  1. A

    Zur Schlossfreiheit

    Traditional local dishes are all given historical themes in this cosy, wood-lined restaurant. Treats include Lutherschmaus (duck breast in orange and chocolate sauce, with sultanas) and the Cranachteller (grilled pork fillets with a gratin of spirellini, mushrooms, broccoli and hollandaise sauce).

    Café Hundertwasserschule

    There's a health-conscious streak at this café - from the no-smoking policy to the vegetarian options and fresh juices - but you're still free to indulge yourself with lamb, venison, home-made cakes or beer should you choose. Hundertwasser touches are dotted around the room.

  3. Pächterhaus

    Foodies on a mission won't mind making the small detour to this gorgeously restored half-timbered farm house where seasonal and locally sourced ingredients get the gourmet treatment. In fine weather do anything to bag a table on the idyllic terrace beneath a canopy of vines.

    Brauhaus Wittenberg

    This place - with a cobbled courtyard, indoor brewery and shiny copper vats - thrums with the noise of people having a good time. The menu is hearty but also features smaller dishes for waist-watchers. Upstairs are a few simple rooms with air-con (singles/doubles €50/70).

    Liebig

    Tattooed hipsters to helmet-headed grannies, everyone loves Liebig, a trendy cafe-bar-restaurant with a large outdoor terrace. Thanks to substantive breakfasts, global fare and cool cocktails it's a good spot no matter where the hands of the clock are.

  6. Kornhaus

    In an original Bauhaus building right on the Elbe River, this place can't be beat for location, design and ambience even if the food is not terribly inspired. Dine outside on the big terrace or in the dining room with its crazily patterned carpet.

    Amsterdam

    There's a slight Italian influence detectable in the bruschetta and paninis served in this fashionable modern bistro, but the cuisine also has its Californian touches, with the likes of tuna steaks, a dedicated vegetarian selection and smoothies.

    House of Steaks Ortega

    Surrender helplessly to your inner carnivore at this woodsy pub-style eatery where you'll join a mostly local crowd tucking into yummy cuts of aged Argentine steaks. Cholesterol-watchers can choose from a variety of pizza, pasta and salads.

    Die Saison

  10. L'Appart

    The jazzy decor is a great foil for the tasty fare at this upbeat French brasserie with a nice terrace overlooking the market square and town hall. Locals in the know invade the place for the €5 weekday lunch specials.

    Tante Emmas Bier- & Caféhaus

    Take a step back to the 'good old times' in this German country kitchen, where servers wear frilly white aprons and the room is chock-full of bric-a-brac - from dolls and books to irons and a gramophone.

    Vienna

    If you thought a schnitzel is a schnitzel is a schnitzel (with apologies to Gertrude Stein), you'll know better after tucking into the huge and juicy contenders at this popular Austrian outpost.

    Café de Marc

    This French cafe with its unpretentious literary vibe is a delightful find for breakfast, java jolts or a refined calvados. When the sun's out, the idyllic courtyard is the place to be.
