Franziskischlößl - Speisekarte

Came accross this castle by accident having walked along the southern wall and dying for something to drink. Menu in German and not speaking the language took a stab at something called Bratl Grotl. Turned out - one of the best courses I have ever tasted. Lovely setting and very helpful waitress.

This is a fair trek up a big hill, I would say about 1.4 Miles. It is lovely scenery though with great views of the castle and City.It is a really picturesque building with an outside eating area and several eating areas inside.The highlight for me was the Apple Strudel, which was the best I had during my stay in Austria.

Am Ende eines steilen Aufstiegs auf diesen 630 Fuß hohen Hügel liegt dieser wunderschöne Ort. Das Restaurant im Inneren ist stark biologisch und natürlich. Das Essen ist herzhaft, lecker und mit Sorgfalt und Interesse zubereitet. Die Getränke sind ausgezeichnet, der Service so freundlich und effizient ... und die Atmosphäre ist unschlagbar.

Started our walk from Salzburg , through the woods, didn't realise it's was quite as far up to the top. Met some people who had been to the very top and they convinced us we should keep going. But we were out of water , any way we continued, lovely surprise when we reached the top. What a surprise, lots of home made produce, a fortress operating as a restaurant , and a very well deserved beer.

We walked up to the top on someone's recommendation and were thrilled with this place. The views are great, the atmosphere is gorgeous and relaxing, and the food is delicious (several in our group said it was the best food they had in Salzburg). The service is wonderful too - the owner (I think he was) translated the entire menu for us and even helped us book reservations at another restaurant when he saw us struggling to do so ourselves (he called for us). Not to be missed.

On the top of the Moenchsberg, this Schloessel (little castle in German), is a little jewel...By foot, 45 min. from the old town, climbing in the wood surrounding this hill, you arrive in this beautiful place with a view on the Salzburger landscape, with a small rose garden and trees in the yard. You sit outside, away from the agitation from the old town and I enjoyed a delicious ice tea or tea. Refreshing (in the summer heat) for mind and body. I recommend strongly this hidden spot.

We went to the Christmas Market held here on weekends in December. It was one of my favorites this year. It was very quaint with a fire in the fire pit and red lap blankets on each chair. There was a food kiosk that we had a plum filled fried sandwich with powdered sugar that was beyond description. And one gift kiosk that had locally made gifts including honey made at the nearby monastery. There was a shuttle that ran from just outside the Star Hotel on Linzergasse for those that did not want to hike up. I will definitely return to this Christmas Market next year.

On a very sunny and warm Sunday we started a hike from old town over Mönchsberg towards Festung Hohensalzburg and then down to old town, switched side of river, went to Linzer Gasse and continued to Kapuzinerberg where we rested at Franziskischlössl for Lunch at 2 or nearly 3 pm. It is a very cozy, beautiful located restaurant out in the open with magnificent food, a very good menue with lots of Austrian tasty favorites for everyone. The cook cookes alone, says the menue, so the waiting time can be up to half an hour or more, but well worth the while!!! The waitresses are purely Austrian and dressed in very nice dresses, typical for Austrian Wiazhaus. A Cesar Salad comes with chicken Breast...

Meine Familie (zwei erwachsene Kinder und mein Mann) und ich verbrachten im vergangenen Dezember 2018 mehrere Tage im Franziskischlössl. Dieser alte Schlossturm, der liebevoll renoviert und mit eleganten und dennoch komfortablen Möbeln ausgestattet wurde, hat unsere Erwartungen um Längen übertroffen. Das Franziskischlössl liegt mitten in einem Naturschutzgebiet, nur 30 Gehminuten von der Altstadt Salzburgs entfernt. Die Besitzer/Verwalter dieses schönen Schlosses, Anton Gruber und Wolfgang Steinmetz, sind talentiert, liebenswürdig und hilfsbereit und haben alles getan, um sicherzustellen, dass wir einen unvergesslichen Aufenthalt hatten. Dies begann mit sehr klaren Anweisungen, wo wir in Sal...
