Overkamp in Dortmund

We've eaten there several times, and it's always an experience. Excellent cuisine, attentive staff, and a fantastic selection of cakes. Beautiful and stylish rooms; you feel completely at home. Unfortunately, I can't rate the hotel, but I think it's just as top-notch as everything else.

We attended a very nice celebration. The staff was very attentive, and our glasses never stayed empty for long, even though several other celebrations were taking place in the house. The food was plentiful and veeerrrryyyyy delicious. We'll be back.

A traditional restaurant with delicious food. Large portions. Friendly service.

Anyone who wants to experience what good dining is all about should go to Overkamp. Incredibly busy, with countless parties and even more à la carte guests, and yet: impeccable service, impeccable friendliness, and all the dishes perfectly cooked. You rarely experience so much professionalism all at once these days. Old school, but not outdated. Huge compliment!

Friendly staff and a very good breakfast.

A place for true connoisseurs! 🍷✨ I've been to the Overkamp restaurant several times – both for conferences and privately – and I've been impressed every time. The kitchen offers culinary masterpieces that impress not only in terms of taste but also in appearance. 🍽️🌟 I'd especially like to highlight the service: warm, professional, and always attentive. 💐🤝 Even special requests are always fulfilled with a smile, which makes the stay even more special. 🙏💎 For me, Overkamp is a perfect combination of fine cuisine, outstanding service, and a stylish ambiance. 🥂🌿 An absolute favorite restaurant that I wholeheartedly recommend. ❤️

The Overkamp family does everything right. Great hospitality. Highly recommended!

Delicious food, friendly, attentive staff, and a great outdoor ambiance.

Didn't stay overnight! Food, location, and staff were top-notch!

Top food, top menu, very pleasant atmosphere - we felt very comfortable

Meine Familie und ich waren jetzt schon mehrmals im Hause Overkamp zum Gänseessen und wir haben uns dort sehr wohlgefühlt. Der Service, welcher für uns zuständig war, hat uns flott und freundlich bedient. Es wäre schön, wenn man die Gänsebrust bekommen hätte, die beim Service bestellt wurde. Zumal der Service gefragt hat, was man gerne möchte. Keine Frage, eine Gans besteht nicht nur aus Brust, sondern auch aus Keule. Es wäre trotzallem schön, wenn man darüber informiert würde, wenn etwas nicht mehr vorliegt und nicht serviert werden kann. Vielleicht sollte der Service etwas mehr mit der Küche kommunizieren bzw. andersherum.

Great space. The selection of cakes is huge. The food is prepared to a high standard. The dessert is a dream.

Fine and delicious cuisine, the staff is exceptionally friendly IMMOKAI - Your real estate partner

The staff greeted me warmly and seated me right away, even though it was quite busy. The food was fresh and flavorful, with generous portions. The interior felt cozy, and the background music was relaxing. Prices were fair for the quality, and the location is easy to reach by public transport. I would happily come back again!"

Delicious food, pleasant atmosphere,

Upscale ambience with very good food

Good staff Good food Restroom facilities renovated, new sink

We were there for dinner last Sunday and sat in the lovely garden. The food and drinks are on the higher side, but we enjoyed it! Our female server deserves special mention! Such a friendly and charming personality is rare in the restaurant industry these days. We were absolutely thrilled with the service and warmth! If the Overkamp management reads the reviews here... We were seated at table 203. Dear management, just a tip: "Service staff like that should be treated with respect."

We went to the restaurant. The food was delicious, the service was very friendly.

Here, great importance is placed on regional products, which are reflected in a well-stocked menu.

Always good...service and kitchen with well-trained staff...very nice

My family has been going to this restaurant for 50 years, and we've generally had good meals and celebrated other occasions there. However, our last few visits were disappointing. The service is still the best, and the decor is still from the 80s. But the prices are definitely not commensurate with the quality of the food. A 220g fillet with a side salad and fries now costs €49.95. This is completely out of proportion to the retail price, and you can get a good fillet steak with the same side dishes elsewhere for at least €10-15 less. If you're also annoyed about the quality of some of the dishes, you'll leave the restaurant €300 poorer and disappointed. Honestly, I can only interpret the many good reviews here as a sign that the bad ones are being removed.

