Gasthaus Meding in Bad Fallingbostel

We spontaneously stopped there for lunch on our way to Hamburg and received a very warm welcome. The slightly longer wait was made more pleasant by the presence of the friendly staff member, Freddy. The staff were incredibly nice, and the food was excellent.

Very tasty and very friendly staff

Supervised parking. Great food. Well-behaved dog. Excellent restrooms. Everything was perfect. Highly recommended! 👌🏻

The food was delicious 😋 and the service was excellent. The owners are very friendly and I can wholeheartedly recommend it.

We received a warm welcome even though we were half an hour early. There was freshly tapped beer and the menu. The selection was excellent, finally some high-quality meat. We had Heidschnucke (a type of sheep) and schnitzel with chanterelles – absolutely delicious. Highly recommended in every respect.

I stumbled upon this gem by chance: all the Heidschnucken (heath sheep) dishes were excellent, and the schnitzel from the straw-fed pork was incredibly tasty. Very friendly service, pleasant atmosphere highly recommended!!!, especially since animal welfare is also a priority.

We stopped by this inn near the highway while passing through. You can tell the owners are involved in the service and the food. If we lived closer, we would be regulars...

We had a very good meal there. It was great that you get a separate sauce for your schnitzel, so the schnitzel wasn't already overpowered. The hunter's sauce tasted very good and wasn't overly thickened. The fried potatoes and mashed potatoes weren't pre-made. Overall, everything tasted very good. You can choose different portion sizes. The owners also put a lot of thought into the selection of dishes. The evening was very harmonious until the espresso (served with water). Thank you very much! The price was definitely reasonable!

The food was delicious. Even though it was busy, there was still room for me. The service was friendly and the food was delicious.

Delicious, freshly prepared food. Meat dishes from humanely raised animals. We were passing through and were pleasantly surprised!

I ate very well and felt very comfortable. Thank you very much.

Private party, my aunt's 85th birthday

Delicious food and friendly service. A quiet atmosphere.

In short: sensational! Freshly prepared, excellent quality. Attentive service, and from the very first minute, the feeling that I'm king here. By the way: dog-friendly and helpful, of course! A definite recommendation from Reisevani and me!

Gasthaus Meding is worth a visit, offering solid, high-quality regional cuisine, a rare find these days. The hosts are very friendly and attentive. Thank you for the hospitality; we'll be happy to come back!

Great, delicious, home-style food. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent food with great service. I had the Heidschnucken leg with croquettes and beans. Excellent quality, highly recommended! I'd love to eat here more often, but unfortunately it's too far from Stuttgart.

We stopped for lunch, great food, we had currywurst and schnitzel with chanterelles. We are passing through, chose this place because they had good reviews, and we are very happy with the choice. Friendly service. Nice atmosphere, fresh plants on the tables and in the windows. The dog "Ferry" gave a family feeling. It was clean and fresh.

Really good food, very friendly staff, we felt well advised regarding the food selection. Good value for money. We'd be happy to come back on our next vacation. We ate there again today, after a year, and we're still thrilled with the food, the friendliness, and the atmosphere. We'd love to go back next year.

There were three of us and we had a wonderful meal. The service was excellent and the chef was fantastic. We'll be back.

We ate at the Gasthaus Meding twice during our short break in the Lüneburg Heath. The two owners were super friendly, and the food was delicious! They cook with great, fresh products and, above all, with lots of love! And all at very reasonable prices.

Super delicious food, friendly staff. Sure, the ambiance is a bit dated. But whatever, the main thing was the food was like grandma's.

A quaint, very convivial inn, "Meding." The very attentive and hospitable team takes care of its guests hand in hand. Delicious food is the order of the day. Seating is available both inside and outside. Covered parking for motorcycles and cars. Thank you for the wonderful, delicious stop on my 🏍 tour.

What a fabulous place. Great food, lovely friendly owners and staff, and spotlessly clean. The local people are lucky to have such a lovely place on their doorstep.

