Bachofer is a restaurant with a boutique hotel in the old town of Waiblingen that takes private dinners, small meetings and catered events. The restaurant seats 45 guests, a bar adds 10 places, a private dining room seats 12 and the hotel has eight bedrooms.
Seminars and company events
The first-floor private dining room, called Pranger11, is described as a retreat for 12 people. The venue lists wine tastings, small meetings and private dinners as uses, and offers special arrangements on request. This suits a board dinner, a client lunch or a short working session around a table, not a conference.
For company Christmas parties, the restaurant runs a winter pop-up in front of the building, Bachofers Weihnachtswald, from November 26 to December 20, 2026, Thursday to Saturday from 5 to 10 pm and Sunday from noon to 8 pm. Company parties can be requested there.
Rooms and capacities
The restaurant seats 45 guests. The Ess-Bar, an interactive counter, adds 10 places. The private dining room on the first floor takes 12. A summer terrace is available, but the site gives no seat count for it. A cooking school also operates in the house.
Accommodation
The boutique hotel has eight design rooms, each named after a spice. There are four doubles: Kardamom at 33 square meters, Muskat at 25, Chili at 39 and Kurkuma at 31.7. Two suites are Ingwer at 35 and Safran at 47.5. Two single rooms are Honig at 19 and Wacholder at 23. This is enough for a small leadership team or a group of close guests.
Catering
The kitchen serves fine dining and a more casual menu. The catering service can bring food to another location in several formats: finger food, flying buffet, front cooking, tapas menus of four to fourteen courses with optional wine pairing, and seated dinners. The team can also help with location planning, logistics, wine advice, booking artists and decoration. A Korean barbecue concept and regular wine evenings are part of the house.
History and setting
Bachofer stands on the market square in the historic center of Waiblingen, a town the venue calls an old Staufer town. The restaurant describes its setting as a grown historic environment, and the building houses the restaurant, hotel and cooking school together.
Getting there
The address is Marktplatz 6, 71332 Waiblingen. The official site does not describe parking or public transport, so ask the team how guests should arrive when you send a request.
