Kirchberghäuschen in Bensheim

Beautiful view, nice hike on the way app and ambience with the nature was refreshing.

The restaurant has a magnificent location on top of a hill, it is surrounded by vineyards and has a magnificent view of the city! The restaurant offers you typical German food that you can eat inside and outside its facilities. Get ready for a good walk of your life to get to the restaurant!

A great family-run restaurant. Thank you for your incredible effort! Everyone is always friendly and helpful. When we are free you are always there for us and we can enjoy the wonderful view of the Bergstrasse with Hessian specialties. Thank you so much to all of you!

Whenever I'm back in Bensheim, I go up to the Kirchberghäuschen 😃.

Anyone who lives or is on vacation in the Bergstrasse area should visit the Kirchberghäuschen! The view is a dream in every season and invites you to linger. Unfortunately, on weekends and especially on sunny days, you have to fight for a seat here. However, the service staff outside has good coordination so you usually don't have to wait longer than 20 minutes. The food is OK, the prices are of course correspondingly high due to the fantastic view, which you can already imagine given the location. The cook at the food pick-up point has often been so annoyed, but you can easily counter him with flippant sayings that he can tolerate. I visit the Kirchberghäuschen at least once a year.

Simply beautiful there! Extremely crowded when the weather is nice...

Favorite place in Bensheim. Great view 😃

Beautiful excursion restaurant with a great outdoor area, with a view of the kitchen! Unfortunately I didn't have time to eat anything, so no rating for that. However, coffee was fresh, delicious and the service was very nice

Great view and great wine. Currently recommended: Red Riesling from Kirchberg

Incredibly unfriendly service! Also ruins the ambience. Bad mood afterwards!

Expensive for self-service, but nice

Very nice restaurant, drinks staff, super nice, unfortunately a bit rough when it comes to serving food. Otherwise perfect for families.

Very nice location in every season

Nice viewpoint in the vineyards. In the Kirchberghäuschen there are a few dishes (e.g. various schnitzels and Kaiserschmarrn) and drinks can be picked up at the counter/food counter. There are plenty of seats outside, but they fill up quickly when the weather is good. Small playground for the little ones. Neat and clean outdoor toilets.

The Kirchberghäuschen is a beautiful, idyllic excursion restaurant with a wide view over the Odenwald, Bergstrasse and the Rhine plain. Easily reachable on foot from Bensheim or Schönberg in 20 minutes. We come here regularly from Weinheim and enjoy the uniquely beautiful view with delicious Kirchbergriesling. The staff is always friendly and in a good mood. I can't say much about the food since we only eat fries every time, but they are excellent! The Kirchberghäuschen is my absolute favorite place between Darmstadt and Heidelberg!!

Very disappointing visit to Kirchberg yesterday. The staff was listless and unfriendly, and unfortunately the food was extremely bad. What's a Mixed Pickles doing on a Handkäs with music? The boiled cheese schnitzel was totally hard and there were also mixed pickles on the potato salad. The fries and the naturally cloudy apple juice, on the other hand, were a positive surprise. Price/performance is a disgrace! I remember this place with charm from earlier times. It now resembles an outdated snack bar with mass processing. It's self-service but the items are cleared away without asking or saying anything. You don't feel welcome in any way. Even the grubby seat cushions that are handed to you upon arrival don't come off. We won't be eating here anymore, but we'll be happy to enjoy the wonderful view with a glass of apple juice or Bergstrasse wine. It still remains and is the only reason to stop here.

Simply the most beautiful view in the Bensheim vineyards!

Very pleasant and beautiful place with great views

A very nice place! If you're good on foot, you can get up here from the city in 15-20 minutes. The view is wonderful. You sit at rustic wooden tables under the trees. There is self-service. The service staff are all very friendly and helpful. I can recommend the Pinot Gris.

A really beautiful place to eat. The employees were very nice and the food is usually very tasty. You have a really nice view of Bensheim and the surrounding area and in general I always thought it was nice to eat there

Were just there for something to drink. Great view 👍😊

Really enjoyable authentic Bergstr. Beer garden/restaurant with relaxed, friendly locals. Top weinschörle and schnitzel plus local dishes, and some vegetarian dishes. One must take a very scenic walk through the vineyards to the top. Takes about 20 mins from edge of Stadtpark Bensheim. Well worth it for the view and the food.

