Cafés and bars in Vienna

Not only is the look of the 1920s in chic candy style and its own design language back, but also a very charming old tradition. Café Kraus - named after the eloquent Viennese publicist and satirist Karl Kraus - would like to be the center of intellectual gatherings and debates. The motto is "enjoyment and discourse". On the menu you will find classics of Viennese cuisine and new interpretations of international dishes. In the evenings, the Kraus is transformed into a bar.

A day ideally starts with good coffee! That's what the former globetrotter siblings Lisa and Marcus thought, too, who, inspired by a trip to Hawaii, realized the dream of their own café. The interior design dominated by green and golden yellow with jungle photo wallpaper makes this place one of the coolest hipster cafes in town with small dishes, coffee specialties and pastries according to grandma's recipe.

Indulgence with history! Vienna's oldest and still operating coffee house with a long tradition since 1870 has been renovated and reopened in 2021. As an interface of culture, politics and art, it is located within walking distance of the Parliament and the Natural History Museum, the Palace of Justice and the Hofburg, the Burg Theater and the Volkstheater. It serves sustainable, regional cuisine ranging from Sachertorte to Kalbswiener. Around the clock: as a café, day bar and restaurant.

One of the must-be addresses for drinks in the 1st district is the newest bar of Vienna's most famous bartender Roberto, who has now opened his 3rd bar for illustrious guests. This time at Neuer Markt, one of the most beautiful places in Vienna. You will enjoy a bar experience with many details: a chandelier in Loos design with 375,000 crystals, Lobmeyr glasses, Thonet bar stools in the guest garden as well as a bar menu so thick that it reminds of a novel. 

A legendary cocktail bar with lots of glamour! Velvet-covered stools and sofas, fringe-look lamps, green marble walls, as well as large mirrors and lots of gold are reminiscent of a bar where The Great Gatsby would also have fit in perfectly. Known for its extensive beverage portfolio of 1,200 whiskies, over 400 cocktail creations, and more than 500 different types of rum, this American bar is very popular.