We were passing through. Highly recommend this inn. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

Handmade cuisine of the highest quality. Fresh, local, absolutely affordable, personal service, and a lot of heart. You get everything you could want when you go out to eat. We thank you for a wonderful evening with an outstanding Heidschnucken ragout with beans, croquettes, and specially ordered chanterelle mushrooms. It was so delicious. Get off the highway and enjoy.

The service from the owners and staff is not just attentive, but extremely attentive and extremely friendly and competent.

Best currywurst in the Heidekreis!

It was great! Friendly and attentive service - delicious food, and a wonderful, peaceful time in the beer garden 🤩

We just stopped here for dinner with our two dogs. The food was good, and we didn't have to wait long. Thanks to the very friendly host, we got a great tip for our return journey. This allowed us to enjoy a delicious meal and round off our hike with a lovely return walk through the forest.

A lovely German inn with excellent food and attentive service. We were truly satisfied throughout.

The food is very tasty, with a wide selection on the menu, so there's something for everyone. The quantity is also very generous. The value for money is definitely good here.

We both had schnitzel. One with fresh chanterelles and the other with Balkan sauce. It came with a fresh side salad. The food was, as always, top-notch!

We stopped here after a trip to the heath. I have to say, I always enjoyed the food back then, but it's even better now. The menu is truly varied and offers something for everyone. The schnitzel with chanterelles and the char fillet were absolutely delicious—I definitely recommend them!

Delicious food at reasonable prices. The online menu isn't up-to-date regarding prices.

Super friendly and everything fresh!

Friendly and delicious. Fresh and nothing pre-made.

This cozy gasthaus is highly recommended. A perfect stop, just 2 minutes from the highway. We enjoyed a delicious dinner. great service. Gasthaus Meding is located in a small town, so if you need to stretch your legs after the drive or do some shopping for the trip, this is also possible. We will be back.

We enjoy eating out and eating well, but this was a heavenly experience. We haven't eaten as well as we did here in a long time. Food selection and service are top-notch! Highly recommended. Rustic restaurant with attention to detail. All side dishes are served separately and not carelessly thrown together on one plate. TOP TOP TOP

Excellent, down-to-earth cuisine in a pleasant atmosphere. We sat outside and received good advice from the chef. We'd be happy to come back.

Yes, very friendly service. Good food. I'd be happy to come back.

Absolutely great place. Leaves nothing to be desired and the landlady is very friendly and helpful. TOP

We stopped in as walk-ins, looking for a break after a long drive. Excellent service, extensive menu, truly exceptional food, no frills, German. You rarely find something like this these days. Locally sourced meat. Everything lovingly arranged: sauce in a gravy boat, side dishes also available separately. Dogs were also allowed inside. Highly recommended.

Four of us went there for an asparagus dinner and were completely satisfied. From the quality of the food, the friendliness and humor of the staff, to the very clean restrooms, everything was wonderful!

Great! We'd love to come back! Everyone is super nice and helpful! Every guest is taken care of here! The food was amazing! ❤️

Nice staff...good, tasty food. We were very satisfied.

We can only recommend the restaurant, it was very tasty.

Very friendly environment, food was good, home-style.

A quaint restaurant with great hosts who serve with humor yet professionally. Delicious seasonal food. We'd love to come back!

Fantastic food made from high-quality ingredients, friendly and competent service

We registered with a large group at relatively short notice. Very friendly contact, great food, friendly staff. Everything perfect. Can really recommend. And we would love to come back...

Hospitality for two- and four-legged friends is very important here. We discovered this wonderful inn with an excellent, familiar and friendly atmosphere by chance while passing through. Now we always like to stop by when we are passing through and really appreciate the warm, courteous and professional service. The food is delicious and full of seasonal delicacies (perfect asparagus!) - vegetarians are also welcome here. We are already looking forward to the next visit and definitely want to try the kale in winter. Thank you dear Meding family and team for this warm hospitality 😊!