Top food, top service, best beer

Highly recommended, everything freshly prepared, great service and still very good value for money

My unconditional recommendation. Great food and great service, not to mention the ambiance. The prices are very reasonable, not too expensive for the service.

We celebrated our wedding there at the end of June with our closest friends and we were absolutely thrilled! During the preliminary meeting, all of our wishes were taken into account and the perfect suggestions were made. The Italian menu we chose was delicious. Our guests were also thrilled. The friendly waitress took great care of us and our guests that day! What was particularly positive was that she was child-friendly and let our little guest go first with the food. Afterwards, he was allowed to go into the kitchen and choose an ice cream. When we had questions about the dishes, she was able to explain everything clearly, what was in them and where it came from. The products are locally sourced and freshly prepared. They also pay attention to sustainability. Nothing is thrown away! We can definitely recommend the restaurant and will be back! Many thanks to the entire team!

Very nice location, very good wine, very good service...everything was very harmonious.

Excellent food, very attentive service Good parking

Somehow, the atmosphere and quality aren't developing in the right direction. It's a shame, things used to be different.

Simply delicious 😋 Very attentive and friendly service! Pleasant atmosphere! Good quality products and excellent preparation! We'll be back!

Today at Overkamp was a disaster. As long-time guests who have hosted many family celebrations there and have always been very satisfied, nothing worked today. The service was extremely unreliable, and there were long waits. A pot of coffee outside for €4.95 barely contained a cup. After a long wait and a complaint, an ice cream sundae was served that contained only melted liquid, as the service was apparently not attentive enough to serve dessert in a timely manner. Although a replacement was delivered, we weren't entirely satisfied.

Great hotel! Highly recommended.

A very nice restaurant. You can also dine outside, especially when the weather is nice. Good, plentiful food, and friendly service.

Great food, very friendly staff, we go there every chance we get.

I highly recommend this restaurant. It might be a little more expensive than average, but it's worth it. If you're watching your figure, just stop by the cake counter—it's worth the sin!

If you're coming to Dortmund and want guaranteed good food with the best service, you simply have to go to Overkamp! I enjoy eating out in restaurants often, at least every Sunday. It's been a family tradition for three generations, and since then, Overkamp has been a regular companion and, occasionally, a rock for me. I can't remember how many times I've been there, but I can say with certainty that in 30 years, I've never been disappointed. If you want good service and satisfied guests, you can celebrate your birthday or company anniversary here, or use the first-class catering service, including staff if desired. The latter, by the way, has remained largely the same over the years, which shows that the team works well. Most of the faces there are part of the furniture. During the coronavirus pandemic, people regularly expressed their heartfelt thanks for continuing to support the restaurant. This was at a time when no one knew how long in-house operations would be impossible. - Today, Overkamp is once again well attended by everyone, from young to old, and the food is of the highest quality. When I visit with my young children, the seating is carefully selected so that we don't disturb anyone, and sometimes a separate room was even opened for us, where the children could sit on the carpet until the food arrived. Of course, this is only possible on the rare occasions when it's less busy. It's definitely worth making a reservation in advance by phone! I love going to Overkamp with my family or business partners because you can simply rely on everyone finding something to suit them and going home happy. My favorites are "Cordon Bleu," "Wiener Schnitzel," "Krüstken," "Wickeder Forelle," "Grünes Schüsselken," and sometimes the "Fitnessteller." If you're looking for something to accompany your coffee and cake in the afternoon, you'll find it at the lavish cake counter and can then take a short walk in the adjacent forest. – If you honestly ask people in Dortmund where they can find the best service in a restaurant and where they get the impression that the staff is still passionate about their work, the name Overkamp will definitely come up, you can be sure of that! I live in Berlin half the year and travel a lot for business. Therefore, I know that, especially in Berlin, there are many "trendy" restaurants that need to be created to generate some kind of hype, which then fizzles out at some point or is only artificially kept alive. Fortunately, the Overkamp family business doesn't need that kind of thing and has remained down-to-earth for years. I only know of two restaurants in Berlin that can match this level of service and quality. What the Overkamp family achieves every day is simply incredible! It makes me truly proud that there is such a restaurant in my hometown.

