. The chicken wasn't cooked through and the neck steak was pretty tough. Well, we've been disappointed twice now and won't be back. But the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is nice.

So we booked the grill buffet yesterday and it was a disgrace - one type of vegetable, two cold salads and the grilled chicken from outside wasn't cooked through. There were no chips or fried potatoes, which I find pretty cheeky considering the price is €24.50. Apart from the very friendly and courteous service, I can't recommend the Dorf Alm any more.

The food was, as always, delicious. The portions were very generous, and the ambiance is unique in this district. The only server in the restaurant made every effort to serve the guests promptly. I suspect it's due to the generally tense situation in the staffing market for restaurants that only one server was on site.

Simply fantastic! The ambiance is beautiful and inviting – you immediately feel at home here. The food is a delight every time: fresh, lovingly prepared, and delicious. This place is a real highlight, especially for families! Right next door is a large, modern indoor playground with everything a child's heart desires: a giant bouncy castle, many varied rides, and great play options for different age groups. For me, this is an all-around great place – I come here regularly and am always impressed. Highly recommended for families, gourmets, and anyone who wants to enjoy a relaxed meal while their children play safely and happily.

Located right next to a road, which I'm used to at other alpine huts, but sometimes it's just not possible. Nevertheless, it's very cozy, delicious, and the service is friendly. I highly recommend it, and we'll be back.

The burger was great, but unfortunately the dip for the sweet potato fries came late. Friendly staff. There's a playground for the kids in the building next door.

My girlfriend and I visited at 5 p.m. on a Sunday. You're shown to a seat from the entrance. The welcome was good, and our dog was also very welcome. The service team is young and energetic. They're always friendly and professionally trained. They cater to customer requests, and the food is served from the right place. The food was very good. There's a huge room for children with lots of play equipment. I highly recommend this dining experience and would gladly return.

I highly recommend this restaurant. You sit in a rustic atmosphere, almost like an alpine hut. There were four of us. Three of us really enjoyed the food...the fourth wasn't quite as impressed, but the portions were very generous and the service staff was super friendly. The price-performance ratio was absolutely fine.

We just wanted a quick beer, but the excellent service and food kept us there for almost five hours. Plus, there was a great menu and seasonal specials! We'll definitely be back!

I visited the Dorfalm for the first time today and was very disappointed. I don't eat meat, but they don't have any really good vegetarian dishes. I chose asparagus and potatoes; 2 out of 5 asparagus stalks were woody, and the potatoes tasted a bit odd. Personally, I find the tables very close together, which is a bit tiring, but maybe not so bad for others. The service staff are attentive and friendly. All in all, I wouldn't go back to this restaurant; there are definitely better quality options in Lippstadt.

Yes, very much, but it's best to reserve a table. Great house made entirely of wood.

We were there today by bike. The service was very friendly and the food was good.

We met up with our relatives there for our 40th birthday party. The lunchtime service, consisting of two people, made a genuine effort to accommodate everyone and everything. The meal for 44 adults and 11 children was delicious. We can highly recommend the restaurant for larger groups. The play barn is particularly worth mentioning; it's a dream for children to play in. This also gave the parents a little space to chat with the others. Many thanks to the entire team, and especially Ms. Bracht. We'd love to come back!

Super delicious and very friendly! You should reserve a table, though, because it gets really busy here.

Not only Bavarian dishes on the menu. Already very busy on a Sunday lunchtime. I was there at 12:30 p.m. and had to wait an hour for the food. Very friendly service, large dishes.

Highly recommended. I really enjoy going there, love the Bavarian atmosphere, and the food and drinks are always delicious.

A really nice atmosphere, the selection of dishes isn't exceptional, but everything is really delicious and freshly prepared. Very attentive service; I've rarely had such a positive experience.

Good food in a great rustic ambiance. Super friendly staff.

Hello, Unfortunately, the staff were dressed a bit sloppily: their polo shirts were fully unbuttoned and their white shoes were dirty. There was sticky dirt under my wife's chair. The railing to the restrooms on the upper floor was a bit sticky. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The wait time for the food to arrive was 45 minutes. The food was OK, but the price was too high.

A very nice, cozy restaurant. The ambience is very well-thought-out and inviting. The service is very friendly. For families with children (from 1.5-2 years old), there's a great highlight: an indoor and outdoor playground. The food tastes very good. However, it only gets 4 stars because there isn't much choice and some of the dishes aren't cooked perfectly. On my last visit, I had a salad with green asparagus "Asparagus meets Burrata" from the seasonal menu and was somewhat disappointed. The portion was quite large, but... The asparagus was overcooked and unfortunately tasted of nothing. I had hoped for more of the burrata (there was maybe 1/4 of the portion on the large plate), and the potato vinaigrette was unfortunately underseasoned. Overall, a delicious idea that unfortunately didn't work out. But we'll definitely be back.

