Located within the Hilton Munich Airport, this fine dining destination transcends expectations, offering travelers and locals alike an experience where gastronomy meets the essence of nature, elevated by artistry, authenticity, and a distinct sense of place.

The Essence of the Alps, Elevated to Excellence

At Mountain Hub Gourmet, Head Chef Marcel Tauschek and his team invite guests on a refined exploration of the Alpine landscape through taste and texture. Each dish tells a story of connection, to the land, to the seasons, and to the people who bring its ingredients to life. From the crisp freshness of mountain herbs to the depth of locally sourced meats and dairy, the menu reflects both tradition and innovation in perfect rhythm.

The restaurant’s setting beside Munich Airport offers a rare paradox of moments of tranquility and indulgence at the crossroads of global travel. Guests step into a calm, elegant space where natural materials and sophisticated design elements mirror the Alpine world outside, creating a dining atmosphere that feels both grounding and inspiring.

A Menu That Celebrates Nature’s Diversity

The philosophy at Mountain Hub Gourmet is rooted in purity and authenticity. Every course embodies the idea of “from the Alps to the world”, an interplay of regional produce and international refinement. Seasonal menus change to reflect the freshest harvests, ensuring that the dining experience is always evolving.

Highlights include a multi-course fine dining experience that can range from four to six courses, offering guests a series of expressive dishes that harmonize modern flair with deep respect for regional identity. The vegetarian menu, designed with equal care, demonstrates how creativity and sustainability can meet at the highest level of gastronomy, showcasing the same sophistication and delight without compromise.

The restaurant also caters to those with limited time but unlimited taste, through its à la carte and business lunch options. Whether savoring a three-course midday meal or an extended evening of discovery, guests experience the same level of precision and flair that has made the Mountain Hub name synonymous with elevated dining.
