What is it?
The former gamekeeper's house, at the foot of the castle, turned into a restaurant and completely renovated in 2009. The dining room follows the archduke's taste: a large portrait of him, trophies of stag, bear and beaver, Black Forest cuckoo clocks and an orchestrion more than a hundred years old that still works. The kitchen team represented Czech cuisine at several world fairs.
What to order
Game, as is fitting: game pâté, pheasant consommé, venison goulash, venison with rosehip sauce and knedlíky, roast pheasant or wild boar. For four there is a platter of meats. For dessert, old-style Czech pancakes. It is dearer than a tavern, but it is the meal the visit calls for.
When is it open?
Every day from 11:00: until 21:00 Sunday to Thursday and until 22:00 on Friday and Saturday. Book on its website or by phone; at weekend lunchtimes it is advisable. It is a couple of steps from the castle; to park, use the car parks at the park entrance.
What to order: the game goulash or the venison with rosehip sauce, and the Czech pancakes for dessert.
