A cosy Westphalian farmhouse restaurant in Bielefeld's Senne district, serving traditional local cuisine including Westphalian ham, fresh game, and hearty soups in a rustic, wood-beamed setting.
Landhaus Huhne is a cosy Westphalian farmhouse restaurant in Bielefeld's rural Senne district, serving traditional regional cuisine in a rustic, wood-beamed setting rather than pursuing any chef-driven fine-dining concept. Westfälischer Schinken mit Pumpernickel, pairing the region's air-dried ham with its famous dense rye bread, is a defining regional starter, while a Wild boar ragout reflects the restaurant's game-focused, countryside character; Pflaumenkuchen (plum cake) rounds out the menu as a traditional dessert. The dining room has a genuine farmhouse atmosphere, with exposed wood beams, rustic furnishings, and a warm, unhurried character suited to a leisurely countryside meal rather than a quick bite; the setting is entirely casual, appealing to families and visitors exploring the Senne countryside outside central Bielefeld. The beverage list favours regional beers and simple wine options that complement the hearty, game-forward menu rather than an extensive sommelier programme. Reservations are advisable, particularly for weekend lunch and dinner, since the restaurant's countryside location and popularity with local families and day-trippers can lead to a full house during peak Senne tourism periods such as autumn game season.
