    a house in the snow at night
    Tim R.

    If you're going to Kimberley, there is no restaurant you should try without first going to the Old Bauernhaus. They offer a warm and inviting Bavarian atmosphere with a food satisfaction guarantee. After a long day of skiing, hiking, or other alpine activities, the Old Bauernhaus will be the pinnacle of your night. What makes the dining experience so unique is the 350 year old European log home and cider barn, which has been transported piece by piece from Southern Bavaria. On top of that, the Bauernhaus has become famous among locals and skiiers for its generous servings of schnitzel, sourdough, and drinks. This restaurant has always been busy, and that can cause the wait for the food to be long, but rest assured that it is worth the wait. The European-trained chefs Nils and Michelle Fuhge are supporters of the 'slow food movement', meaning all meals are cooked right from scratch using only fresh organic ingredients. If you listen closely, you can even hear your schnizel being pounded out in the kitchen. There is really no wrong choice on their menu item. Everything tastes wonderful. Everything is made fresh. Everything features a mix of traditional Bavarian specialties. Personally, I love the Jaegerschnizel (hunter schnitzel). Their pieces of pork never taste too overdone, and the mushroom sauce is something out of this world. The spätzle, soft egg noodles, was another highlight of the meal- you'd swear it came right from Germany. For dessert, I recommend the Heisseleibe (hot love): a towering glass with layers of hot berries inbetween ice cream...perfect for an after-ski dessert. The servers are also very outstanding. They are very patient when taking your order, as there is so much to choose from, and they can explain anything on the menu and give you recommendations. Just make sure you make a reservation though, as this restaurant can get busy during the holiday times. If you're looking for one restaurant in Kimberley, Old Bauernhaus should be your first consideration.

    My wife and I are always ready to try any German restaurant and since this was our first visit to Kimberley, we had to give the Old Bauernhaus a try. Once we got inside, my wife remarked that it reminded her very much of a traditional gasthaus in Germany. I had the usual standby, wienerschnitzel (pork) which came with pan fried potatoes. I noticed home cured sauerkraut was an available side. I had to try that! My wife had beef tenderloin and chose pan fried potatoes as well in place of the side it comes with. The food was great. We were not at all disappointed. I was a bit nervous what with the couple of negative reviews, but our experience was good. The service was friendly too. We will definitely come back if we're ever in Kimberley again.

    This is a traditional German restaurant in Kimberley. We enjoy the atmosphere, service and food. Today, my bf and I ordered a cheese bread with pears, a veal wienerschnitzel with spätzle and a local farm salad. This place definitely has the best schnitzel! The salad was made with local farm spinach, beets, roasted squash, green beans, walnut and a homemade dressing. It was refreshing and delicious! As well, we enjoy their dark German beer on tap. Be sure make a reservation as it can be busy every day of the week!

    Old Bauernhaus is 350 years old + was relocated from Germany to Kimberley BC in 1989. Very charming building and warm welcoming staff.

    See all

    Can't find better German cuisine outside of Germany. Cool atmosphere and good service. Our favourite place to go out in Kimberley.
