Landgasthof Linde — Restaurant in Stumm

Travelling around Tyrol and following a nice itinerary that we found on Internet, we found this lovely inn in the end of a daywhen heading to Innsbruck. The itinerary that we were following suggested this family-run inn for a stop for dinner, and so we did it.||When entering the inn we were impressed with the house with the architecture of the house with its heavy wooden door and an amazing decoration. It looked like we were travelling on time to an age where big cities did not exist.||We were greeted by a young lady from the staff, and we asked for a table for two, unfortunatelly receiving the answer that they were full for that night as we did not have reservation. However, the young lady asked us if we would be happy to have dinner in one hour as most of the reservations would start a bit later. As what we wanted was to have something to eat and preferable to try the food on that place we agree and then were taken to a table in the dinner room. Again, the restaurant room looked lovely matching the decoration with medieval architecture and mixing with some modern nuances. We were very happy to get that slot of one hour with no reservation and with no need to ask for it and we found that the staff was always helpful and tried to make us comfortable and welcomed all the time.||One of the ladies helped us with the german in the menu, and we went for the traditional dishes they serve.||The food was amazing, I had a Beuscherl which is basically a kind of stew with veal lungs which was a very fine and delicious dish despite of my suspicions at the beginning. My wife had the Cordon Blue which was also fantastic, although less extravagant.||Unfortunately we did not have time for the dessert as the people that got reservations started to arrive at the restaurant, but we were grateful that they did open the slot for us so we could have our dinner without being rushed by the waitress.||A great place to go and stop by if you are travelling around Tyrol. But make sure you call first reserving a table or it might be possible that you do not have the same luck we had of getting...

Spent two nights here in August 2011 during a circuit tour of western Austria. We could have stayed longer, as it was a comfortable and historic hotel and the room was really fantastic for a family (with a seperate bedroom and balcony upstairs for the parents). There was a tv and a safe and a basic but certainly clean and acceptable bathroom. Wireless internet access was a bit spotty and from our experience in several hotels it seems clear that the region will never be known for its fluffy or soft beds and pillows. Breakfast was a multi-course event with a mountain of varied breads, a cooked-to-order egg course, and a fruit course. It takes a while to work through but was very substantial and high quality. We were happy yet occassionally stymied by the lack of English among many of the hotel staff, but they were generally very nice and helpful. It is a real family affair, and you can tell that they work hard. The restaurant itself serves terrific food in an outdoor garden setting that seemed to set the standard for the village. However, our service was somewhat dismal the one night we ate there (one wrong order, meals served 5 minutes apart, waited 25 minutes for check then given the wrong change) - perhaps it was just an exceptionally busy night as I imagine the locals wouldn't have been there in droves if that was a normal experience. Those issues were also mitigated by the very good food that was served. ||||The region itself was very pretty and a bit off the beaten track - don't expect Innsbruck or Salzburg attractions or crowds. Stumm was a pretty village and one night we were very lucky to stumble into a village festival with a 30-person band playing traditional music. Other restaurants in the village served up equally fine food (and very good local beers) as well. We headed over to Krimml Falls for a hike to the top one day, and visited the cheesy yet satisfyingly unusual Swarovkski Crystal World theme park on the way out of the Zill valley. We left the area wishing we had one more day to explore it, and the Landgasthof was a good base...