Delicious food. There is only self-service here. Beautiful location with fantastic views. Fries with cooked cheese and onions are recommended.

The climb from Bensem is short but crisp, the reward: magnificent panorama, cold beer and a good time...

I like to come here every now and then to hike, relax and enjoy with friends or family....just a beautiful view and a beer.....what more could you want

A great place to stop after a hike. Children's playground. Shady outdoor seating with a wonderful view over the Bergstrasse to the Ried and further to Ludwigshafen. Good menu and drinks. Great Riesling. Happy to go back again and again.

I like to combine hikes on the mountain road with a stop/rest at the Kirchberghäuschen. The absolute unique selling points are the opening times (open daily!!!) and the location in the vineyards with a great view. The service team is pleasantly friendly and the Kaiserschmarrn tastes good too!

The view and ambience can't be beat. However, the price/performance ratio no longer fits at all!

Beautiful view. There is also good beer and something to eat, what more could you want?

Nice place. Despite self-service, you can quickly find your way around. Only the prices for some dishes are a bit too high. E.g. bread with butter. Otherwise, gladly again.

Very nice view and down-to-earth cakes which are good.

Highly efficient tourist excursion location. Well frequented and still manageable waiting times. Food classic and good.

As always, the Kirchberghäuschen is a place with a fantastic view. The cooked cheese is very good, unfortunately the bread served with it was not fresh. The currywurst was good, the fries were quite firm - but at least not greasy. Unfortunately, the prices quoted are quite high (e.g. currywurst with fries €9.50). Unfortunately the coffee was not for coffee lovers. The outside service must be praised, as it ensures order and a tidy ambience very well.

The location is nice, but the food is almost outrageously expensive. A bit of cooked cheese with two slices of bread costs €10, as does a piece of hand cheese. There was no hot food because the kitchen was closed at 6 p.m

Reasonable prices. Nice staff everywhere seat cushions. Great view over the region.

A real insider tip. Rustic atmosphere with friendly, fun staff. The path to the Kirchberghäuschen through the vineyards alone is worth experiencing.

A dream comes awake! Real insider tip! Preferably experience it in person!!!

We have been there countless times and always enjoy the wonderful ambience. This time, however, we noticed how expensive everything had become. 7 EUR for a 0.4 liter wine spritzer is quite steep for self-service. Unfortunately, the prices for food and quantity no longer match at all.

After a long time up here again... Always nice... Good service, nice people. Delicious small dishes too... Top view.

Beautiful place with great views

Wonderful view. A great place to relax.

Nice, clean restaurant that of course impresses with its view. Will definitely come back again.

A great place for a cozy stop after a nice walk. Delicious food. Super friendly service and a fantastic view over Bensheim.

A nice place to stop for a break with a great view and friendly staff

A place to go in Bensheim for as long as I can remember. A beautiful outdoor area under old trees and a fantastic view reward the walker for the climb. And since the Bulling family has taken over the culinary scepter, that too has been a pleasure. Despite self service, it's worth a trip.

Great location with a very nice view over Bensheim and very good food. Since friendly service staff already help with seating guests, they could also be used to eliminate self-service, which would also be better suited to the prices.

A beautiful place with a fantastic view. One of my favorite types.

A place to enjoy the beautiful view. The food is fairly priced in the self-service fast food category. Staff really nice. After a hike you should treat yourself to a break there.

The staff is very unfriendly and the food is a disaster I would just go there to see the view.

Very nice view a very tasty meal and quick food

A must-see, the best view over the Rhine-Neckar region. Great shady beer garden, perfect for switching off and forgetting about everyday life. Here you sit above things... unfortunately the cooked cheese schnitzel is no longer what it used to be. It was once legendary, the best in the area...

Great location with a view of Bensheim in the middle of the vineyards... great... 😊

Very nice view and good food, large beer garden. Nice and quick service. We would be happy to come back.

Beautiful location on the mountain with a view of the Rhine plain.

Absolutely amazing place! You have to fight a bit to get there, but it's worth the effort. Great views and a suitably relaxed atmosphere.

