About Waldgaststätte Hohes Gras

Set high above the green surroundings of Kassel, Waldgaststätte Hohes Gras brings together the relaxed charm of a traditional German restaurant with the peaceful atmosphere of a hillside retreat. Located at Hohes Gras 3A, 34131 Kassel, Germany, this spot feels like the kind of place where long lunches naturally turn into slow afternoon conversations. The outdoor seating area is especially inviting, giving guests the chance to enjoy fresh air and scenic woodland views while settling into classic German flavors and comforting regional dishes.

Inside, the restaurant keeps a warm and welcoming mood without feeling overly formal. Wooden details, cozy seating, and a calm dining setup make it suitable for casual meals, family gatherings, or even small private celebrations in the private dining room. The menu reflects a balanced approach to German dining, combining hearty favorites with lighter and healthier options. Guests looking for organic dishes or vegetarian choices will still find plenty to enjoy, while those wanting a quick bite or small plates can easily stop in without committing to a full multi-course meal.

Drinks also play a big part in the overall experience at Waldgaststätte Hohes Gras. Local beer pairs naturally with the food, though the restaurant also serves cocktails, wine, coffee, and hard liquor for visitors who want something different with their meal. Because the setting feels both rustic and modern at the same time, the restaurant works equally well for relaxed daytime dining and cozy evening visits.

The dine-in experience remains the main focus here, which adds to the authentic and social feeling of the restaurant. Instead of rushing customers in and out, the atmosphere encourages guests to slow down, enjoy the scenery, and spend extra time around the table. Whether someone arrives after exploring the nearby area or simply wants a peaceful German dining experience away from the busy city center, the setting at Waldgaststätte Hohes Gras feels naturally comfortable and memorable.

My sister And I really appreciated the friendliness of the server. Book a table to prevent frustration, they may be occupied occasionally but especially on the weekends. Many thanks so much for making our family special event truly memorable! My brother had an excellent birthday, we are coming back again. Lots of different food options to select out of the menu, fantastic. Was not pretty sure what things to expect to have but food here was great, lots to choose from and great service too.

Very beautiful place. In the middle of woods with plenty of places to hike before and after eating. Very delicious French fries and lovely, friendly staff. Definitely suggest!

A stop on the motorway, but what a stop. A gem in the forest, with good food and beer. Service was a little slow but that was the only criticism.

Nach einem schönen, winterlichen Spaziergang Gab es zum Abschluss noch eine frische Waffel mit Schlagsahne und Vanilleeis. Eine sehr schöne Lokalität, die zum verweilen einlädt, zudem ist die Gaststätte sehr kinderfreundlich. Auch das Ambiente lädt sehr zum verweilen ein. Da ist eine Mischung aus Urig schön und modern ist.

An einem Samstag am frühen Nachmittag zum Essen noch einen schattigen Platz im Biergarten gefunden. Gut bedient, lecker geschmeckt und es gab viel zu sehen, weil drei Paare getraut wurden während unseres Aufenthaltes. Die Nebenräume waren geschmackvoll gerichtet für die Feierlichkeiten.

Wundervolles deutsches Essen! Der Herr, der uns bediente, war freundlich und humorvoll. Trinken und Essen kamen sehr schnell an und vor allem die Bratkartoffeln waren sehr knusprig und mit dem Speck haemonisch. Womöglich sogar die besten Bratkartoffeln, die ich bisher gegessen habe!

Wir waren, nach unserer Wanderung durch den Habichtswald, spontan in der Waldgaststätte. Das Gebäude versprüht das Ambiente des vorherigen Jahrhunderts und passt doch auch in die heutige Zeit. Der Kellner war super nett und wirklich auf Zack! Hier und da ein flotter Spruch, aber nie übertrieben. Schmandschnitzel und Seelachs waren lecker und die Bratkartoffeln ein Traum! Preislich lagen wir (inkl. Getränke) für 2 Personen bei unter 50€, was bei der Qualität des Essens und des Service absolut gerechtfertigt war! Toiletten sind ebenfalls vorhanden und sehr sauber! Das war sicher nicht unser letzter Besuch bei euch :)

Wie immer ganz besonders nett und lecker! Auf unsere etwas "ungewöhnlichen Umstämde" wurde selbstverständlich Rücksicht genommen. Der Service ist ganz besonders nett und der neue Koch, der dort noch nicht sehr lange tätig ist, ein kleiner Künstler. Das Rotbarschfilet hat wunderbar gemundet. Sobald wir wieder in Kassel sind, kommen wir auf dem Rückweg sehr gerne vorbei.
