Altwernigeroder Kartoffelhaus
Altwernigeröder Kartoffelhaus
A potato-themed restaurant in an old half-timbered house, serving Harz classics and trout, and consistently among the most popular restaurants in town.
Part of the Altwernigeröder Apartment Hotel at Marktstraße 14, its several cozy dining rooms seat over a hundred people. The menu centers on potatoes, with baked potatoes in various styles, potato pancakes, and specialty platters such as the “Dreckskarren” (muck cart), along with Harz trout and other local home-style dishes. TripAdvisor once ranked it first in town, with many reviews; book ahead for weekend dinners. Closed on Wednesdays; dinner is served on other days, with lunch added Thursday to Sunday. About a five-minute walk from the Town Hall Square.
