"Warm Dishes" Wineries in Austria
A breath of fresh air every year: the now pop-up heuriger keeps moving. In 2025, the MAST team led by Matthias Pitra and Steve Breitzke provides fresh impetus. Natural wines, home-grown vegetables and, of course, the much-loved Leberkäse.
A parade wine tavern like few others. It's not just the award-winning wines that delight guests here. The classic tavern cuisine also delivers excellent dishes far removed from the usual. Traditional ambience, beautiful garden.
Always a pleasure! Helmut Krenek in the kitchen creates top-class tavern dishes. The fried chicken and roast pork could not be better. Served with organic wines from the Göbel winery, which go perfectly with this cuisine.
The spaciousness of the garden and guest rooms symbolises the variety of wines on offer; there is a glass for everyone, from the sparkling prelude to the "Zistl" and the flagship Rotgipfler "Rodauer". Seasonal specialities provide the "base".
The sisters are a little deep with their own description: "Traditional Heurigen food, combined with our regional wines". Because with ideas and passion, it becomes a top address. The latest coup is the themed wine tavern "Brot & Sprudel".
Jutta Ambrositsch is not only a great winemaker, she has also turned this tavern into a real cult wine tavern. No kitsch, products from top producers for the buffet and wines that have a special signature. This is how a wine tavern works!
A parade business in the border area between inn and wine tavern. Fritz Wieninger's top wines are served with dishes such as paprika chicken with buttered spaetzle or veal cheeks in Pinot Noir sauce. And to finish, a gigantically good curd cheese pancake.
Gourmets, this way! Top wines and Matthias Schütz's exquisite cuisine with Austro-French touches await you, either à la carte or as a creative seasonal menu. It's best to stay longer, as the rooms and breakfast are also impressive.
Johanna "Pipsi" Gebeshuber bustles around between the horse stables and the Römermaut, in two parlours of the elongated courtyard. The born hostess makes sure that the fried chicken and oven roast taste good. Or she makes sure that the Zierfandler doesn't run out. Perfect!
The wines are reason enough for many to come here. In the kitchen, down-to-earth meets modern - in keeping with the contemporary design. For example, the lentil salad is sometimes classic, sometimes Asian-inspired. Top game specialities await in autumn.
With a view towards Hungary, surrounded by valuable vineyards, the Wachter-Wiesler family offer their award-winning, recently certified organic wines and tasty specialities in their wine tavern. Tip: guided tour of the winery.
Honest home cooking with sophistication is served, complemented by Pannonian delicacies such as a genuine Szeged goulash, which is rarely found today. The large, seasonal selection is just as impressive as the consistently high quality.
A truly idyllic spot in the heart of Carnuntum: under walnut trees, surrounded by vineyards, you sit on simple wooden benches and enjoy the restaurant's own organic wines and unadulterated Heurigen classics. Cult-suspected caraway roast from the wood-fired oven.
Wonderful garden with oleander and shady trees. In addition to a rich Heurigen buffet, chickens and ducks are grilled here on advance order, and in autumn there are also roast geese. The organic wines are of reliable quality.
A dream location in the heart of Dürnstein! You can experience for yourself how the location affects the flavour with the vineyards as a backdrop to a glass of Veltliner and Riesling. Snacks and pub favourites now play the second leading role in the Heurigen all year round.
Grandad once turned the cowshed into a wine cellar. Today, the lovingly renovated Schenk'haus is a veritable gem - just like the wines of "rosé queen" Pia Strehn, an unconventional but motivated sous-chef. Attention: only a few dates!
An exceptional wine tavern! The focus is on home-made delicacies from the Mangalitza pigs that are kept on the farm: various bacon specialities from loin to lardo as well as blunze and liver spread. There is also good wine from the house and from friends to accompany the pork.
If you don't know Günter Mittermayr's cuisine, the ‘mouflon curry’ is usually enough to get your attention for the extraordinary Heurigen. The apricot dumplings are an absolute must. And the Grüner Veltliner called ‘Black Sheep’ flows into the glass.
Three generations are involved - the first non-alcoholic wine also moved in with the partners in the traditionally female-run Heurigen. For traditionalists, there is still the poppy seed cake and the buffet, where you can find companions for "In den Haberln" and co.
The Zechhaus is a promise. The menu that Sabine Krug and her team offer is huge. While some come for a glass of "temptation", others swear by the apple strudel. For 55 years, body and soul have been catered for in this historic location. Bravo!
