The story

Restaurant Bohrer, Rouffach – Modern Country Cooking in Alsace

Restaurant Bohrer: a convivial table in the heart of Alsace

At the Domaine de Rouffach, a 16th-century former post house on the Alsace wine route, Chef Philippe Bohrer runs a restaurant that bears his name. It is the cornerstone of the estate, a place where the chef’s character meets the region’s bounty. Here, the cuisine is described as strong, generous, audacious, and deeply respectful of the Alsatian terroir — a joyful and inspired take on modern cuisine that translates the chef’s love for this land of talent and gourmet treasures.

The dining room itself is bourgeois and hushed, a setting that invites you to settle in. The atmosphere is cosy, with remarkable antique objects placed here and there to intrigue or amuse the eye, blending yesterday’s charm with modern comfort. It’s an ambiance that matches the food: refined and inspired, yet never stiff.

That spirit of generosity and family hospitality earned the restaurant a place in the Michelin guide, where it is listed as Recommended — a recognition of the consistent quality and the sincere, terroir-driven cooking that defines the Bohrer table.

Whether you come for lunch or dinner, the experience is one of country cooking elevated by a modern sensibility. The menu changes with the seasons, and the wine list is carefully chosen, befitting a restaurant that sits on the legendary Route des Vins d’Alsace. It’s a place where you can taste the region in every bite, served with the warmth that makes this corner of France so memorable.
