Figlmüller
Innere Stadt
The schnitzel that overhangs the plate since 1905, Wollzeile, the original house.
Innere Stadt Wirtshaus, the boiled-beef-and-horseradish kitchen for the audience without four hours.
Gasthaus Pöschl sits on Weihburggasse in the 1. Bezirk and runs the classical Viennese Wirtshaus format at the central postcode without lapsing into the tourist-trap register that destroys most central addresses. The kitchen does the canon, Tafelspitz with apple horseradish, Wiener Schnitzel from veal, Tafelspitz with marrowbone, Powidltascherl for dessert, at honest portion sizes and honest prices. The room is small, white-tablecloth, family-run, the wine list focused on small Austrian growers. Regulars use Pöschl for the classical Viennese lunch that does not require the formality of Plachutta or the Sacher dining room, the everyday version of the same kitchen.
The lunch hour fills with a regular crowd from the surrounding 1. Bezirk offices, arrive at noon or after 14:00. The Powidltascherl (plum-jam dumplings, fried, dusted with cinnamon sugar) at the end is the right close.
