Enjoy Salzburg: The best restaurants, bars and wine bars

Although Salzburg is not a big city, the best places are quickly occupied. So be sure to reserve a table before you go!

1. restaurant paradox 

A modern interpretation of Austrian classics. Say hello to talented chef Martin and crew when you drop by. Get ready to eat and drink the best that Salzburg has to offer.

2. mountain pine innkeeper 

A bit out of town but definitely worth a visit. Traditional Austrian cuisine and meat from local game. An idyllic cabin with the option to eat inside or outside.

3. the cabreras

If you want to try something different, visit this Mexican restaurant in the heart of the city, just a stone's throw from the Mirabell Gardens. Start with homemade tortilla chips, guacamole, and margaritas.

4. magazine

A modern European restaurant complex with an integrated wine and design store. Sit in the wine cellar downstairs, on the upstairs balcony or in the garden area - which turns into a bar in the evening. The perfect choice for wine lovers.

5. kombu sushi

Classic, traditional Japanese sushi creations meet international cuisine. Modernly interpreted, recombined and deliciously prepared at the highest level.

6th St. Peter Abbey Culinarium

The oldest restaurant in Europe. Visit it for history and traditional Austrian cuisine (or for the outdoor champagne bar). It also serves as a worthy venue for the famous Mozart dinner concerts.

Salzburg's best bars and locations for wine and cocktails

Where you can get a good wine in Salzburg or just enjoy a drink at the bar in a casual atmosphere - see for yourself!

1. hangar 7 

A must for every visitor to Salzburg, either because of the outdoor lounge where you can sit outside and eat and drink until sunset, or because of the MayDay Bar after dark. Did we mention it's a real hangar full of Red Bull planes and vehicles?

2. stone terrace

If you want to see the city from one of the best views, you can go through the lobby of the Stein Hotel, turn right and take the elevator to the roof terrace on the roof of the hotel. There you can sit outside, order a "Hugo" cocktail and enjoy the view of the city. It's actually the postcard view you saw on Google.

3. mentors

After dark, you should visit a small cocktail bar serving the best mixed drinks in Salzburg. There's always something going on here and it's teeming with locals.
