In the Quellenviertel, culinary delights are brought to life with passion, craftsmanship and tradition.
Regional specialities, fresh bread, characterful ciders, craft-brewed beers and high-quality organic produce define the region’s culinary diversity.
Whether in cosy pubs, at direct-sales outlets, on farms or in traditional breweries – here, what you find on the table is what grows, ripens and is produced with passion right here in the region. Authentic, down-to-earth and full of flavour. Just the way we like it in the Quellenviertel.
From pub to farm shop.
From freshly baked bread to a cold beer.
Here, enjoyment isn’t just for show.
Here, it’s a way of life.
Regional specialities, honest craftsmanship and convivial moments are simply part of the experience.
Sometimes hearty, sometimes sweet – but always full of flavour.
For authentic cuisine, regional produce and genuine craftsmanship. The Quellenviertel brings together beer, cider, bread, organic produce, traditional pub fare and direct sales. In other words, everything you need for a good time. And yes: it doesn’t hurt to be properly peckish.
The main themes are beer, cider, bread, organic produce, gastronomy and direct marketing. Beer represents the art of brewing and tastings; cider, snacks and the enjoyment of orchard fruit; bread, baking traditions and the art of baking; organic produce, products from organic farming; gastronomy, ranging from traditional pubs to award-winning restaurants; and direct marketing, products sourced directly from producers.
In the Quellenviertel, beer is more than just a drink. There are beer tastings, beer cellar experiences, beer seminars, beer-infused drinks, beer-themed menus, beer tours and weekends of indulgence centred around beer. At the Biergasthof Riedberg in Ried im Innkreis, for example, you can sample beers in the unique beer cellar, accompanied by stories about beer.
Cider is the perfect accompaniment to a snack, a day out or a get-together. In cider taverns and snack bars, you can enjoy a platter of local specialities, bacon and potato cheese, washed down with a glass of fruity cider. It’s particularly delicious after a hike or a cycle ride.
Because in the Quellenviertel, bread isn’t just a side dish – it’s a way of life. Sourdough, a long proving time, good flour, artisanal skill and local bakeries make bread here a proper staple. There’s hard work that goes into it. And a real feel for it.
‘Organic’ refers to food produced in accordance with the current regulations governing organic farming. In the Quellenviertel, there are plenty of organic businesses to discover – from farms and farm shops to bakeries, cafés and accommodation providers offering organic options. Here, you can get to know the people and the stories behind the products.
From cider taverns to award-winning restaurants, there’s something for everyone: rustic pubs, inns, cafés, patisseries, snack bars, restaurants and modern cuisine.
Roast pork, stuffed dumplings, cured bacon, regional snacks, home-cooked meals and homemade pastries – all served in a sunny outdoor dining area with plenty of space for families. It’s enough to make your heart skip a beat!
Direct marketing means: regional produce straight from the producers. Short supply chains, genuine craftsmanship and a strong sense of provenance on your plate. This includes farm shops, small shops, markets and businesses offering fresh produce straight from the farm.
