Austrian restaurants in Tirol

  1. A

    Stern

    This lounge and restaurant gets a clientele from the very young hanging out on the psychologist’s couches and postmodern sofas during the day to a mixed crowd that comes here to feed on steak – its speciality (though Stern also does wok and salad dishes). The steaks are fine, but don’t always live up to the lengthy check list you fill out to order one, and the chef certainly doesn’t mess around with his meat when you tick ‘well done’.

    Restaurant Pasta Bistro

    This restaurant and vinothek set in a cosy, vaulted room offers an unusual menu of fish specialities alongside fresh, gourmet baguettes (as a main course) and a selection of salads and pastas (with about 16 different sauces). There are also a couple of meat and vegetarian dishes available.

  3. Metzgerei Kröll

    This family-run butchery is famed for its unique Schlegeis-Speck ham, cured in a hut at 1800m for three months to achieve its aroma. There are a handful of tables where you can sample this speciality and the delicious homemade sausages.

  4. Hotel Schrofenstein

    Schrofenstein’s restaurant dishes up Austrian classics from veal goulash to spinach Spätzle (egg noodles) in wood-panelled surroundings. When the sun’s out, pull up a chair on the chestnut tree-shaded terrace.

  5. Wirtshaus Zum Griena

    Set in high pastures, this woodsy 400-year-old chalet is the kind of place where you pray for a snow blizzard, so you can huddle around the fire and tuck into Schlutzkropf’n (fresh pasta filled with cheese).

    Adlerstüberl Restaurant

    Adler­stüberl is the grandaddy of Lienz, where grizzled locals put the world to rights over beer, humungous schnitzels and plates of piping goulash. Find a cosy nook in one of the vaulted rooms and join them.
