Restaurant Review: Gasthof zur Traube (Mauthausen, Austria)

Gasthof zur Traube

After our tour of the Mauthausen Memorial, we had a late lunch at the family-run, cozy and fine Gasthof zur Traube (translated as “restaurant to the grape”).  

Run by the friendly Gen. Manager Andreas Ortner and his wife Monica, the restaurant is located within a historic, approximately 500 year old family house located directly in the center of Mauthausen, along the Danube Cycle Path (B3).

Wiener Schnitzel

Opened in 1987, it offers good, down-to-earth, unpretentious but more than satisfying Austrian cuisine such as a delicious and crunchy Viennese cutlet with succulent puree and the classic Wiener Schnitzel.

They also offer vegetarian cuisine, selected wines, well-tapped beers and coffee specialties, Service was friendly, nice and fast and you can have a beautiful view of the Danube River, across the road, while dining.

The building also houses a simple, bike-friendly guesthouse with 19 rooms with bath, TV and phone and 35 beds. Rates: single (48,00 - 70,00 €), double (70,00 - 90,00 €).   The rates include a filling buffet breakfast of breads, meats, cheeses and jam. The restaurant is approximately 1.5 - 2 kms. from the train station.
