Auberge du Zoo, French restaurant near Zoo and Botanical Park, Mulhouse, France
Auberge du Zoo is a restaurant housed in a traditional Alsatian building with a glass-enclosed garden room in Mulhouse. The establishment features a dining room with seating for many guests plus a garden terrace overlooking the adjacent zoo grounds.
The building was completed in 1902 following designs by architect Joseph Trumm and served originally as a venue for concerts and cultural events. Over time it evolved into a dining space, taking advantage of its location near the zoo.
The restaurant serves regional Alsatian dishes made with ingredients sourced from local producers in the area. The kitchen reflects the eating traditions of the region, shaped by both German and French culinary influences.
The restaurant sits directly next to the zoo, making it easy for visitors to reach and explore the grounds afterward. The garden accommodates both warm and cooler weather since the winter garden area is covered.
The restaurant's name references its proximity to the neighboring zoo, with which the venue has been linked for decades. Diners can watch the zoo gardens while eating and observe activity in the adjoining park grounds.
