What is it?
The gasthaus on the Rathausplatz, Rust's square, opposite the church: for years it was called the Rusterhof and in 2025 it reopened renovated as the Kirchenwirt. An Austrian and Pannonian tavern menu, village wines and a large terrace on the square, with about ninety seats outside and seventy inside. It also has rooms.
When to go?
It is open Friday to Tuesday; it rests on Wednesday and Thursday. The kitchen serves at midday and from 18:00 to 21:00. It fits as lunch after a walk round the old town, with storks on the rooftops around. Dogs are admitted inside.
How does it fit into the day?
It is in the centre of the old town: the Fischerkirche a few steps away, and the lake ten minutes' walk along the canal. If you come by car, park at P1 or P2 and walk in.
What to order: a dish from the tavern menu with a Rust wine; in season, the November goose.
