The story
Genussschmiede is a German restaurant at Rathausplatz 6 in Pirk, Weiden, and it holds a Michelin Recommended mention for 2026. The kitchen combines traditional recipes with modern influences, and the cuisine is listed as modern and seasonal.
The team describes its daily motto as fresh, regional and tasty. Ingredients come from suppliers the kitchen trusts. The gallery credits Peter Mauritz with the creations, which he builds around unexpected flavour pairings and plated presentation.
The building was erected in 1682 as a forge, and its owners are documented in an on-site chronicle. The Schlemmer Atlas awards the restaurant 2.5 Kochlöffel for 2026, noting traditional delicacies with modern influences served in the former blacksmith shop. Guests can also buy wines, coffee and accessories from the in-house wine shop, and the restaurant hosts events on days it is otherwise closed.
