Brauhaus Mariazell

The house

A brewery pub on Mariazell's main street, two minutes' walk from the basilica, with several wood-panelled dining rooms, traditional and modern at once. It is also the restaurant of the Montestyria hotel, run by the same owners. The beer carries the name of the house.

What to order

The cooking is Styrian and works with local producers: game from the Teichmühle hunting grounds, veal from the Eiblbauer farm, seasonal mushrooms, snails from the Gugumuck farm. The dish that goes out most is the Wiener Schnitzel fried in clarified butter, with hand-cut potato salad. The Wurzelfleisch, boiled pork with root vegetables and horseradish, is the winter classic. For dessert, Bröselnudeln, pasta with toasted breadcrumbs and compote.

When to go

Open Wednesday to Sunday. From Wednesday to Saturday there is food at midday and in the evening; on Sunday, midday only, from 11:00 to 14:00, so arrive early if you are going back on the afternoon train. For Monday and Tuesday it publishes no hours. In November 2026 it is closed for holidays until the 18th and reopens on the 19th, the first day of Advent.
