Heurigen & Buschenschank Guide 2025: Top 10 Best Cuisine

Domäne Wachau
The new Heurigen and Buschenschankguide 2025 highlights some of Austria's best kitchens. The Kellerschlössel-Heurige Domäne Wachau secured the top spot this year, sharing the honor with Pulker's Heurigen.

The Schanktage (signs) in front of the pleasure palace are as rare as they are magnificent. Inside, the lamps of the historic building light up, outside, the eyes of wine lovers light up: vintage depth and vineyard wines from Domäne Wachau, exquisite wines from "Friends". And the cuisine is just as good!

Dürnstein 107, 3601 Dürnstein, Austria

Bernd Pulker's oasis of pleasure in an idyllic location has long since ceased to be an insider tip, and the seats in the middle of the vineyard are extremely popular. No wonder: exciting wines of his own and the best from his colleagues - plus a home-made roast that is second to none.

Rührsdorfer Kellergasse, 3602 Rührsdorf, 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.

Hauptstraße 31, 7063 Oggau on Lake Neusiedl, Austria

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.

Stammersdorfer Kellergasse 131, 1210 Vienna, Austria

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!

Langackergasse 5A, 1190 Vienna, Austria

While Matthias Hager's wines also benefit from the diversity of the soils, his brother Hermann demonstrates his skills in the kitchen of the modern wine tavern with its marvellous view: classic dishes with exotic nuances provide exciting counterpoints.

Altweg 5, 3562 Mollands, Austria

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.

Flachbergstraße 16, 3441 Freundorf, Austria

This modern winery is not only visually appealing, but also a repository of flavour. Delicious wines along with homemade vermouth and juices accompany a refreshingly creative cuisine: from beef salad to char ceviche and smoked kohlrabi.

Pichla bei Radkersburg 58, 8355 Tieschen, Austria

It is a rural world away from everyday life that is cultivated by the renowned Artner family of winegrowers and restaurateurs. In the old barn, delicacies are recommended to accompany the wines. Analogous to the wine line "Punk's Finest" spoken: Carnuntum's Finest!

Dorfstraße 43, 2465 Höflein, Austria

A Viennese parade tavern, as there are not many: the location with a view over the whole of Vienna is breathtakingly beautiful, Fritz Wieninger's wines are among the absolute top class and the buffet is rich in top gastronomic products. What more could you want?

Eichelhofweg 125, 1190 Vienna, Austria
