Brewery "Augustiner". Where to eat in Salzburg (Austria)

Surprisingly, despite the fact that Salzburg is the fourth largest city in Austria, the nightlife in the city is rather non-diverse, so provincial and not very interesting by international standards of club life. This is a city without big clubs, but with a lot of small and cozy bars and pubs. Although, they are not even bad, it should be noted! In order to travel at night, you can use a taxi or a night city bus called NachtStern and another bus called bustaxi- they depart from various places in the city center almost every hour (on weekends, these buses run until 3 am). The cost of the trip is 4.50 euros (and it will be cheaper than a taxi), no matter how far you travel. A big plus is that BusTaxi also reaches the nearest villages in the vicinity of Salzburg. So, if you settled not in the center, but rented a cozy house somewhere near the city, you are in luck. For more information about these buses, please contact your hotel, the office of the Salzburg public transport company Verkehrsverbung or the tourist information office.

Returning to places for entertainment, it should be noted that all entertainment establishments can be divided into two groups. First, there are traditional bars and pubs in Salzburg. Some of them are very unusual, a la anti-mainstream, which is very cool.

Secondly, you pretend to be in a city with a vibrant nightlife and go to pseudo-pretentious bars and clubs that look like fancy clubs in central London, but these establishments are usually not very crowded. Such places usually hang out with stylish law students, fashionistas and rich kids from the surrounding villages.

The best pubs and bars in Salzburg are concentrated in a few areas, but above all, it is worth noting the region Altstadt(Old town or city center). May draw your attention to areas such as Rudolfskai and Giselakai(here are the main noisy and crowded bars) and the Gstattengasse street with nearby streets. On the other side of the river, head north Steingasse and Linzergasse streets until you reach the so-called Andräviertel and Bruderhof Court(next to the St. Sebastian Institute). These parts of the city offer a wide variety of places in the two categories described above. A quick look at the patrons who stand at the entrance to the bar, the decoration of the facade and the music coming from the club will tell you which group this or that bar belongs to. Large nightclubs can be found on the outskirts of the city; like everywhere else in the world, they are localized in complexes with cinemas and shopping centers. The area next to the main train station also offers several nightclubs and noisy bars.

Well, on a summer evening, you can just buy a beer and sit by the river Salzach- this is probably much better than any bars. More than 20,000 students live and study in Salzburg, so the city can be called a youth city, and all these students also like to soak up the beach after couples. The most crowded and picturesque places are in Altstadt between the Karolinenbrücke and Lehenerbrücke bridges, and you can also stay near Uberfuhrsteg.

And finally, here are some of the best places to visit in this cozy city.

Gastronomic tours in Salzburg

As part of a gastronomic tour of the city, an accompanying guide will take you to various dining establishments. So, in authentic coffee houses you will be able to taste a variety of coffee (“melange coffee”, “big brown”, “cabman's coffee”) and the most delicious confectionery in the form of Esterhazy cake, apple pie, Mozart cake.

In Salzburg, you can visit Mozart's house, Hohensalzburg Castle and Mirabell Palace, walk along small streets and squares, look into authentic food establishments where you can taste national cuisine.

Many cities in Austria have Michelin starred restaurants, the chefs are just happy to live here and make sausage, schnapps and strudel. The city of Salzburg is one of the main tourist centers and the fourth largest city in the country.

Austrians are proud of their country. After all, Austria was an empire. Hungary, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Romania - the Austrians took all the best from these countries. Salzburg joined the Habsburg Empire rather late. The city, together with the region that surrounds it, was an independent state until 1816.

It was ruled by gloomy Roman Catholic princes. They skillfully avoided the Thirty Years' War, which devastated northern Europe more than World War II. They spent the state income - mostly from the salt mines that give the city its name - on gilded baroque architecture, court music and, even more piquantly, on mistresses. Mirabell Castle, in whose gardens The Sound of Music was filmed, was built specifically for Salome Alt, the mistress of Prince Archbishop Wolf Dietrich von Reitenau, with whom she had children.

Despite the late division of Austria, Salzburg is now considered the culinary capital of the world. There are more Michelin stars and Gomillo hats here than anywhere else in Europe. famous restaurants Esszimmer , Riedenburg And Pfefferschiff are to be commended for their contemporary French cuisine.

Salzburg has many places to delight those who travel through Austria in the culinary delights.

