A Cordial Welcome..

...to the Frankish-bavarian Hotel and Restaurant Roter Ochs!

Since 1689 our family Scheller is here in Forchheim. In 1881 my grand grandfather opened the first restaurant "with beer, cold and warm dishes, and stables for horses".

The long tradition of hospitality in our family guarantees you a comfortable stay and an unforgettable experience amidst impressive franconian scenery.

Is the Roter Ochs a Gourmet Restaurant?

Do bavarian and frankish people go to a gourmet restaurant? Of course! Frankish meals can be interesting also for gourmets. Maybe you want to read something about our philosophy or go directly to our menu list (in german only).

Franconian Kitchen

Often the frankish kitchen is very solid; the quantum of the meals ist very ample; maybe you'll need a schnaps after eating.

Contact

But there is on the other side the young frankish kitchen which we prefer. Fresh ingredients, namely from the region (look at our hourseradish specialities "Meerrettich"), our finest hors'dœuvres, the good Frankenwein from Iphofen and Würzburg, and last but not least the frankish beer.
