What are you celebrating?
Every occasion gets its own evening.
A 50th birthday feels different from a Christmas party with the team. That’s why we don’t do ready-made packages. Tell us what you’re celebrating and we’ll suggest how the evening could look.

Birthday
One long table for everyone, a menu to your taste and time for the speeches. From a sparkling wine reception in the Spital garden to the dance floor in the vaulted hall.

How we plan
First we listen, then we cook.
Every party here starts with a conversation: what are you celebrating, who’s coming, how should the evening feel? From that we put together your proposal, from the aperitif to the last drink.
We’re not a hall with a caterer, we’re a restaurant with our own kitchen. We’ve been hosts in the historic Spital since 2021, and you have one contact person from the first email to the evening itself. A theme is welcome too: an Italian evening, a menu for anyone who loves the South of France, or a little culinary trip around the world.
The spaces
Indoors, outdoors and a plan B with a roof.
In the green
Spital garden
Right in the old town, yet in a garden. For a sparkling wine reception and aperitif in the open air.
Plan B
Chapel
Right next to the restaurant. If the weather doesn’t play along, we move the reception or ceremony in here.
Your evening
This is how it could look for you.
A suggestion, not a programme. How long, how festive, how loud: that’s up to you.

Reception & aperitif
Sparkling wine and nibbles in the Spital garden while everyone trickles in.
- Early evening
Dinner in the vaulted hall
Festive set menu, build-your-own menu or flying buffet, served by our team.

Food
Three ways to your menu.
Everything comes from our own kitchen, seasonal and often with produce from the region. For vegetarians and vegans we’re happy to cook an equally lovely alternative, and if anyone has allergies, we’ll agree beforehand exactly what’s possible.
Mix and match
Build-your-own menu
3 courses from about €59 per person
Starters as a sharing buffet at the table, a main course served at your seat, dessert in a jar. Each component has its own price, you pay for what you choose.
Served at the table
Festive set menu
from about €79 per person
Three courses at long tables. Starters and dessert as a generous table buffet, two dishes to choose from for the main course, usually meat and vegetarian.
e.g. burrata & beef tartare · beef two ways or risotto · crème brûlée
Relaxed
Flying buffet
for up to 90 guests
Instead of set courses, lots of small dishes, each one eaten with a single piece of cutlery. Ideal when you’d rather party than sit.
e.g. tartare in a cone · braised ox cheek & polenta · little chocolate cake
Good to know
What a party here costs.
We calculate every party individually, and at the end you get a clear figure with no hidden costs. As a rough guide in advance, all prices including VAT:
Drinks
As a flat rate or by consumption, whatever suits you. From experience, €35 – 40 per person for five to seven hours.
Service included
5 hours of service with the full team, table setting and menu cards in zwölf87 design. After that €100 per hour, from midnight €150. Drinks flat rates apply to the booked time; during extra hours we charge drinks by consumption.
Minimum spend
Wednesday and Thursday €2,000, Friday €2,500, Saturday €3,000 (May to September €4,500). If it isn’t reached, we charge the difference as room hire. We host parties from Wednesday to Saturday: Sunday is brunch day, and we’re closed on Monday and Tuesday.
Flowers & cake
We plan flowers and table decorations with our florist to suit you. You’re welcome to bring the cake, or we can put you in touch with a pâtissière.
Peace of mind
A deposit is due on booking. You only need to give us the final number of guests 10 days beforehand.
Overnight stay
22 renovated rooms in our hotel, three minutes’ walk away. We’re happy to hold a block of rooms for your guests.
You’ll find the full details with sample menus in our brochures.

Guests who celebrated here
What they say afterwards.
We celebrated my milestone birthday … at Restaurant Zwölf87 with 61 guests … and were really taken with how well everything went. … We were also delighted by how confidently, attentively and unobtrusively the restaurant team looked after us through the evening. Many thanks to Kevin and Ruben for the friendly and thoughtful advice beforehand, the uncomplicated organisation and their willingness to accommodate special requests.
After a long search we decided to celebrate our wedding at zwölf87, and we weren’t disappointed. … Whether it was the first contact, the planning or the day itself, there’s nothing we could fault. A beautiful venue, excellent food and a … capable team.
Google reviews of the restaurant: 4,8 out of 5 (269 reviews)
Real words from guests who have celebrated with us, shortened with “…”. The ratings come from Google and Bridebook; we don’t check them any further ourselves.
And if it gets late
Your guests sleep three minutes’ walk away.
Our hotel in Schulgasse has 22 rooms, self check-in from 15:00, arrive as late as you like. Anyone coming from further away can simply stay the night. We’re happy to hold a block of rooms for your group.
What hosts ask us beforehand
How many people do we need to have the venue to ourselves?
From about 20 people, an evening of your own makes sense. Up to 75 guests for a set menu, up to 90 for a flying buffet. In the evening the restaurant is only open for private events, so you have it all to yourselves.
What does a party with you cost?
That depends on the number of guests, food and drinks. As a guide: build-your-own menu from about €59, festive set menu from about €79 per person, drinks usually €35 – 40 per person. On top of that, a minimum spend applies depending on the day of the week. After our first chat you’ll get a quote listing every item.
Do you also host Christmas parties and company parties?
Yes, gladly. On your evening the vaulted hall belongs to your team alone, and the bill goes to the company. Sample menus, prices and the Christmas brochure are on our page Christmas and company parties.
How long can we party?
5 hours of service are included in the menu price. After that we charge by the hour, and the party ends at 2:00 at the latest.
Can we bring our own drinks or a cake?
The cake, gladly: we’ll store and serve it. Your favourite wine too, with a corkage fee of €20 per bottle. We plan flowers and decorations with our florist.
Do children eat with us?
Of course. Children get their own children’s menu or a smaller portion of the chosen menu.
When do we need to confirm the number of guests?
We need the final number 10 days before the party. Until then, the rough size from your enquiry is fine.
Can our guests stay overnight with you?
Yes. Our hotel is three minutes’ walk away, 22 rooms, self check-in from 15:00, arrive as late as you like. For parties we can hold a block of rooms on request.
Do you also do off-site catering?
Yes, for 20 to 100 people at your own venue: finger food from €14, buffet from €34 per person, fresh from our kitchen, delivered or for collection, with set-up and service if you like. Allow around two weeks notice. Everything else is in the catering brochure (PDF, German).
Is the restaurant open as usual in the evening?
No. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and brunch (closed Mon & Tue). There’s no à la carte dinner in the evening; that’s when the venue is there for your party.
Our own evenings
Rather come as a guest first?
A few times a year we host evenings ourselves, for example the goose dinner in November. There are also cooking classes at the hotel. A good way to get to know the place and the kitchen.