Highly recommended. Great service, fast service, fantastic atmosphere, and free parking. I'll definitely be going there again.

If you love hearty food, you've come to the right place 👍

Nice location, good food Long wait times due to lack of staff

Hello. It was another lovely evening with you. The portions seem to have gotten 20% smaller. I'd rather spend an extra €5 somewhere else and be full again.

In any case, very courteous service, delicious food and great ambience

Hearty Alpine cuisine with generous portions. The service was a bit slow and inattentive. Overall, it was still a pleasant experience, and we had a good time.

Great location, very nice staff, very tasty 😋 snack, we will definitely come back.

Great atmosphere and Bavarian food. However, the menu isn't very extensive.

Essen war schmackhaft, der Ablauf verbesserungswürdig. Wir haben für ein Matjesfilet über 2 Stunden benötigt. Für ein einfaches Essen bemerkenswert.

I can't recommend schnitzel with mushrooms 🍄 and fried potatoes. The schnitzel is too fatty. Eating a chip shop. Potatoes weren't really warm and weren't cooked through. Nice service. Food just too expensive for the quality

Locale molto carino, tutto in legno, buon servizio e buona birra. Zuppa di asparagi davvero gustosa e wienerschnitzel al top!

Very nice atmosphere and the food is beautifully prepared. My pork knuckle was not only incredibly tasty but also so big that I could barely finish it. Clear recommendation from me👍🏼

The food was okay but the price was too high for the food. We had super nice and attentive service. The ambience and cleanliness were also good. There were four of us and we agreed that for the money we would have eaten equally, well and cheaper elsewhere.

Have been there several times. Always delicious... nice people who work there. See you soon.

Food was quite ok. Sit outside when the weather is nice. Interior Bavarian design.

Giant knuckle plus side dish would have been enough for two And really tasty!

I was there for the first time today and was very excited. The food is top. The service was very nice and you felt comfortable. The furnishings and decoration are very nice. Great atmosphere. I would be happy to go there again and would recommend it.

Fair prices for decent food in a nice atmosphere, you can't complain.

We were there with the whole family. The food (steak) was very good, the service was always friendly and good. It was a very cozy and beautiful evening

You can easily spend some time here. The atmosphere is rustic and quite comfortably furnished. The service is completely ok and friendly. The dishes on offer look very well prepared. All around everything good and recommended.

A pot of coffee and a piece of cake for 8.90 isn't exactly a bargain. Maybe give some of the money to the poster painter for a Bavarian course for beginners. Bajou goods are the original Bavarians and not what is written on the board at the beginning. Where it says Dorf Alm, it doesn't necessarily mean Dorfalm

Great catering offer including delicious lunch with a lunch menu. Perfect atmosphere and friendly service.

It was super tasty and there is a really nice atmosphere. I always enjoy going there, but what I find to be an absolute “no-go” is that every time we are more or less thrown out at least an hour before the stated closing time. It is now at least the fifth time that you sit there comfortably at half past eight to nine o'clock and they clean up around you and ask shortly after nine if they can collect money. I come from a customer service background and my motto is “The customer is king”. And unfortunately that's only the case until an hour before the end of the day. Otherwise highly recommended, but dear service you have to work on it.

Great restaurant ✔️ Rustic Bavarian decor, delicious food that comes quickly. Very friendly and courteous staff. Dogs and children are also looked after. Always worth a visit - keep it up 👍🏼

Very cozy restaurant! I can't say much about the food, as we've only had pretzels so far...but the service was very friendly, and our dog was welcome and given a bowl of water.

Always a pleasant atmosphere for a Sunday breakfast. It is advisable to reserve a table in advance. Friendly service!

Very nice service and the food was top👍

Honestly, when I make a stew it tastes the same and is well seasoned. The only good thing about my wife's dish were d fries. Too bad. The service is good and accommodating. I wanted to eat white sausage but that Unfortunately it wasn't on the map.

I can't confirm the negative reviews. I've been a guest here three times The atmosphere is very nice, the service is quick and not intrusive The food is good. Of course, it doesn't come close to Landhaus Günther in Horste. That is clear . But the food is really good Freshly and attractively prepared.

The food was very tasty. Since we got there pretty early, there wasn't much going on. Would love to go there again.
