Fun and entertainment Austria

This establishment owes a lot to its patron founder, Leopold Hawelka, who now leaves, given his age, an officer his very effective team. On the other hand, if a very old man greets you at the entrance, be sure that it is him. His wife is on the grill and the cakes have this flavor that only the house "Mehlspeise" can have, the famous Touche touch in addition. A Viennese myth that can still be touched and tasted in a pleasant wooden decor, enhanced by engravings and sketches of artists who have passed through here.

The café is on the corner of the street, a few steps from Maria-Theresien-Strasse. It's one of those magnificent Viennese cafés, with pastries and a piano bar. We sit by the window to soak up the sun, drinking a small espresso. Everyone chats, drinks and reads the papers. It's possible to have breakfast without staying in the hotel. To give you an idea, there's a choice of 11 different breads and 14 types of breakfast! Vegetarian options. Pastries. From October to the end of April, piano evenings are organized every Sunday evening.

A café known for its homemade cupcakes. The atmosphere is relaxed and many come to read. To accompany your sweet snack, banana bread or cheesecake, you have a choice of coffees and hot or iced chocolates. There's also a choice of breakfasts in seven versions, including two French ones, café-croissant or croque-monsieur, or the hearty one with avocado, grilled bacon and feta cheese. And all day long, in addition to pastries, you can order savory snacks. A perfect place to take refuge on a grey day.

"L'Orgue du vin" marks the edge of a district dominated by establishments sought after by wine lovers. The public is connoisseur and wiser than in the "Triangle". In this wine cellar, one takes the time to taste the wine. This Lokal where one stands owes its name to the barrel organ, a few centuries old, installed above the counter. The vaulted room is very convivial, as is the very mixed audience. The low prices are an additional pretext to discover Austrian wines. Long wine and peanut menu at will!

This is THE traditional Viennese café where the waiters even wear the binocle! A little ignored by tourists, the Bräunerhof is famous for the Bräunerhoftrios concerts that take place there on Saturday, Sunday afternoons and public holidays (starting around 3pm). However, these concerts do not take place in the summer, which reinforces the fact that it is not a tourist attraction. The atmosphere is intimate, the yellow walls slightly faded, the mosaic decoration and the waiters in three-piece suits have something profoundly Viennese and a reassuring immutability.

Since 1912, this beautiful, partly Art Nouveau building has housed three main halls: the Schubert-Saal, the Mozart-Saal and the Grosser Saal, the largest as its name suggests. Its musical palette is not limited to classical music, but covers the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Baroque, as well as jazz and world music, and even contemporary progressive sounds. The musicians of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra perform there in prestigious concerts. The program takes place all year round, including in summer.

One of the best cinemas in Vienna showing films in original version with English subtitles. Top Kino exudes an artistic and relaxed atmosphere and its Lokal is also one of the most pleasant bars in the 6th district. It's an authentically trendy spot that meets the concept of trendy clubs, simple, frequented by a mixed audience and attracted by art. The evening can go on late into the night after the projections and the atmosphere can quickly heat up. A popular rendezvous for young Viennese artists.

It is one of the oldest Heuriger among the authentic areas of Vienna. Bacchus has been famous since the Middle Ages. Alain Delon, Helmut Kohl and the Dalai Lama have passed on to the sound of the same music. The house is known for the quality of its cuisine.

With a view of Schönbrunn Palace, the café opened in 1995 in a renovated building welcomes you in the pure tradition of the Viennese Kaffeehaus. It's a place where Emperor Franz I had his lunch. The choice of Mehlspeise is wide, from the Apfelstrudel to the Kugelhupf to the cardinal's pie. In summer, the terraces are full. Among the successes of the house is the breakfast buffet "Sissi" with champagne glass and smoked salmon canapé, traditional bread rolls, butter and jam, in an imperial style porcelain service.

This well-appointed café, whose origins date back to 1900, is a great place to spend evenings in a richly decorated interior or, in summer, on the small terrace. The Weimar retains the best of the Viennese café tradition, including outstanding service. Tradition is complemented by a well-structured menu offering a wide variety of Austrian and international cuisine to suit all tastes. Typical and definitely enjoyable. A piano plays operetta, swing and jazz classics on weekends from 4pm to 8pm.