Great, small regional dishes in a rustic atmosphere. The dishes are extremely tasty, but what impresses most about the Kirchberghäuschen is its fantastic location. It was also nice that a good, big live band played nice music despite the weather.

Unfortunately, the price-performance ratio doesn't fit for the price. There could be more on the plate. The bratwurst didn't particularly appeal to us either. The wild goulash soup was very tasty.

An extraordinary, romantic excursion destination. It's worth going up the mountain. Beautiful view. Very friendly service, delicious simple food, very cozy

Very good, home-style food at reasonable prices. View wonderful! Always my pleasure

Nice place to visit. However, you should bring your time because there are quite a few people there, so it's nice but not an insider tip.

The Kirchberghäuschen in Bensheim offers a breathtaking view of the city and the Rhine plain from its terrace. After a steep climb through the vineyards, you will be rewarded with a cozy and rustically furnished rest area. The regional cooked cheese with onions and farmer's bread is particularly delicious. Despite self-service, the prices are a bit high. The staff is friendly and helpful, and cleanliness is guaranteed throughout. A popular stop during the vineyard hike.

Excellent cottage with live music. Rarely have I had so much fun. The band LOL was great and everyone was in a good mood!

Nice spot. Schnitzel not classic, rather thick piece of meat, but overall rich and very tasty. Atmosphere nice. Small playground nearby. Only accessible on foot after about 15 minutes from the nearby parking lot. Attention: It's quite steep uphill and you should be able to walk reasonably well.

Wonderful place with great panorama.

Long waiting time to get food or drinks

Always great! Great view, nice location, regional food and drink, what more could you want.

Great place to stop, good food for hikers. But totally overcrowded on weekends. Tip: Take half a day off and see if the flag is hanging out (you can see it from Bergstrasse). And have a nice afternoon 😊

Self service but nice. Prices ok, food great. Ambience cozy and a bit outdated.

Nice place with a super great view.🫶🏻 Steep climb if you want to walk up from Bensheim. The cooked cheese with onions and farmer's bread was a real treat! 😊 Very nice and helpful staff. 👍🏻

Beautiful restaurant with a wonderful view of the entire area! The food is acceptable.

The view is very nice if you get a seat, we were lucky but you can also sit at a large table

Great view, perfect rest during a hike.

We have known the Kirchberghäuschen for many years. It used to be just a nice garden restaurant with a view over Bensheim and a manageable menu. A bit provisional at times, but that's why it's somehow likeable. For a few years now (new tenant?) it has become a sales machine: Even the two sawn-off tree trunks directly below the restaurant have been removed so that no hiker comes up with the idea of ​​sitting there and possibly eating their own provisions. On the viewing bench right next to it there is also a sign informing you that you are still on the territory of the inn (which means: just sitting down and biting into your own bread is not welcome here). The service staff is also trained (or should we say "trained") to check whether one or two of them eat their own food on the bench: there is a risk of being expelled. The only thing missing is that as a walker you have to pay tolls if you simply want or have to cross the grounds of the garden restaurant in order to get back on the hiking trail to Bensheim.

At the top with a great view. Delicious food

Nice place to visit after a hike through the princely camp and the surrounding area. Very attentive staff. Local dishes such as hand cheese, cooked cheese or schnitzel.

Today was the first time we were dissatisfied after more than 20 years. Unfortunately, the pricing is not family-friendly. Also the dishes served, bread was boring, cooked cheese and hand cheese, well. The fries, on the other hand, were great as always.

Was there today! Nice ambience! Apple cider was delicious! The man at the food counter seemed annoyed and rude! Ordered cooking cheese with music. But got wallpaper paste with stale bread. Not recommendable!

Barn view but a little more expensive.

Beautiful destination. Nice and friendly service. On the one hand, the food was very expensive (hand cheese €9), but on the other hand, the quality was subpar: the Kochkässchnitzel was a pre-made wholesale market product, potato salad in a watery sauce. Currywurst like in the snack bar. It's a shame. Cake looked good.

Great service, quick process, food also tastes very good and then this magnificent view!...you can also pay 2 euros more!

