A tradition of good taste began 150 years ago when The Exchange Hotel opened its doors in 1856. The Zehnder family purchased the hotel in 1927 and the tradition of good food and hospitality continues today at Zehnder's of Frankemuth

Hospitality abounds with traditional family style chicken dinners and tantalizing breads and pastries in the world-famous Zehnder's of Frankenmuth restaurant.

** Dealing with Special Diet Requests**
With the large number of guests served each day here at Zehnder's we regularly deal with special menu and diet requests. Zehnder's chefs are all required to take a 30-hour course in special diet preparation and can provide dining options for gluten free, Celiac Disease, allergies/food sensitivities and most any other kind of special request.
We know that taste preferences vary from guest to guest, so rather than having limited option special menus we prefer to work with each guest based on their likes and dislikes. Many of our regular menu choices can be easily modified to conform to your special requests. After all, we make everything "from scratch" so altering a particular dish to meet your requirements is quite simple. Just let your server know what your preferences are and we'll gladly help you with menu options.
