The restaurant of the Hotel zur Post, a house of the Ebner family on the street leading off Melk's main square. Traditional Austrian cooking, with a reasonably priced dish of the day at midday, a short menu in the afternoon and a full menu in the evening. The Baroque dining room has frescoed ceilings.

How does it fit into the day?
If you do the Wachau by train and boat, Melk is the western end: you arrive from Vienna by train, see the abbey in the morning, eat here and take the afternoon boat downriver to Krems.
