Hotel Louis C. Jacob's restaurants feature a fresh, yet classical atmosphere for its traditional French cuisine complimented by regional accents.
- The highest awards of all the most important international hotel and restaurant guides are the outward signs of the most impressive "savoir cuire" that assures Jacobs Restaurant a permanent place among the leading restaurants of Germany (1 Michelin Star, 18 Points at Gault Millau). Chef de cuisine Thomas Martin?s contemporary light and fresh cuisine with French accentuation, full of fantasy, refined but not over-fashionable, and the competently stocked wine-cellar, expertly run by master sommelier, Hendrik Thoma, have all made the restaurant a hotspot for connoisseurs. The splendid view which Jacobs Restaurant affords through its high glass doors, across the Lime Tree Terrace to the Elbe, the lovingly restored murals, the stucco ceilings and the heavy crystal chandeliers create an extraordinary atmosphere which makes every visit to Jacobs Restaurant an experience, as well as lunch or dinner under the shining green of the famous Lime Tree Terrace. From here, the front row, high above the Elbe river, it is possible to experience the unforgettable sight of what has made Hamburg special and famous: the port, the ships and the wide river.
- Formal dinners in Jacobs Restaurant and small delicacies on the opposite side in the Wine Bistro Kleines Jacob ? an homage to the founder of the hotel, the French emigrant Daniel Louis Jacques. Enjoy the cosy atmosphere with the open kitchen and its large stone oven while trying the specialities from international vineyards served at clean-scrubbed wooden tables. The wine bistro is well-known to the people of Hamburg and our hotel guests. At the same time this popular "apr?s" meeting place is the ideal location to round off a successful day or a visit to a grand opera or theatre evening with good friends.
- The plush leather armchairs in Jacobs Bar tempt its guests to take a digestif, a cocktail or a glass of wine in pleasant company. The optical centre of the bar is a glass cube in which the stocks of wine are not only kept but also exhibited. Jacobs Bar is a refuge of class and tradition. Classical drinks are just as easy to find on the list as rare kinds of wine, champagne, sherry and port. A relaxing hideaway after a strenuous day.
