The restaurant on piazza Terme in the center of Merano is something really special. Not just for its cuisine. In our Bistro, you can savor unique creations from the alpine-mediterranean kitchen while enjoying the summer beats of live concerts or admiring the lively ice rink and festive atmosphere of the piazza.
Seasonal, locally sourced ingredients come together to surprise you with new flavors every time. That’s how contemporary classics with an Alpine–Mediterranean soul are created: nourishing yet light dishes, perfect for a quick lunch or something beyond the usual soup after a day at the spa.
Here, good food is always on the table – even without a spa ticket.
Our menu changes every week.
Not out of whim, but out of passion.
In its seeming simplicity lies the true measure of quality.
When there are only a few components on the plate, each one has to shine – in taste, in freshness, in origin. Fresh pasta is a favorite among our guests, which is why there’s always a pasta dish on our menu.
Our homemade pasta is crafted from organic flour and local free-range eggs, then bronze-drawn. This gives it a slightly rough, porous texture – perfect for holding on to every drop of sauce.
We serve Paccheri, Fusilli, Treccine, Tagliatelle, Tortellini – and of course the timeless classics like Spaghetti and Spaghetti alla Chitarra.
Summer brings them back to our plates: chanterelles.
Golden, aromatic, and full of woodland flavor.
A true classic among wild mushrooms, they captivate with their nutty taste and a texture that’s both firm and tender. Sautéed, tossed in butter, served pickled alongside tartare, folded into a creamy sauce with veal fillet, or paired with fresh pasta – these golden forest treasures need little to win you over.
At the Bistro, we deliberately focus on carefully selected regional products, letting their flavors shine.
The perfect choice if you want something delicious at midday – satisfying, but never too heavy.
Enjoy one of our homemade pasta creations, served with a crisp salad and 0.7 l of filtered spring water – all for €18. Fancy risotto instead? It’s yours for just €1 extra.

A chef with character, he’s not afraid to experiment – giving every dish that certain something that’s hard to put into words.
It’s the unique blend of freshness, top-quality ingredients, and surprising flavor notes you never saw coming.
What sets him apart? His gift for reimagining classic ingredients, refining recipes, and transforming simple dishes into true culinary experiences.

Mmm… simply delicious!