It is a city built according to the decrees of the prince-archbishops, with bizarre patterns in architecture as white as meringue, unimaginably beautiful rosettes. It seems as if it was designed by an art confectioner, as if the architects secretly sought to create not churches, but cakes.


In the mirror shine of the cafe Tomaselli where Mozart once made hot chocolate, waiters dressed in antique shirts serve pot-bellied glasses of einsp?nner- strong black coffee with whipped cream - on marble tables. Behind them sit the regulars, whose mink-trimmed coats hang on the walnut-panelled walls like hunting trophies.

Waitresses in white aprons, dancing a foxtrot on polished parquet floors, carry trays of sweets: swollen schlotfeger- roll with chocolate icing and cream inside, sticky pieces salzburger nockerl, the white spicy soufflé invented by Salome Alt, and, of course, the delicate layered strudel.

Strudel is one of Austria's most famous culinary gifts to the world.

In fact, he comes from Hungary. The locals have mastered the production of the thin dough used in baklava by their unfriendly neighbors, the Turks, and have made such a delicious fruit pie.


The best strudel, according to many, is filled with cool cottage cheese and Morello cherry puree.

Japanese tourists crowd Caf? Konditorei F?rst . The most famous treat in Salzburg is created here - Mozartkugel- a golf ball-sized chocolate ball filled with pistachio marzipan and nougat, wrapped with a portrait of the great musician.


It was invented in 1890.

The pleasant smell of cinnamon and caramelized sugar comes from the stalls selling kaiserschmarrn, bombardino and warm eggnog diluted with rum.

The local market sprawls along a curved, cobbled street around University Square. Vegetarian stalls laden with Jerusalem artichokes and artichokes, giant white horseradish, cigar-shaped kipfler potatoes. Everything is decorated so richly, as if invented by architects from the 17th century.


Nearby stalls sell fat farm ducks, smoked golden trout from the Salzach River, venison, dried sausage and kletzenbrot- hearty, dark, confectionery bread with fruit, more like a cake.

Just around the corner, close to the Goldener Hirsch hotel, another famous Salzburg restaurant - Balkan Grill . It's in a covered alley between dainty shops selling Italian wool blazers, Swiss timepieces with huge dials, amber necklaces and finely crafted lingerie with handmade Belgian lace. The line that represents the perfect division of Salzburg society, from wealthy pensioners in cashmere to workers in splattered overalls, pass right here.

In the restaurant, a wiry man in a worn white apron cooks sausages, buns, toast and toppings in the old-fashioned electric fryer in the Bosnian tradition. This is an imported delicacy from the Balkan provinces, as the name suggests. Served in a long bun with onion, finely chopped parsley and curry, beef sausage is a spicy beer-specific appetizer and probably not the best first date treat.

In an attempt to find a dish without onions, head up the Mönchsberg mountain. This is one of the three mountains from which you can view Salzburg. Nearby you will find a cozy terrace next to the Museum of Modern Art. From here, it is easy to understand why in the era of romanticism, the location of Salzburg was compared with Naples and Istanbul. The river turns lazily through meadows where cattle graze towards rocky mountains covered with snow, while the spiers and domes of the city sparkle in the sunlight.


Life in Austria is sedate, so it's not surprising that those who get tired of just walking can take the funicular and ride back to the city from the top of the Mönchsberg. The stop is located near Stiftsb?ckerei St. Peter, where dark, porous bread sourdoughs have been baked in a wood-fired oven since the 1100s.

It's time to try the incredible pumpkin soup, which smells so good on autumn days that you can even smell the leaves. For the second, we recommend steaming vegetable goulash with dumplings, pickled cucumbers and fried sausages in the shape of a crown.

Walk back along the Getreidegasse, past shops with signs saying they serve glög and gingerbread. At the end is Carpe Diem Finest Fingerfood , modern bar-restaurant. It is the brainchild of Dietrich Mateschitz, creator of the Red Bull energy drink and owner of the Red Bull Racing Formula 1 team. In recent years, he has revitalized the gastronomic life of the city, bringing glitz and glamour to the place.


In a futuristic restaurant Ikarus in Hangar-7, where exhibition areas are located dedicated to the collection of shiny cars and Mateschitz aircraft, rock stars of the culinary world - Xavier Pellicer, Nuno Mendes, Bj?rn Frantz?n perform. Even before the advent of wasabi cream, sancho peppers and Asian pears, it was clear that, in addition to strudel and schnapps, food in Salzburg is a thermonuclear mixture from the world's culinary.
