Rustic Alpine inns serving up hearty local fare to holidaymakers in Saalbach rest on the slopes, while the valley towns bristle with restaurants, cafes, ice bars, and delicatessens (for those who enjoy a 'do-it-yourself' meal).Most of the inns open from breakfast time, tempting skiers with delicious Austrian pastries and coffee. Hearty lunches and dinners focus on a huge variety of local pork and sausage dishes, including schnitzel. The local establishment that is reputedly the best of the lot is the Pfefferalm , an historic chalet, located on the Reiterkogel blue run.
