Mountain Hub Gourmet

The Mountain Hub Gourmet at the Hilton Munich Airport is one of the most extraordinary gourmet restaurants in Europe—and the only airport restaurant to be awarded a Michelin star. Since 2022, inspectors have confirmed this award year after year. This makes the restaurant a culinary landmark between heaven and earth—and a destination for gourmets from all over the world.

Its guests come from Melbourne as well as Munich, from all over the world, and from the surrounding Bavarian region. The restaurant is a meeting place for international travelers who want to enjoy a meal before or after their flight, as well as for locals who want to dine at the highest level without leaving the city.

In keeping with its name, “Mountain Hub,” the restaurant reinterprets Alpine cuisine: refined, contemporary, and cosmopolitan. The menus combine Bavarian, Austrian, and northern Italian influences to create a culinary signature that always focuses on regional ingredients and authentic flavors—a dialogue between the Alps and the world.

Head Chef Marcel Tauschek, one of Germany’s youngest Michelin-starred chefs, is responsible for this signature style. With precision, creativity, and a keen sense for the essentials, he shapes the style of the restaurant. His dishes tell stories of origin and seasons, of craftsmanship and produce. From mountain herbs and locally sourced meat to fresh dairy products, the menu combines tradition and innovation. The restaurant offers multi-course menus with four to six courses, finely composed vegetarian options, à la carte dishes, and an elegant business lunch.

The restaurant’s interior pays homage to nature: wood, stone, and soft colors create an atmosphere that promotes calm and concentration—a place of serenity in the heart of the airport. Host Emilio Kesenheimer, one of Germany’s youngest sommeliers, leads the service team with warmth and professionalism. Together, they provide attentive, personal service that makes every visit an experience.

The Mountain Hub Gourmet forms the heart of the Mountain Hub world at the Hilton Munich Airport – complemented by the Mountain Hub Social Dining, the legendary Lobby Bar, and the Mountain Hub Spa. Together, they represent a philosophy that combines enjoyment, relaxation, and hospitality at the highest level – a unique gourmet destination between the Alps, the city, and the world.
