"It’s not everyday you can say the same restaurant has served Christopher
Columbus, Mozart, and Clint Eastwood.
St. Peter Stiftskulinarium is Salzburg, Austria claims that title, having
served food since AD 803, making it the oldest restaurant in Europe, and by
most measures, in the entire world.
Indeed, having been open for over 1200 years gives St. Peter a distinction that
feels very solitary and special, having served generations of people, dating
back to the dark ages.
While some claim the world’s oldest restaurant is in Spain, St Peter has been
in operation for nearly twice as long. The distinction is that during the
earlier years, they
gave food away to religious travelers who were passing
through the monastery."
