Johanneskeller im Priesterhaus

Salzburg


Full of cosy nooks and crannies, this brick-vaulted cellar is reached via a steep flight of stairs. The menu is succinct but well thought out, with mains swinging from classic Austrian – like Styrian pork roast with dumplings and sauerkraut – to Mediterranean numbers such as gyros (rotisserie meat) with tzatziki. It's cash only.
