Its menu includes items such as spätzle, brägele (sauteed potatoes), Flammkuchen and bibiliskäs ("a light quark with fresh herbs, on wood-fire baked bread").

All of the wines on offer come from their vineyard on Tuniberg, a hill about a mile to the northeast.[3]

The restaurant is open seven days a week between May and August. Due to local law regarding external management in a wine-growing area, it can only be open for four months of the year.[4] Reservations are not accepted; it is first come, first served.[3]

Guests used to bring wooden wine boxes to sit on in the orchard, but again local law intervened, determining that the crates were seats, taking them beyond the capacity of the 40 permitted. Instead, customers dining in the orchard can sit on blankets.[4]

gollark: Also, do you want bees?
gollark: Yes, I just don't like many of them.
gollark: I don't have one. And they would not, in the hypothetical scenario in which they existed, need to know this.
gollark: Why would someone need to know that?
