Restaurant in Müllheim, Germany
Michelin-recognised value in Baden wine country.
Hebelstube holds two consecutive Michelin Plates (2024 and 2025) and a 4.8 Google rating, making it the most credible farm-to-table option in Müllheim at the €€ price tier. For quality-driven, produce-led cooking in the heart of Markgräflerland without the cost of a starred room, this is the right booking. Book one to two weeks ahead for most dates.
Hebelstube is the most credible farm-to-table option in Müllheim at the €€ price point, and it earns two consecutive Michelin Plates (2024 and 2025) to prove it. If you are in the Markgräflerland region and want quality-driven cooking that does not require a splurge budget or a tuxedo, this is the right booking. Plan ahead but not excessively: availability here is manageable by German fine-dining standards, meaning a week or two of lead time is usually enough outside peak summer and holiday periods.
Hebelstube sits on Bundesstraße 3 in Müllheim im Markgräflerland, a small town in Baden's southernmost wine country, close to the French border and within easy reach of Freiburg. The setting gives the kitchen a credible farm-to-table brief: this is some of Germany's most productive agricultural and viticultural land, and a restaurant operating at Michelin Plate level in this location has direct access to Kaiserstuhl wines, Black Forest produce, and Rhine Valley ingredients that most urban kitchens pay a premium to source.
The Michelin Plate is not a star, but it is not nothing. Two consecutive years of recognition signal that Michelin's inspectors found cooking here that meets a consistent quality threshold. For a €€ restaurant in a provincial town, that is a meaningful credential. It positions Hebelstube above the casual Gasthof level — see Gasthof Ochsen for direct country cooking at a lower price point — while remaining far more accessible than the starred restaurants further north and east.
Google reviewers rate Hebelstube at 4.8 across 237 reviews, which is a strong signal of consistent satisfaction rather than occasional brilliance. A high volume of reviews at a high score in a town this size suggests repeat local custom as well as visitor trade, which tends to be a more reliable indicator of kitchen consistency than a handful of enthusiast reviews.
For the explorer-type diner, the most interesting seat in a farm-to-table restaurant is always as close to the kitchen as the room allows. At a venue operating at this scale and price tier in a market town setting, counter or bar-adjacent seating typically gives you a clearer read on the kitchen's actual working rhythm , the speed of service, the precision in plating, and the confidence with which dishes leave the pass. If Hebelstube offers counter seating or an open-kitchen view, request it: the transparency is part of the value at a farm-to-table restaurant, where the sourcing story is as important as the cooking technique. The intimacy of a smaller room also tends to support the quieter, more focused atmosphere that makes the Markgräflerland style of eating , unhurried, produce-led, wine-friendly , work at its leading.
On atmosphere: the energy here reads as warm and calm rather than formal or hushed. A 4.8 rating at 237 reviews in a town like Müllheim almost always reflects a room that locals return to, which means the ambient feel is likely convivial without being loud. For a conversation-led dinner, that is the right register. If you are after the charged, high-performance atmosphere of a city tasting-menu counter, look elsewhere; Hebelstube's version of the experience is more grounded and regional in character.
Markgräflerland produces some of Baden's most approachable wines, with Gutedel (Chasselas) as the signature grape alongside Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). A farm-to-table kitchen in this location should, by rights, carry a wine list that reflects the surrounding appellations. Pairing local Baden wines with regional produce is one of the more coherent value propositions in German dining, and at a €€ price tier it is considerably more affordable than chasing the same logic at starred-level restaurants.

Budget: €€, making this one of the more affordable Michelin-recognised options in the Baden region. Reservations: Bookable and manageable; aim for one to two weeks in advance for most dates, longer during summer and local wine-festival periods. Booking method: No booking platform is listed in available data , contact the restaurant directly. Dress: No dress code is listed; at a €€ farm-to-table restaurant in a market town, smart-casual is the safe call. Accessibility: On Bundesstraße 3, a main road through Müllheim, so arrival by car is direct; the town is also served by rail on the Freiburg–Basel line. For more options around the town, see our full Müllheim restaurants guide, our full Müllheim hotels guide, and our full Müllheim bars guide.
Smart-casual is the right call. Hebelstube carries a Michelin Plate and operates in the €€ tier, so it sits above a casual pub but well below the formal-dress expectations of starred restaurants. No dress code is listed in available data, but in a Markgräflerland market town context, clean, neat clothing without a jacket requirement is standard. Do not overdress for a three-star room; do not underdress for a €€ Michelin-recognised kitchen.
One to two weeks is enough for most dates. With two consecutive Michelin Plates and a 4.8 Google rating, Hebelstube draws both local regulars and regional visitors, so popular weekend slots will fill faster. Book three to four weeks out if your date falls in summer or around local wine festivals in the Markgräflerland calendar. Walk-ins may be possible midweek, but given the limited data on seat count, do not rely on it for a special occasion.