In the city centre, very convenient.

A post-modern café, as it is both feng shui and cyber café!

The most pleasant bar in the area with magnificent views of the lake to enjoy a small wine from the region.

The Piaristenkeller's musical (and culinary) programme is centred around the most famous representative of Viennese classical music. Quality concerts with renowned orchestras in the Piaristenkirche, a magnificent baroque church. In the vaulted cellars of the restaurant, Mozart's music (solo musician or string quartet) during the meal. We taste the dinner that Mozart would have had during one of his visits to the Piaristenkeller! At the end of the evening, head to the Hut- und Weinmuseum for a glass of Zauberflöte (Magic Flute).

Vienna's Latin Club is widely frequented by the local Hispanic community, but also by the Austrians. Result: a crowded club where one sometimes has to resign itself to drinking a pina debout, because there is no power to shake in the middle of the crowd.

A modern and welcoming cafe-konditorei, frequented by Leibnitziens of all ages.

Specialties to the apple, in a family atmosphere.

A quiet and trendy café, located on one of the most popular squares of the students and residents of Graz.

It is accessed by a lift that goes directly into the bar. Classy! This is a trendy address and a very modern establishment, spread over two floors, which is characterized by a mainly young clientele. From the bar on the mezzanine floor, you can enjoy a superb view of Graz's main square. And from the roof terrace, which overlooks the entire city, you can see as far as the Schlossberg hill and the dome of the town hall. The atmosphere is dominated by sixties and seventies rock music.

Café located right in the middle of the Wall on the famous Insel island, designed by the great architect Vito Performances. The snail structure is a great success. We had to dare! A visit absolutely.

A friendly atmosphere in a traditional setting. Delicious pastries: schlossbergkugeln, schilcherlandtrüffel or true schilcher of Styria. An excellent address.

An institution in Bregenz. The most recent structure was opened in 1999 and is a busy venue during the tourist season, especially for the annual Bregenz Festival (www.bregenzerfestspiele.com). The giant open-air stage on the lakefront can accommodate up to 6,000 people, and a covered wing can be used indoors in case of bad weather. It is the largest lake stage in the world.

A charming, historic establishment. Built in the 1880s in Haussmann style, the building was once a bazaar. The café opened its doors in 1909, and has welcomed celebrities such as Marlene Dietrich, Romy Schneider and Hugo von Hofmannsthal. The room is spacious and high-ceilinged, typical of the elegant Austrian Kaffeehouse . On sunny days, you can enjoy the terrace overlooking the Left Bank and the fortress. Here, you can spend pleasant hours reading the press and daydreaming as you watch the passers-by...

A jewel for the gourmets and the nostalgic of the empire. This magnificent tea room is the most famous and the most sumptuous of the spa. As you may have guessed, this is where Emperor Franz Joseph used to sit to enjoy delicious pastries and a good cup of tea. The choice of small and large cakes and other delicacies is phenomenal and you will simply be amazed by the window display. A must in Bad Ischl on the elegant Pfarrgasse. A stopover to make at least once during your stay!

In an open alley between two walls of walls, and which leaves Maria Theresien Strasse at the level of 16. Still a loved one of the students. Very modern music and studios, with contemporary tables and chairs, spots, exciting music; The atmosphere is full of 2 h.

In the heart of Innsbruck, the Treibhaus shines like a cultural jewel, with a packed calendar of events of all kinds. Jazz evenings, poetry nights and art exhibitions. It's the perfect stopover for those looking to color their Tyrolean escapade with artistic nuances. And for your taste buds? The Treibhaus enchants with its inventive vegan cuisine, concocting inexpensive gourmet pizzas for under 11 euros, made from eco-responsible ingredients. An address not to be missed, to enjoy and be inspired.

An amazing establishment and uncategorized, so there are things! This place lives from 11 am to 4 am and offers various activities. For example, you can start with a coffee and a few oriental pastries before you take advantage of the hammam and the tea room, continue in the restaurant (French and Moroccan influence), and drink a drink at the club where Djs just like jazz groups. On a total surface of 2 000 m ², you can't feel at home in this old brick factory with a warm decoration. Visit absolutely during his stay!

