; Müllner Hauptstrasse 8; mains €9.50-20; 11am-11pm)
Sizzling
and stirring since 1663, Bärenwirt is Austrian through and through. Go for hearty
Bier-
braten
(beer roast) with dumplings, locally caught trout or organic wild boar bratwurst. A
tiled oven warms the woody, hunting-lodge-style interior in winter, while the river-facing
terrace is a summer crowd-puller. The restaurant is 500m north of Museumplatz.

€€
( 43 33 203; Herrengasse 16; 5-11pm Mon-Sat)
Up cobbled Herrengasse lies this gloriously
old-world tavern, with a dark-wood interior crammed with antique curios, which attracts
a regular crowd of locals. In summer, guests spill out into the beer garden to dig into au-
thentically prepared classics such as roast pork in wheat-beer sauce.
Hagenauerstuben

; Universitätsplatz 14; 2-course lunch €6.90, mains €8-17; 9am-midnight
Mon-Sat, noon-8pm Sun)
You'd be forgiven for thinking a restaurant tucked behind Mozarts
Geburtshaus would have 'tourist trap' written all over it. Not so. The baroque-contem-
porary Hagenauerstuben combines a stylishly converted vaulted interior with a terrace
overlooking the Kollegienkirche. Pull up a chair for good old-fashioned Austrian home
cooking - pork medallions with herb mash, spinach
Knödel
and the like.