It's great that the Kirchberghäuschen is also open during the week and in winter when the weather is nice! So I was able to take a break here on a sunny afternoon in February and even got a delicious meal! The innkeepers were super friendly and very professional; You can tell that they enjoy their job and the mood among the entire staff was correspondingly good. Always a worthwhile destination, not to mention the fantastic view.

Delicious wine (especially cherry), very good food, nice service, beautiful view!

Beautiful view with a good wine and friendly staff 😉👍🏻

It's always beautiful here. Nice staff, nice guests, great view

Great attendance in brilliant weather. Despite the large crowds and long queues for catering, the waiting time was relatively short.

There is a great hiking trail from the Fürstenlager (Bensheim/Auerbach) to the Kirchberghäuschen. There you can reward yourself with good food and better drinks. The view when the weather is nice is a dream.

It was very nice with you, and you are a really lovely and attentive team. I'd love to come back 👍🏼

Ein Schöner Platz mit Schöner Aussicht und was zu essen.

Ich hatte eine sehr unangenehme Erfahrung, als ich in Bensheim auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt das Kirchberghäuschen am Marktbrunnen besucht habe. Am 21.12.2023 ca. 14:00 Uhr wurde ich MEHRFACH mit rassistischen, primitiven, geschmacklosen und ohne intellektuellen Anspruch auf die widerwärtigste Art persönlich durch den Inhaber bzw. Geschäftsführer beleidigt. (4 Zeugen vor Ort). Als Inhaber bzw. Geschäftsführer sind Sie den Ethikrichtlinien und Verhaltenskodizes nicht mächtig! Wurst/Glühwein nicht der Rede wert, in Ordnung. In einem allgemeineren Sinne wird der Begriff "Vorsatz" manchmal verwendet, dass eine Person bewusst und absichtlich handelt, um ein bestimmtes Ergebnis zu erreichen oder eine Handlung auszuführen, von der sie weiß, dass sie rechtswidrig ist. "Der HERR segne dich und behüte dich. Der HERR lasse sein Angesicht leuchten über dir und sei dir gnädig“"Und so leuchtet die Welt langsam der Weihnacht entgegen, und der in Händen sie hält, weiß um den Segen.“ Zur Info meine Vorfahren: Das antike Griechenland(ca. 800 v. Chr.) hat die Entwicklung der europäischen Zivilisation maßgeblich geprägt. Fundamentale und überdauernde Bereiche der Politik, Philosophie, Demokratie, Mathematik, Physik.

Sehr schöne Aussicht. Guter Service.

Meiner Tochter fiel vor ein paar Wochen ihre Lieblingstasse auf den Boden. Es war eine Tasse vom Kirchberghäuschen, die man leider nicht mehr kaufen kann. Ich telefonierte mit Herrn Bulling, der direkt am nächsten Tag das Lager durchsuchte und zwei dieser Tassen fand. Ihre Augen hätten nicht größer strahlen können, als sie ein paar Tage später nach einem wunderschönen Spaziergang zum Kirchberghäuschen ihre Tassen überreicht bekam. Vielen, vielen Dank lieber Herr Bulling, dass Sie meiner Tochter die Tassen geschenkt haben.

Beautiful place to enjoy a beautiful view, good wine and other drinks and ofcourse great local specialties after a nice walk through the beautiful area.

Sehr schöne Aussicht. Hier kann die Aussicht sehr schön genossen werden. Leider schmeckt der Kaffee überhaupt nicht...

Gutes Essen, nette Mitarbeiter und schöne Aussicht. Was will man mehr!

Tolles kleines Restaurant auf dem Weinberg mit Blick über Bensheim. Bei warmen Wetter herrscht hier Hochbetrieb.

Immer wieder schön, dort zu sein

Wunderbare Aussicht. Die Gegend ist für Wandern und Mountain bikes ein Traum

Schöner und gut bekannter Ort. Leider ist die Beflaggung um zu sehen, ob geöffnet ist, nicht mehr aktiv. Ich bin von dem Betreiber sehr deutlich angegangen worden, dass man ja anrufen kann. Die Qualität der Speisen ist nach wie vor top .

Ich nehme die Bänke in Kauf fuer den Ausblick Richtung Pfälzer Berge..

Schöner Ort zum Verweilen mit einer überragenden Aussicht und schönen wegen zum wandern um einen herum.
