Orangerie Stams

Tyrol


With its atmospheric stone vaults and cosy niches, this restaurant within the abbey complex is big on charm. The menu emphasises high-quality regional produce. Snag a table to dig into dishes such as South Tyrolean beef tartare, Styrian chicken salad with pumpkin oil or Stamser Pfandl, grilled pork with garlic butter, root vegetables and roast potatoes. Vegetarian options are available.

There's an attractive garden for when the sun is out.