We were there with the family and had a wonderful, cozy evening. The food tastes excellent, the service is friendly, fast and courteous and the atmosphere is cozy and familiar. Particularly noteworthy is the child-friendliness of the owners and staff.

This was a chance visit that we really enjoyed. Extremely friendly, good food with large portions and the service has definitely been learned. Absolute recommendation!

As tourists we chose this restaurant. We have no regrets – the food was delicious and the service was friendly. Only one of the owner friends was a bit loud, which made it difficult to concentrate on tasting the food. Overall, we recommend it!

Incredibly delicious food, all regional and of the best quality. Always my pleasure.

Nice place, classic restaurant service very nice and not in your face. Definitely come back.

Great food!!! Mega owner and employees 😁

Been aware of the good reviews that are confirmed... good German cuisine... from burgers Flammkuchen to Heidschnucken dishes, something for everyone... price-performance ratio is appropriate

It is not surprising that the Meding inn is very popular and often fully booked. The cuisine is home-style in the best sense of the word, the dishes are varied and very, very tasty! As a guest you feel very welcome and are pleasantly pampered by the attentive people who work there.

Four of us were traveling from the coast to the south and were looking for a place for lunch. It may take 2 minutes longer to drive from the motorway than it takes to get to the truck stop, but in terms of cuisine there is a world of difference. We had Heidschnucken Sülze, Heidschnucken Keule and Heidschnucken Knipp, as well as straw pig medallions. Everything is of the best quality, large portions and delicious! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, despite there being a large group in the next room and different groups of guests at the same time, shortly before closing time. And it happened quickly. Why should one accept the monotony of deep fryers on the highway when such wonderful food is offered in such a hospitable manner with such a small detour? Especially since it was hardly more expensive than in most truck stops. Gladly again at any time!

Last week we were at the Gasthaus Meding. We ate an excellent goose with four people, which was spontaneously prepared for us with a lot of love. We can only give five stars. We would give the chef the sixth star and the service was also worth six stars. We'll be back. Highly recommended.

Goose dinner with 4 people. Nice atmosphere, very attentive service, excellent food. A perfect evening. If I didn't live 200km away, I would come here more often.

Really great food with good advice. Meat and fish extremely fresh. This will be our new favorite restaurant!

We were hungry on the way home and didn't want to stop at a rest stop. So we googled nearby restaurants. This was suggested to us. We were thrilled, friendly and fast service. Delicious, regional food. We had a burger (super tasty bun) and schnitzel. If it were closer to where we live, we would come by regularly.

Good service, good food - a bit too expensive in my opinion

The best schnitzel we have ever eaten. So good that we came here two days in a row :) We can also definitely recommend the side salad and the pear Helene with home-cooked pears from the village.

Went there to go bowling and were also entertained. Prices fair. Friendly service.

Beer and food break at the Krämermarkt break

Classic describes everything best. Really nice and attentive conditions. Food is absolutely fine even for vegetarians.

Super tasty and sustainably farmed on the way to Hamburg. Absolutely friendly - attentive and the icing on the cake, particularly delicious wines from home! Unconditionally recommended!

I can only recommend the Gasthaus Meding. A very nice and courteous team. The food is great and, above all, it comes from the region 👍🏼

Delicious, freshly prepared regional food with a rustic atmosphere. Very nice and courteous staff and chef! Can only be recommended!

Very tasty, very friendly, we would love to come back.

Very, very friendly owners and good food

The food was very tasty, just a little more could have been for the money.

Vi stannade i denna lilla by på väg från Österrike till Sverige och valde att inte äta på pensionatet. Vi valde istället restaurangen i byn drygt 500 m från övernattningen. Detta visade sig vara en bra restaurang med trevlig personal. Här serveras mycket tyskt. Vi valde Flammkuchen som var riktigt god och väldigt tunn. Vi tog också in grönsallad. Detta ställe rekommenderas om man är i krokarna.

