Restaurant Grande Liberté Bad Ischl

The Grande Liberté restaurant does not bear the name of an empress. And yet everything is reminiscent of the one who broke free from he corset. With a hunger for movement. With an appetite for independence. No court protocol. Not a menu for royalty. Instead, dishes that are allowed to please without being pretentious. In the middle of Bad Ischl. And far away from any restrictive templates.

Rebel, rebel. Even at the table.

Menu Between the Salzkammergut and sensuality

The menu at Grande Liberté knows its roots. And breaks them down with dignity. These are dishes that tell a story. Of origins, of attitude, of a cuisine that does not restrict itself. But expresses itself. Between beetroot dumplings, tartare and creamy truffle pasta, regional ingredients meet international attitude. Classic meets contrast. Kaiserschmarrn meets crème brûlée.

The card? Changes constantly. With the seasons. With the market. With the courage to try new things and rethink tradition. A menu for travelers with taste. For those who express and cherish opinions. For the hungry who seek more than satiety. Grande Liberté does not cook nostalgically. But pushes boundaries. For hotel guests and visitors alike. If you want to dine with us at lunch- or dinnertime, it's best to reserve a table - places are in great demand.

Restaurant Cuisine worthy of an empress

The Grande Liberté can be found where tradition meets new taste. Inspired by the Salzkammergut, but not bound by what has been cooked a thousand times before. The cuisine uses history while thinking ahead. Regional classics, dusted off. Recipes from the imperial era, revived. All light, modern, with that nonchalant precision that effortlessly pleases palates. Dining takes place in the sun on the terrace or in the salon, with its unobtrusive grandeur. You don't have to be a hotel guest to take a seat here. Just someone who knows that good cuisine doesn't need a stage. And that taste is best revealed when it is unannounced.

Lunch, coffee and dinner Where rebellion smells of rosemary

Grande Liberté sounds like freedom and tastes like it too. Between steaming hot coffee and the scent of lemon oil in the air lies a place that doesn't just serve food. It is staged. Sometimes playful. Sometimes radical. Always sensual. Always confident. During the day, guests can look forward to a rendezvous with delicious quiches, Zauner's cake art and conversations in the light of the Salzkammergut sun.

In the evening, the Grande Liberté sets the stage for grilled sturgeon, venison ragout or vegan tartare. Served with attitude. And a touch of the avant-garde. Grande Liberté does not cook for the masses. But for those who know that enjoyment is a form of freedom. Whether on the terrace or in the lounge. You are invited to stay. And enjoy a slice of the good life.

Breakfast at the Grand Elisabeth A morning that feels like freedom

The morning does not begin with haste. But with quiet decisions. Cappuccino or black tea. Home-baked sourdough bread or Kaisersemmel. A spoonful of Zauner jam combined with a poem on creamy butter. Grande Liberté serves breakfast like a promise. Warm, solemn, sincere. For early birds who prefer to take it slow. For late risers who like to embrace the day. A breakfast selection. Diverse, seasonal, with a sense for the essentials. A seat by the window. A view of the world. A table for conversations that have no time limit. Breakfast at the Grande Liberté is open to everyone who is looking for the perfect way to start the day. For guests of the Grand Elisabeth. And outside visitors. We ask the latter to do only one thing: reserve a table in advance.

And on the first Sunday of every month, the morning turns into a proper celebration. Brunch at Grande Liberté means even more choices, more time, more space to indulge in. Breakfast here is more than just a meal. It allows for moments where everything seems possible.

From the Hofzuckerbäckerei to the Grand Elisabeth. A laison of history, taste and daring seduction.

Anyone staying in Bad Ischl can't miss the Zauner. Since 1832, the strudels, cream slices, and cakes from the former Imperial and Royal Court confectioner have shaped the town's sweet history – artfully composed, outrageously successful. The Zauner patisserie also plays its part at the Grand Elisabeth. Our restaurant offers select desserts from the traditional confectionery, while the hotel shop on the ground floor offers classics such as the world-famous Zauner Stollen, delicate Ischler tarts, and our exclusive Grand Elisabeth signature pralines. To take away. As a gift. Or simply to treat yourself.
