Zur Peif - Réserver une table

once again I had to make shops in idstein, and in the evening they stroll through the idysteine inner city again the consideration which restaurant I could visit this year. Finally my choice fell into the restaurant “Zur Peif”. this is an impressive old building in the old town. during the day they have to get used to the damped light and the somewhat inadequate atmosphere in the inner. when the building was created a few years ago, no one thought of generously glazed window fronts to capture daylight. in the inner one gets a very inviting theke for people who want to meet with friends or colleagues for the evening. next to it, the restaurant still offers for estimated 25 to 30 people place,...

Hi,The restaurant is a great place to experience real regional cooking like Handkäs mit Musik. That is not only German food it is regional Hessen food. Try a glas of refreshing apple vine mixed with soda (sauer gespritzter) or if you prefer get the sweet mix. The historic location is at the central place in the old town Idstein. They also offer snacks and small dishes.