No specific menu data is available, so specific dish recommendations are not possible here. What the farm-to-table designation and Markgräflerland location imply is a kitchen working with seasonal regional produce , Black Forest, Rhine Valley, and Baden agricultural goods , so dishes tied to the current season are your leading guide. Ask the kitchen or service team what is particularly fresh that week; at a Michelin Plate farm-to-table restaurant, that question always gets a useful answer.
Yes, with the right expectations. At €€, Hebelstube delivers Michelin-recognised quality without the formality or cost of a starred room. It is a strong choice for a relaxed but considered celebration , a birthday, anniversary, or a treat dinner , where the food matters but the atmosphere should stay warm rather than ceremonial. For a grander occasion where the setting itself needs to impress, a starred restaurant like Schwarzwaldstube in Baiersbronn would carry more weight.
At €€ with two Michelin Plates and a 4.8 Google rating, the value case is strong. You are getting Michelin-quality cooking at a price tier well below what the recognition usually commands. The comparison point is not starred restaurants in major cities , it is other €€ options in the area. Against that field, Hebelstube is the credible choice for a food-led dinner. The honest caveat: without menu or price data, exact per-head costs are not confirmed here, so check directly before booking.
No tasting menu data is confirmed in available records, so a direct verdict is not possible. Farm-to-table restaurants at the Michelin Plate level frequently offer a set menu or a chef's selection format, which at a €€ price point typically represents good value relative to the a la carte equivalent. If a tasting menu is available, it is usually the format that leading reflects the kitchen's full range , ask when booking whether it is offered and at what price.
Gasthof Ochsen is the main local alternative for country cooking at a lower price point and with a more casual atmosphere. For farm-to-table cooking in a similar spirit but different geography, BOK Restaurant Brust oder Keule in Münster is worth knowing. If you want to step up in ambition and are willing to travel, Schwarzwaldstube in Baiersbronn is the regional benchmark at a significantly higher price tier. See our full Müllheim restaurants guide for a broader overview.
No specific dietary policy is available in confirmed data. A farm-to-table kitchen working with seasonal regional produce is generally well-placed to accommodate vegetarian requests, since the sourcing model already centres on plant and land ingredients. For stricter requirements , vegan, allergen-specific, or coeliac , contact the restaurant directly before booking. No phone or website is listed in current data; the leading approach is to book in person or through a local directory listing that carries current contact details.

Key differences to consider before you reserve.
A relaxed, put-together look fits the €€ farm-to-table context here. Think clean casual rather than formal wear — Hebelstube holds a Michelin Plate, not a star, and Müllheim is a small Baden town rather than a city fine-dining destination. Leave the tie at home, but avoid beachwear.
Aim for at least one to two weeks in advance, particularly for weekend evenings when the Markgräflerland region draws visitors from both sides of the German-French border. The €€ price point and Michelin Plate recognition (2024 and 2025) make Hebelstube the most bookable serious restaurant in Müllheim, so demand is steady without being impossible to plan around.
Specific menu items are not publicly documented, so ordering advice beyond format is unreliable here. What is confirmed: the kitchen operates a farm-to-table approach in Baden, which in practice means seasonal, regional produce. Ask your server what is freshest on the day — that question is more useful at this type of restaurant than any fixed recommendation.
Yes, with the right expectations. At €€ pricing with back-to-back Michelin Plates, Hebelstube is a credible choice for a low-key celebration where quality matters more than ceremony. If you need a grand, formal setting, look toward a Michelin-starred restaurant in the wider Baden region instead. For a birthday dinner or anniversary that does not require theatrical service, this works well.
At €€, Hebelstube is among the more affordable Michelin-recognised restaurants in Baden, and consecutive Plates in 2024 and 2025 confirm consistent kitchen standards. For farm-to-table cooking in Markgräflerland at this price point, the value case is clear. You are not paying for prestige real estate or elaborate theatre — you are paying for honest, regionally grounded cooking with independent quality verification.
Menu format details are published details are limited for Hebelstube, so a direct tasting menu verdict is not possible here. What the Michelin Plate recognises is consistent quality across the menu rather than any single format, so whether you eat à la carte or a set progression, the kitchen's commitment to regional farm-to-table produce applies throughout. Check the venue's official channels for the latest details.
Documented alternatives specifically within Müllheim are limited given the town's size. For a step up in formality and ambition, Schwarzwaldstube in the Black Forest region operates at a significantly higher price point with Michelin star recognition. Hebelstube fills a specific gap — Michelin-acknowledged farm-to-table at €€ — that has no direct like-for-like competitor in the immediate Müllheim area.
