A small, straightforward lunch spot with a changing daily menu.
Closed 26–30 October 2026.
Imbiss · Thüringer Rostbratwurst
Grab a sausage to go and enjoy it at Brühl’s Terrace & Garden — lunch with a view, leaving more time to explore.

Pasta, pizza and salads, with takeaway available. Allow extra time when busy.
Neumarkt 14
Coffee from the family’s farm in Mexico, right on Neumarkt. Beans to take home, too.

Local cookies and sweet gifts. Look for Dresdner Christstollen, the city’s festive fruit bread, when available.
Salzgasse 8
Try Dresdner Eierschecke — a local cake with creamy quark and a light egg topping.
Our tip: about 45 minutes at a brisk pace for one collection’s highlights; longer for a full visit. Add time for entry, lockers and walking back.
