"Sunday Opening" Bars in Salzburg
Japanese gin and the local Sporer Bitter are no contradiction at Stani Fürst and Attila Szelhoffer. From their own sodas (Melon-Gaudi) to spicy syrups, they are dedicated to expanding their guests' taste buds. From Spritz, rethought, to the Punch Bowl for sharing: Schallmoos is ready!
The creative slogans on the slate at Platzl bring a smile to the faces of guests and passers-by alike. The bar team knows what it's doing - whether classic or more unusual, such as the Old Cuban Champagne cocktail. In summer, the garden opposite the Staatsbrücke is a meeting place for guests and locals alike.
There is also a new cocktail menu for the reopening of the luxury resort. It features a number of key cocktails and many excellent specials and signatures. Refreshingly different: the Caramba with tequila, passoã, grapefruit and salt. The high-quality non-alcoholic variants (Hibiscus Fizz) are also impressive.
In the Madreiter family's extravagant but very cozy "living room", everything revolves around first-class drinks and spirits. The latter include their own house brand, "Lions Spirits", created by Siegfried Herzog. But the selection of aperitifs and digestifs, cocktails, whisk(e)y, rum and gin is also impressive.
Exceptional, stylish, sophisticated: on the upper floor of the Hangar-7 Gesamtkunstwerk, guests are treated to exclusive cocktails and drinks, such as signatures like the Pink Lady with Hangar-7's own gin and grapefruit liqueur. The selected classics are just as impressive as (sparkling) wine cocktails and virgins.
Perhaps the most beautiful bar menu in the country brings together Daniel Hatzer's own creations. The "essences of the surroundings" always play a leading role, including those from senior manager Ella Altenberger's herb garden. The signature cocktail remains the "Birchwood Negroni" with its smoky, tart-sweet flavour profile.
Amadeus meets agave! Bar manager Andreas Portz shows off his skills with drinks such as the "Strawberry Fields forever" (mezcal and buttermilk!). The pistachio-chocolate-vodka mix "The Mozart Identity" indulges the genius loci of Salzburg. Even society appreciates the bold concept in this dignified space: cocktail festivals all year round!
With a view of the fortress and old town, this is the perfect place to end the day. Among the recommendations are specials such as "Salzburg Lemonade" with bourbon and St. Germain liqueur. The selection of Champagne is particularly large, but you can also choose from the (high-quality) full range of high-proof spirits.
You don't even know where to look first: the design of the bar is extraordinary, the view of nature through the large glass windows is impressive. The cocktails from the experienced bar team are also a feast for the eyes, such as the signature drinks inspired by the Alps, like the "A & O" with rum, Almdudler and thyme.
Guests at the botanical bar are given hemp drops to combat stress as well as an "overdose of vacation". The latter tastes of elderflower and is one of bar manager Tom Fix's own creations. As head mixologist, he even gives the good old margarita the taste of "Loigom" aka Leogang.
In the mountains of Leogang, the focus is on imaginative signatures, such as "High Mountains" with apricot brandy and apple flavour, as well as modern interpretations of classics such as Espresso Martini with Kahlua. The pleasure experience is rounded off with gin and tonics, natural wines, long drinks and sours as well as high-quality spirits.
Inside or outside? Not an easy decision with the beautifully staged, cozy bar area of the 4-star superior hotel. Timeless classics are mixed with expertise and promise visual and taste highlights. The friendly team is well-versed and happy to accommodate guests' cocktail requests.
The dialectal pronunciation of Leogang - Loigam - is reflected in the name of the gin and other in-house specialties in the bar located in the middle of the room. The recipes (rum-mango lassi) and the names of the drinks are just as witty and relaxed. How about a "Guaten Mama" after the Asitz summit storm?
A real institution in the city of Mozart. The quaint bar with a medieval flair has many regulars. This is down to the long-standing boss Stillianos "Stelios" Issaris - and the solid quality of the predominantly classic cocktails and drinks. There is also bar food, and on weekends there is dancing in a very small space.
From aperitif to digestif - the charming bar exudes the charm of times gone by. Take a seat at the long bar or on the upholstered furniture. Classic and Caribbean-inspired cocktails dominate the menu. The sparkling versions are also very good, such as the Moulin Rouge with apricot brandy, gin and Champagne.
The Flip is an evergreen on the Salzburg scene. Students crowd into the small bar alongside tourists and locals. Not only are the guests diverse, but so are the cocktails - from Espresso Martini to "Pirate's Passion" with Captain Morgan and Passoã to the "Crazy Cherry" with gin and brandy.
Living room, bar and relaxed meeting place for foodies - that's what Luke's stands for. A casual and friendly concept that works. Regionality is not only a priority on the menu, but also in the drinks - from Austrian spirits to local ingredients for the fine cocktails.
Under the blue sky: in the panorama restaurant and bar of the hotel on the outskirts of the city, you are virtually at eye level with the Salzburg mountains. The glasses are mainly filled with all-time classics - from Negroni to Cosmopolitan - but also finely mixed exotics. There is a good selection of non-alcoholic cocktails and a separate wine list.
Daimler's on Giselakai, is an institution in Mozart’s city of Salzburg. The grill and bar concept has worked for many years - enjoy a burger in the grill and then turn night into day in the bar. The bar team supports you with fine drinks à la "Vodka Wellness" or "London Mule". Happy hour until 11 pm.
The cocktail shaker has been held high at Priesterhausgasse 14 for many years. The bar's relaxed charm has always attracted students, but older students also feel at home here. The selection of drinks is extensive, the cocktails are well mixed and the prices are low by Mozartstadt standards.