Very child friendly, very nice (slightly confused) very attentive service. Excellent fresh and regional food. Unfortunately, the interior design has not yet managed the step or the balancing act between modern and traditional and is slightly stuck in the past. Top price-performance We'll definitely come back.

Overpriced food and drinks at a major event. It completely overwhelms the staff and far too few for the many guests. Absolutely haphazard work processes, long waiting times... But the young women were innocent of the situation, there was simply a lack of staff and a coherent plan. Not necessarily recommended.

We spontaneously went here for dinner on Sunday. Everything was great. Nice service, good food at fair prices, a nice inn that I can only recommend. We'll definitely come back.

The prices are way too high. For a pot of coffee 4.60 euros, that's not possible.

Very friendly and very tasty. There could be more beef/poultry and vegetarian options.

Very nice inn, large selection - also for vegetarians. Dog friendly. Top!

The schnitzel with chanterelles from the seasonal menu was very good, but the salad that went with it was a bit “carelessly and unimaginatively” prepared. The atmosphere on the terrace is very good and the service is top notch.

Very tasty food. We ate schnitzel with chanterelles and fries.

Very pleasant atmosphere and great staff. I definitely recommend the currywurst with the various curry spices called “Scharfe Kist”.

A cozy restaurant with German cuisine, very nice service, good menu. Had the Jägerschnitzel Jäger style with chanterelle sauce in a normal portion. A very good portion, if you prefer a starter you should choose the small portion as your main course. 🌟👍. Here’s to visiting again.

By switching to species-appropriate animal husbandry, the food tastes even better and is very fresh. The restaurant has made great strides. Keep it up!!!

All food is freshly prepared and very tasty. Even the croquettes seem to be homemade. Schnitzels are freshly breaded. Mashed potatoes were very tasty. Burger Paddy definitely freshly made from scratch. Homemade fish fingers from catfish. Lots of regional ingredients. A dream. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Even the chef came to the table shortly after serving and asked if everything was okay. For us it was a break on the motorway that was very worth it. Ambience is a rustic clubhouse. A little pearl along the highway.

Super tasty dishes, not an overly extensive menu, but extremely tasty and freshly prepared. Competent and friendly service. Definitely coming back.

Very tasty food. Great service and friendly staff.

Very quiet location, the food was fantastic!

We had dinner at the Meding Inn. Here you can find the right food for every taste. The quantity and quality of the food were very good. Thank you also for the friendly service! Everything fine!

Super nice service and the Heidschnucken goulash and also the schnitzel were so delicious with the freshest croquettes we have ever eaten. It's a shame that the German restaurants are disappearing more and more... cheers for the good old German cuisine... keep it up...

Super child-friendly, very tasty food, staff incredibly attentive, patient and kind. And in addition to the food ordered, a plate was prepared for the children, which was not charged for. Thank you very much. :)

Super nice people! Great food and fair prices, can only be recommended.

Very nice restaurant and very friendly service, everything seems to be top. The meal was pork schnitzel with chanterelles in cream sauce and with fries for €23.50, although the cream sauce was unfortunately not a delicious cream sauce, rather a rather watery, thin sauce. Straw turkey would have been possible for + €2.50. There was a salad and overall I really liked it, especially the peace and quiet on the terrace...

Easy to reach from the motorway, nice beer garden, delicious food, very friendly service

Fantastic place, we had to find a place to eat for the evening, we called at short notice and informed that we were 8 people on our way, when we arrived there was a table set up for all of us, in addition to German, the host also spoke good English . We drove away full and found that we had one of the best schnitzels... Ever. The host introduced our children to "Sailor's Solitaire" it was very entertaining and his hosting was exceptional. The place holds a lot of history.

Food is really good, we had four different dishes and were all very satisfied. You should definitely try Heideschnucke. Friday evening, all tables full, pure stress for the staff but always friendly and always willing to listen to the customer. This is how you imagine perfect service.
