About seven kilometers west of Graz lies a place that does not separate contradictions, but celebrates them: rustic authenticity here, culinary delights there. The Pekarz family combines authentic tavern culture with creative cuisine and genuine hospitality. The openness of the head chef, combined with regional and freshly prepared home cooking, results in harmonious compositions. Here, cards are played and à la carte meals are prepared simultaneously. For over half a century, the guest room has been a place for conversation, thoughts, and music. On warm days, shady linden trees in the garden invite you to enjoy the view of Plabutsch and soak up the relaxed atmosphere.
At Kreuzwirt, what matters is not only what is on the plate but also what stays in the heart.
