The story
Restaurant Mumm, at Schwarzensteinweg 81 in Essen, is a Mediterranean restaurant that earned 2 Kochlöffel in the 2026 Schlemmer Atlas. The kitchen sits inside the Mintrops Land Hotel and cooks with ingredients from close to home.
Meat and fish come from carefully selected farms, and vegetables and salads are grown on site. The head chef and his creative team build contemporary dishes around the season's harvest, and specialties from further afield come from top-tier producers. The Mediterranean kitchen also accommodates special requests.
The Laubengarten room is light-filled and holds an antique three-sided fireplace at its center. A large terrace opens beside it when the weather is fine. For events, rectangular tables seat up to 80 guests. Next door, the Bistro Laiwenstuebchen serves lighter meals, beer on tap, fine wines, coffee and tea.
