Tyrolean cuisine interpreted in a contemporary way
In May 2016, the Blumschein family took over the inn and hotel Post in the center of St. Johann, Tyrol. With great sensitivity, they transformed the newly adapted, over 721-year-old historical building into a meeting place with heart and soul for both vacationers and locals. Following the motto "We bring joy to people," the entire Post team, led by hosts Sigrid and Maximilian Blumschein, lovingly takes care of the guests.
Secret ingredients: Passion and Innovation
The Post inn is characterized by authentic Tyrolean dishes, which are interpreted in a contemporary manner. Benjamin Leitner belongs to the young – “wild” – generation of chefs who know how to revive traditional inn cuisine with modern accents. The menu ranges from traditional classics such as Grandma Resi’s potato pancakes and beef goulash from Brunnhof in St. Johann to innovative creations like Tyrolean Surf & Turf (a curry beef sausage with trout fillet and fries). Depending on the season, the regional dishes are complemented by seasonal specialties. The inn is a member of the KochArt association. This collective from the Kitzbüheler Alps focuses on the use of high-quality local products. A particular emphasis is placed on rediscovering already forgotten specialties of the regional and Austrian cuisine. Gluten-free, lactose-free, and vegan dishes are also offered.
Inn awarded a toque
The four charming Tyrolean parlors of the Post inn exude a pleasant warmth with their silver fir wood. The attention to detail that runs through the culinary offerings and the decor, as well as the warmth of the entire Post team, make the inn a pleasant place to linger. Through personal recommendations from the sommelier and host Maximilian Blumschein, even discerning wine connoisseurs will find enjoyment. The efforts to modernize the classic inn approach are not only appreciated by the positive feedback from the guests. In autumn 2018, Falstaff recognized the dynamic gastronomy family Blumschein and awarded the Post inn a fork. In 2019, it was first evaluated by Gault Millau. The inn achieved 12.5 out of 20 points in 2026, thereby earning another toque.
