Restaurant in Wackersberg, Germany
Honest Bavarian cooking, Michelin-verified value.
Tölzer Schießstätte - Hager holds back-to-back Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition (2024 and 2025) and a 4.9 Google rating across 441 reviews — an unusual combination at a €€ price point. Chef Fabrizio's country cooking in the Bavarian foothills delivers consistent regional quality without the cost or formality of the fine-dining tier. Worth booking as part of any trip through the Tölzer land.
Yes — and if you are hunting for honest country cooking in the Bavarian foothills at a price that does not punish you for the drive, this is one of the most direct affirmatives in the region. A Michelin Bib Gourmand in both 2024 and 2025 tells you the inspectors keep coming back, and a Google rating of 4.9 across 441 reviews tells you guests agree. At a €€ price point, the value equation is hard to argue with. The question is not whether Hager is good — it is whether it fits your trip.
Tölzer Schießstätte - Hager sits at Oberfischbach, Kiefersau 138 in Wackersberg, a small municipality in the foothills south of Bad Tölz, in the kind of Bavarian countryside where restaurants like this exist to feed people who live there and travellers who are curious enough to find them. Chef Fabrizio runs a kitchen focused on country cooking , the cuisine type Michelin uses when the food is rooted in place, seasonal produce, and technique that serves the ingredient rather than decorating it. That framing matters for the explorer-minded diner: you are not getting a tasting menu built around provocation. You are getting food that reflects where you are.
The Bib Gourmand designation is specifically awarded to restaurants that deliver high quality at moderate prices , Michelin defines it as good food for €36 or under for two courses (the threshold varies by market, but the principle holds). Two consecutive years of that recognition, at a venue with nearly 450 Google reviews averaging 4.9, is not luck. It points to a consistent operation that has found its register and sticks to it. For the food-focused traveller, that consistency matters more than novelty.
This is also the right time of year to visit. Bavarian country cooking skews seasonal by nature , autumn and winter bring the braised, hearty dishes that the cuisine does leading, and the foothills around Wackersberg are at their most atmospheric in cooler months. If you are planning a trip into the Alps or the Tölzer land, a meal here fits the itinerary naturally. For more options in the area, see our full Wackersberg restaurants guide.
Country cooking at this level is worth considering carefully in the off-premise context. The food at Hager is grounded in tradition and technique , braised meats, regional preparations, dishes that depend on warmth and texture. Some of that travels; some of it does not. Without confirmed delivery or takeout availability in the venue data, Pearl cannot recommend off-premise as a primary route here. The safer assumption is that this is a sit-down experience. If you are exploring the Wackersberg area and want to eat well on the move, this is the place to stop, not the place to call ahead for a bag. Check directly with the venue if your situation requires it.
Booking here is rated easy, which at a Bib Gourmand venue in a rural Bavarian setting means you are unlikely to face the multi-week lead times of a city fine-dining room. That said, do not assume walk-in availability on weekends , a 4.9 rating with 441 reviews draws a local following, and weekend lunches in particular can fill. Weekday visits are the safer bet if flexibility is limited. Since no website or phone number is confirmed in Pearl's data, use Google Maps or a local search to find current contact details before you travel. For other things to do in the area while you are there, see our full Wackersberg experiences guide.
Tölzer Schießstätte - Hager is not competing with Germany's €€€€ fine-dining tier , and that is precisely the point. Aqua in Wolfsburg and Vendôme in Bergisch Gladbach operate at a price point three to four times higher, with the service infrastructure and multi-course architecture to match. If your trip is built around a single landmark meal, those are the rooms to book. But if you are in the Bavarian foothills and want food that earns its Michelin recognition without a three-figure bill, Hager is a cleaner choice than driving an hour for a formal dining experience that does not fit the landscape.
Within a more direct country-cooking comparison, 21.9 in Piobesi d'Alba and Andrea Monesi - Locanda di Orta in Orta San Giulio operate in a similar register , regional, produce-led, Michelin-recognised , but are in northern Italy rather than Bavaria. If you are building a broader itinerary across the Alps and foothills, those venues are worth knowing. For German country cooking with Michelin recognition at this price tier, Hager sits in a thin field.
For the explorer travelling through the Tölzer land or down from Munich, the calculus is simple: JAN in Munich or ES:SENZ in Grassau serve different purposes , the former is a city destination, the latter a different take on regional cooking further east. Hager is the stop you make because you are there and because the Bib Gourmand record gives you confidence in what you will find. That is a different kind of value than a once-a-year splurge, but it is real value.
Two consecutive Bib Gourmand years at a €€ price point in rural Bavaria is a strong signal. The Google score reinforces it. For the food traveller passing through the foothills south of Bad Tölz, Tölzer Schießstätte - Hager is a dependable, well-priced stop with Michelin credibility , easier to book than most recognised venues in the region, and more grounded in place than the formal dining rooms further north. Book it as part of a Bavarian foothills trip; do not make a four-hour round trip solely for it. For context on the wider area, see our Wackersberg restaurants guide, hotels guide, and bars guide.

Comparing your options in Wackersberg for this tier.
At €€, it is one of the stronger value propositions Michelin has flagged in Bavaria — two consecutive Bib Gourmand awards (2024 and 2025) confirm the kitchen is consistently delivering above its price point. Country cooking at this level rarely asks this little of your wallet. If you are in the Bad Tölz area and want a guaranteed-quality meal without the fine-dining bill, book it.
It works well for a low-key celebration — the Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition gives it credibility, and the €€ price range means you are not overspending to mark the occasion. That said, this is a country cooking venue in rural Wackersberg, not a white-tablecloth dining room. If the occasion calls for ceremony and a lengthy tasting menu, Tantris in Munich would be the more fitting choice.
Wackersberg is a small municipality, so direct local alternatives are limited. The nearest significant restaurant scene is in Bad Tölz, just to the north. For comparable Bib Gourmand-level value elsewhere in Bavaria, Tantris DNA in Munich operates at a higher price tier but with similar Michelin recognition. Hager's combination of rural setting and €€ pricing is difficult to match directly in the immediate area.
The venue database does not document a specific dietary policy. Country cooking traditions in Bavaria tend to be meat- and dairy-forward, so guests with strict vegetarian, vegan, or allergy-driven requirements should check the venue's official channels before booking. Calling ahead is advisable given the rural location — a wasted drive to Kiefersau 138 is worth avoiding.
No group-booking policy is documented in the available venue data. For larger parties, direct contact with the restaurant is the only reliable path — the rural venue format in Wackersberg suggests limited capacity, so early planning matters more here than at an urban restaurant. Small groups of four to six are likely easier to place than large parties.
The address is Oberfischbach, Kiefersau 138 in Wackersberg — this is not a town-centre location, so plan your route in advance. The kitchen operates under chef Fabrizio, and the cuisine is country cooking at a €€ price point backed by back-to-back Bib Gourmand awards. Arrive knowing this is a destination meal in a rural setting, not a drop-in option; confirm hours and availability directly before making the trip.
Keep this venue in your Pearl passport, rate it after you visit, and track it alongside every other place you collect.