Hello dear team! We have been guests at your restaurant several times and have always been satisfied. This time, however, it was different. The food was okay, but no longer a highlight. The bread listed on the menu for the tomato soup was not served, and the coffee with the cake wasn't brought until all the guests had already enjoyed their cake. This was partly due to the server assigned to us that day. We had the impression that she was very bossy and her tone was very domineering and didactic towards the guests. Staff shortages are a problem everywhere, but our impression was more that she wanted to handle everything on her own and didn't allow any other staff (except for serving the main course). Drinks were served after a long wait. Sincerely,

We had an excellent meal. The service was superb.

Upscale dining, a lovely ambiance, excellent food, and a fantastic beer garden. We've been very satisfied so far. You can find more information and the menu on the website.

A very good restaurant with a great atmosphere. The cakes are also a dream!

Overkamp is always worth a visit, highly recommended.

I celebrated my birthday there with my family. The food was very good. The waiters were very polite and courteous. Always available and very attentive. The children also had fun on the lovely playground. We would love to come back.

Great food, great selection, top service

I would actually give it 10 stars. Unfortunately, I can only give it five. We were guests at your restaurant for a birthday party in the hut. We met a well-coordinated team, both at the grill and at the bar. I would especially like to mention the bar staff, Tobias, Lena, Alena, and Magnus (the staff requested that we mention them by name). They spared no effort to fulfill even the most unusual drink requests. Thank you very much for that. We felt very comfortable.

Thank you for the lovely communion celebration. We were completely satisfied! The staff was very friendly, the food was delicious and the location including the playground right next door was simply great! Thank you very much!!

Super great service, great value for money, had breakfast with the children, nothing left to be desired, the farm shop is also great

Delicious food. Despite the size, great service.

Definitely one of the best place in town for specially occasion. I have been there with my parents, the food is amazing, the owner(chef) came out and have conversation at the table. The service is excellent, the waiter was very helpful and assisted me from removing jacket, adjust the seat to preparing food or remove bone at the table. The atmosphere is very neat, very German. lol

Great food, great service. We didn't miss anything and the staff were very attentive. A clear recommendation!

We spent 2 wonderful days at Overkamp. The staff was very friendly: reception, restaurant, farm shop, check-out - everyone was in a good mood and tried very hard. The hotel is beautifully located on the edge of the forest, the food in the restaurant was very tasty and of good quality, the breakfast buffet was great. Our double room in the main building was clean and nice. Coffee/tea machine just around the corner. A successful stay, The sign at the entrance "The sun only shines for you today" has come true! We'd love to come back.

Absolute recommendation. 100% professional catering in the restaurant sector. The kitchen works very quickly and the selection of dishes is sufficient and not confusing. Price/performance great. The friendliness and attentiveness of the service staff is particularly outstanding. I can't give any information about the rooms because I didn't stay overnight.

One of the best addresses in the south of Dortmund.

