Goldener Adler
The Goldener Adler is a restaurant and wine bar in downtown Innsbruck housed in a historic building dating back to 1390. It serves regional Austrian cuisine made with local ingredients alongside a broad selection of regional and international wines poured into specialized Riedel glasses designed for different wine types.
The building was founded in 1390, making it one of the oldest establishments in Innsbruck. Over the centuries it became a known gathering place for notable figures including writers like Goethe and Schiller who visited to share wine and conversation. Today it is run by the same family in the tradition of its long past.
The name "Goldener Adler" comes from a time when inns took their names from symbols and animals representing strength and protection. Today the place remains a gathering spot where locals and travelers share meals and wine as part of a living tradition passed down through the family who runs it.
The establishment is open daily from late morning until late evening, providing plenty of opportunity to visit for lunch, dinner, or a relaxed drink. Reservations are recommended, especially on busy evenings, and can be made online or by phone.
The place uses a special Enomatic machine that keeps wine fresh for weeks after opening, allowing a broad variety to be offered without the wine losing its flavor and aroma. A digital system called winePad helps visitors explore the origin and character of each wine and discover new favorites easily.
