Immer wenn wir in den vergangenen Jahren hier mit den Rädern vorbei kamen, haben wir angehalten und waren immer sehr zufrieden, wie auch heute! Guter Kaffee, leckerer Kuchen und Eis, man sitzt gemütlich draußen mit Blick über die Donau einfach wunderbar! Danke!

You definitely must stop by here for a wine / wine spritzer / Radler and/or one of their tasty, energy-refilling hot sandwiches or goulash soup. The marillen marmalade in the Semmel is just top so simple but so tasty and fresh. I love the chilly, not crowded country side environment. Nice view on the Danube and on the surrounding hills.

Wir sind gestern auf unserer Radtour zu Viert eingekehrt und würden super nett betreut..wir haben nur etwas getrunken (Espresso, Säfte gespritzt, den Monatswein, Marille Frizzante) und alles war sehr gut... Frau Machhörndl hat uns jedesmal frische Gläser angeboten und fand auch etwas Zeit, mit uns zu plaudern..wie jedesmal, wenn wir hier einkehren , verlassen wir die Einkehr sehr zufrieden!!!! Bitte daher selbst ausprobieren und auch nicht von ev. negativen Bewertungen abschrecken lassen ( z. B. dass Wartezeiten entstehen, wenn viel los ist, ist ja selbstverständlich)