Dear Overkamp team, For many years, we as a family have traditionally visited your house on Easter Sunday - and in most cases we have been very satisfied. We were looking forward to visiting you again this year. However, we would like to give you open feedback this year, as there were some points that struck us negatively and that, in our opinion, could definitely be improved. What particularly bothered us this time was the service. During our stay we had contact with around seven to eight different service staff. Unfortunately, many of them didn't seem particularly attentive or professional. Orders were mixed up, not delivered or simply forgotten. An example: We ordered vanilla ice cream with raspberries and cream - the first delivery was vanilla ice cream with walnuts. After a complaint we were given vanilla ice cream with mango. When we pointed out that it wasn't correct again, we were told that the mango "also had raspberries in it" - and the ice cream was still just put there. Unfortunately, such small but avoidable mistakes leave an unprofessional impression. Another point is the price level. We are aware that quality has its price - and the food is still of a high standard and very tasty. Nevertheless, the prices for main courses now seem so high that people tend to forego starters or desserts. Perhaps it would be worth considering rethinking the pricing structure to encourage guests to order more. We would also like to point out the design of the menu - especially the Easter menu. As in previous years, readability was difficult, but what irritated us this time was the advertisement on the last page (for a DJ and a massage treatment). Unfortunately, this doesn't seem very stylish and, in our opinion, doesn't fit into a menu. Finally, we would also like to emphasize: The atmosphere at your place is, as always, excellent, and even though we have experienced some restrictions this time, we are generally happy to come to you. We hope you can see this feedback as constructive criticism - and perhaps one or two points will be helpful for future improvements.

The food and service is always top. Always happy to come.

We had a lovely evening at Overkamp. The food was very tasty and the service was very attentive and courteous. A special thank you to Mr. Timo Hegemann, who looked after us that evening.

Was there for the first time and also for the last. The service was good and attentive. Unfortunately some dishes from the menu were not available. You always found out after ordering. That wasn't really nice. In my opinion the price/performance ratio doesn't fit at all.

Food and service were very good. I can't comment on the rooms as I only ate here.

Sehr schönes Ambiente und sehr gute Speisekarte sowie nettes und aufmerksame Mitarbeiter

Very suitable for family gatherings

Super nice and delicious restaurant. The service is top and the food is very good. Always my pleasure.

Very nice, for service and quiet area by the forest. Although it is on the thoroughfare, there is only a lot of traffic during peak hours. Still quiet...

Nice ambience, good service, delicious food. Always good

Top restaurant, very good service. Very good menu with good selection. High prices that are absolutely okay given what is on offer. Recommended.

Very tasty food and friendly service.

If you want to go out for a really nice meal, this is a great place. Very nice ambiance and very friendly staff.

We visited Overkamp for the first time yesterday and had a really nice evening overall! The location is great – stylish and cozy. The service was extremely friendly and attentive, and we felt well looked after. The food was also delicious 🤗 One small disappointment was our seating: We had a table for two, which unfortunately was right next to a tall cabinet. On the side of the band, there was a visible three-way socket with several cables – which somewhat dampened the atmosphere at our table. Nevertheless, it was a thoroughly enjoyable visit, and we'd love to come back – perhaps with a slightly nicer spot next time!

For weddings and festive occasions of all kinds, this is the number 1 in Dortmund and the surrounding area!

An outstanding restaurant with extremely professional and unobtrusive service staff

Thank you very much for the fantastic goose meal.

My dears, The Hotel and Restaurant Overkamp is the first address for me In Dortmund! Whether hotel, food, cake, everything here you are always warmly welcomed! The hut is also an absolute oasis of well-being for weddings, events and celebrations! We come here several times a year simply for a piece of cake over the coffee table! You can get everything here and there is also a great farm shop here! So why read reviews! Off to Overkamp and enjoy 🥰❤️👋💋

We had dinner at the Overkamp restaurant. If you want something special that you can't get everywhere, then you have to go to Overkamp. The service is great and the food is really great. We'll be back.

My husband and I would like to thank you very much for the wonderful wedding celebration! The planning was incredibly straightforward and easy. Our expectations were exceeded. The decoration was just perfect and exactly how we wanted it. The food was delicious and the service was excellent - we felt completely at home. The cake in particular was a real highlight: beautiful and incredibly tasty! We are very grateful for the great support and would host a celebration with you again at any time. Everything was really perfect

We were promised more based on the reviews. Food: Unfortunately it was lukewarm, the rösti with the pork fillet tips was soggy because it was drowned in sauce. The rest is relatively bland. Price-performance is not quite right. Ambience: unfortunately far too loud, big and stuffy. You feel like you're in mass processing. We prefer it smaller and more personal, but that's a matter of taste.

