    Red Lion

    Posted by sparky17 1 September 2006

    The first real British pub in Vienna - unlike the rest this pub is owned and run by a man from London. It offers good food and is the only one that gives you a good pint of beer (real ale). Well worth a visit just for the tea towels on the wall.

    Lowengasse 3, around the corner from the Konvert Haus; tel: 01 713 16 90

    Gosser Bierklinik

    Posted by Robertwblues 28 March 2006

    What could be better than a beer clinic? This is a traditional Austrian tavern situated in the heart of Vienna. Try the dunkles (dark) beer for a change. Hearty Austrian food. Try the bauernschmaus if you are very hungry and like meat/sausage, it comes with a dumpling. Friendly staff and lots of interesting rooms.

    Wombats Hostel

    Posted by cybersquatter 25 March 2006

    Wombats operate two hostels - one in Munich, and the original in Vienna. The hostels in both cities are models of how hostels should be run, with a friendly atmosphere, spotless rooms, a free laundry and a bar. The free "welcome drink" at said bar is a nice touch too, even if it is just half a pint.

    Volksgarten Cafe

    Posted by glynnyboy 25 March 2006

    Beautifully preserved 1960s summer pavilion incorporating a cafe and bar. Cool and shady in the summer heat, lively garden in the evening.

    1516

    Posted by RogerHeath 25 March 2006

    Really great bar in the 1st district. It is a brewery that serves its own delicious beers (wheat beers are very good) at very reasonable prices. Has a good mix of locals and foreigners, although it does have a bit of an Anglo feel to it as you can order in English, but sometimes that's a good thing. Nice cheap food too (6- 10 euros for a substantial meal) - far superior to the average crap served in UK pubs or the overpriced gastro fare. I'd be doing the place a disservice by not mentioning how gorgeous the barmaids are too.

    Flanagan's and Charlie P's

    Posted by rebeccaemily 24 March 2006

    These are two Irish pubs which offer everything expats could possibly want and have an important place in the English-speaking community here in Vienna. Obviously there are plenty of local options available but if you're feeling thirsty for Guinness, want to catch up on some sport other than skiing, or simply spend a few hours in "gemütlich" surroundings, then these pubs are two of the best options.

    Santo Spirito

    Wonderful cafe/wine bar hidden down a cobbled street near the centre. Plays taped classical music at ear-splitting volume.

    Bar Philosoph

    Posted by DuploBaustein 8 March 2006

    If you know the Schwedenplatz, you are near to a massive and undoubtedly one of the most popular bars in the inner city. The atmosphere of the bar is friendly - and often good-looking - bar keepers invite people from every generation to come and chill with other 'homies'. So if you want to spend a nice evening with your 'homies', take the U4 to Schwedenplatz and discover its glamour.

    Ottakringer brewery

    Posted by ViennaFreak 8 March 2006

    Visit the famous beer-brewery in Ottakring, the 16th district of Vienna. Drink the tasty Ottakringer helles or the even more famous Ottakringer dunkles until you have to vomit.
    Although this might not be very good for your health or liver.
    You can drink beer which tastes better and more original than any beer in the US - so, visit Vienna and taste an Ottakringer
    blopp.

    The Kaiko Club

    Posted by Bahamamama 8 March 2006

    The Kaiko Club is a very neat and clean club to perfectly finish your day round Vienna. The club is connected to a second club nearby, so you can leave your coats in one, and pass on to the other. In the club you can get lots of delicious cocktails going from a simple Strawberry Daiquiri to far more complicated cocktails like a Bahama Mama. The bar can offer you an oriental waterpipe for about 10€. Since it's quite new, the prices are moderate but not too high to frighten, but not too low to let everyone in. Since the owners tend to keep their bar clean you can be sure not to be disturbed by any drunken bastard passing by.

    Kaertner (or 'American') Bar

    Posted by cmcg 30 October 2005

    A tiny marbled and mirrored jewel of a bar designed by Adolf Loos in 1907. Only seats about 12 people with maybe standing room for another 5 or 6. Stop in at about 5pm for cocktails or Austrian wine, or if your German is good enough reserve a table for the evening. Lovely staff.

    Kolar Beisl

    Posted by mseymour 26 October 2005

    Bar in Vienna serving filled Fladenbrote (similar to pitta bread). The original one is in the Kleeblattgasse in the first district though there are now three in total. Walk up to the top of the Graben, turn right, walk along and you'll see the Kleeblattgasse which is a narrow little alley. Mixed clientèle, reasonable prices, dark with loud music. Fladen are great though.
