A Hamilton landmark since 1967, the Black Forest Inn has earned the reputation of serving the best in Austrian, German and Continental cuisine. The menu includes Schnitzel selected from six European countries, and during the summer months a "Biergarten" menu is available on the outdoor patio. Chef Wolfgang serves up daily luncheon and dinner specials, and on this web site shares some of his recipes with us. A peek at the photo gallery will give you an idea of the cozy European ambience, which combined with great food and good value, ensure that the Black Forest Inn continues to be one of Hamilton's most popular restaurants.more...See more text

amazing food, this place is a real treat, the black forest plate is great for first timers as it gives you a lot of variety, its my favorite. the food is high quality and has a home made taste amazing goulash as well
After 20 years, living in a very German community (Kitchener-Waterloo), it was nice to find a nearby German/Austrian restaurant after moving to Burlington.
The decor is delightful, our waitress very friendly and the food was SEHR GUT!!
However, beware of the schnitzel.
It's humongous!! At least 12" across :^)
Go to this restaurant on a regular basis at least once a week, good food, great service, friendly staff and owners on site, Have not had a bad meal since we started coming here 4 years ago. Good, food and wine, beer selection. have taken friends here when occasion arises. Travel from Burlington just to have a meal here. Great keep up the good work.
My family and I have been coming to the Black Forest Inn (Schwarzwaldhaus) for decades, and it's a tradition for special events such as birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and so on. It has continued to be our favourite restaurant throughout the years, and never disappoints.
The atmosphere is fantastic, with an Austrian/German decor that gives one an authentic European feel. The restaurant itself, from the dining rooms, to the washrooms, to the cutlery is utterly spotless. Different seating areas feature both tables and booths with plenty of room and privacy.
The staff is excellent, with friendly and attentive waitresses, great cooks, and efficient service. I usually see the owner and his wife on hand, whether greeting guests or working in the kitchen, which is big plus.
The restaurant features a large menu with all the standard fare from Germany, Austria, and Central Europe. It may not be fancy, but this authentic, home-cooked European cuisine is the best around. Prices are very reasonable.
I am the third generation of my family to count the Black Forest Inn as my favourite dining establishment, and will continue to do so as it lives up to its reputation as a landmark of Hamilton.