I've eaten here a few times and have been very satisfied each time. Very nice service and very tasty dishes.

Great food Great service Were there for the Magic Dinner, without an overnight stay

The food is beyond any doubt, really very good. Unfortunately, prices have risen significantly in recent years, well above inflation. We also had the experience twice now that we waited 2 hours and 3 hours for the food. In a group of 12 people. Especially with children there and with Overkamp's premium standards, I think it's clearly too long.

Consistent, very high quality of food, professional and competent service!

Very good restaurant. German cuisine prepared in a modern way. Super tasty and the service was entertaining and courteous. Everything is at the level of a 1st place in the Dortmund restaurant guide

We and friends ordered a roasted goose here, which was expertly cut up for us right at the table.

Everything is great in this restaurant

Fantastic roast duck with the best sauce I've ever had. Big compliments to the kitchen.

Disappointed. Price and performance are not in proportion. Overcrowded that affects the service. Service without any level

Were here for coffee. Price/performance is good. The location is divided into different areas such as restaurant, bar, cafe... and is therefore a bit confusing. The entire interior is kept in a dignified style. There are enough parking spaces available.

The food is great, the service is great and the events are great. Always happy to come back.

Very nice and friendly staff. The food was very good and plentiful

Always worth a visit! A first class family owned restaurant - friendly atmosphere and very good food

Excellent, friendly staff, very tasty food! Not exactly cheap, but quite reasonable for the quality!

The New Year's Eve dinner was terrific. Reception, service, everyone was very attentive and friendly. The menu itself was great. You could also contact the service team yourself if you needed some time after a course. It was a pure culinary delight for us and in every course you could feel that certain something, the icing on the cake. Price-performance was also very balanced. Very happy again. Thank you for the lovely evening!

We went there for lunch today and all I can say is WOW ‼️👌 The ambience, service and above all the food was delicious 😋... We'll probably treat ourselves to this more often... 😂

Top! Really great 😊 We had a few lovely days with the Overkamp family. The room was great, very clean and very nicely decorated. Breakfast, lunch and dinner once again exceeded our expectations. Very very tasty. The service was very good. We felt very comfortable. At the end of our short trip we bought lots of goodies from the farm shop. Great selection! We'll definitely be back. Thank you for everything !

The interior is a bit old and the table could be a bit wider/deeper if you're dining there with a larger group. The many plates and other vessels on the table made it a bit cramped. But the most important thing (in my eyes): the food is to die for and the service was excellent!

Simply wonderful, always with pleasure. Family business. Always happy

We had a very good lunch in the beer garden with a larger group. Very good service rounded off the visit. There is also an excellent breakfast buffet from Wednesday to Sunday that leaves nothing to be desired, for example drinks are also included. The service here is also very courteous.

Outrageous, all in all. Never again.

The best cuisine in Dortmund. Authentically Westphalian!

We went to Overkamp for goose dinner. The food was excellent, even if the goose could have been a little crispier. The portion was generous, you will be more than full. I particularly enjoyed the dumplings with the sauce! The waitress was a slightly older lady with a blonde bob, who we really liked! She was very friendly and kind of funny, we felt comfortable and will come back if the opportunity arises :)

It tastes really good here. Great location. Very good staff. Everything is great here.

The food was very tasty, no MEAT!!! The staff are very nice, I feel sorry for them and, as you could see, they are clearly under pressure!!! A BIG THANK YOU to the STAFF from the guests would be appropriate from time to time. A lot less meat, that would be an advantage

Hotel & Restaurant excellent as always. All employees are attentive and very friendly.

Very nice restaurant, staff super friendly and very tasty food,
