Vienna Cafes & Clubs

Vienna's cafes have become the stuff of legend, with their writers, eccentrics and Shakespearean feuds over stolen cake recipes. But going out is not only confined to sweet salvation. Far from it. Vienna also has a vibrant nightlife - the city having spawned some of the hippest sounds on the European club scene of the last decades.

For more sedentary adventures - and Vienna is the king of laidback - beer is always infinitely more appealing when served in the glorious stein format, as compared to the dull pint glasses of the UK. Last but not least, the capital is peppered with smooth bars to sip cocktails and sample the vastly underrated world of Austrian wine. Enjoy!

Reviews about Vienna Cafes & Clubs

Had a lovely time here. Staff were so helpful ensuring we got nice seats & bringing beautiful pastries to our table. Loved it so much we came back next day

United Kingdom,
Cafe Central

The coffee was good. Ambience was good Waiter was rude, impatient. Felt belittled by his behavior. Human interaction is so important and they need to improve that. I won't go there again. I can find a good coffee and a nice building anywhere in Vienna

Cafe Central

I lived in Wien 1st District for 5 years in the 70's. Kleines was my stammlokale - my regular place. Other than the tables outside it hasn't changed one bit. Please don't tell anyone about it.

Loved the decor. The bar was not crowded when we visited and we received good service. Met two lovely ladies from Austria and enjoyed their conversation. Friendly place.

Never miss a meal at Cafe Central when I visit Vienna. The schnitzel hanging off the plate and the strudel with vanilla sauce - leaves me almost immobile but what the heck! Schoen!