It's a typical Viennese café with a patina of the 1960s, with its regulars and its divine apfelstrudel. Susanne Widl, the eccentric owner of the place, is hardly ever seen here anymore. But even from a distance, this former model and underground artist keeps an eye on things. Nestled on a small square behind St. Peter's Church, Café Korb combines tradition and avant-gardism. The waiters are in traditional clothes but the cards are fluorescent and the terrace is colorful. Go there rather in the morning to find a place. In the basement, concerts and animations are programmed.

Panoramic bar serving excellent cocktails in a hushed atmosphere. From classic cocktails from around the world to original, contemporary creations, this is a great address for cocktail lovers of all kinds! Ideal for a chic, intimate and relaxed end to the evening. In summer, the large terrace offers an incredible view, allowing you to watch the sun set over the city's rooftops from the comfort of your own chair, while enjoying a lovely moment with friends or lovers. A lighter wallet and a lighter mind!

Opposite the Burggarten, Burgring 1 is a bistro that lends itself well to a chat with friends or a drunken evening, but also to a stopover for a coffee and a pastry and a few moments' rest before setting off again to explore the city center and its riches. The industrial decor, the sometimes rough walls and the light bulbs placed at different heights create a slightly trendy, fairy-tale atmosphere. The mismatched tables and chairs add a really nice touch to the place. We love it! The terrace adds to the charm of the address.

BarRock. A bar, rock and other music. Accordion, violin, guitar, vocals... In a vintage house with a bistro décor and a courtyard like a guinguette, you will enjoy a friendly and festive atmosphere, but not too much. It's much more tender than punk. Here is a nice and atypical bar to listen to livemusic while sipping a beer, nibbling a pizza or a hot dog, enjoying a Red Bull-vodka, a Bacardi-Cola, a Whiskey-Cola without forgetting the local sparkle.

Cigars are no longer smoked indoors as they used to be, as legislation now forbids smoking in bars. But the house still offers a fine selection of cigars. Cocktail lovers are in for a treat at the Kruger, one of the world's top 100 bars, with talented and renowned baristas of great dexterity. A long list of cocktails for aperitifs, after-dinner drinks, evening drinks... English club setting with wood panelling and club chairs. Great jazzy music. Golden youth and VIPs mingle. Reserve your table and dress appropriately.

Since its opening in 1998, the venue has been a hotbed of national and international bands and DJs. Among the celebrities who have performed here for the first time in Austria are Calexico, Tocotronic, Peaches and Moneybrother. With two floors under the railway arch, the B72 offers a balcony with a perfect view of the stage. On the second floor you can have a drink and dance. On the second floor, you can relax and unwind. In fine weather, there's also a pleasant outdoor area. The B72 is wheelchair accessible.

Founded in 1990 by pianist and conductor Paul Moser and his wife Sylvia, this chamber orchestra performs classical composers with a formation of 10 to 40 musicians in period costumes. Top of the bill: Mozart and Strauss. For the record, the WRO was Austria's official representative for the bicentenary of Mozart's death in 1991. In the purest Viennese tradition, the orchestra performs in the capital's most beautiful palaces.

Every day, Mozart comes to life at the Salzburg Residence, a venue steeped in history since it was here that the maestro first played for the archbishop. Two concerts take place at 3pm and 5pm. The first, entitled Residenzconzerte, is played by a soloist on a reproduction of a harpsichord from 1769. The musician obviously gives pride of place to Mozart, and adds a few Baroque works to his repertoire. The second, Mozart Violinsonaten, is played as a duo by a violinist and a pianist, who skilfully bring his most beautiful sonatas to life.

Here's a "Kaffeehaus" emblematic of Austrian tradition in Innsbruck! Traditional and elegant, Café Katzung nonetheless boasts a modern decorative style that incorporates beautiful neo-Baroque nods. Enjoy delicious slices of cake, pies and Kaiserschmarren, homemade ice cream and premium chocolate... And breakfast is served from 8 a.m. to closing time! A central address that's perfect for a sweet break at any time of day. We wish you all the best!

The 360°, part bistro, part wine bar, part lounge, offers an elegant perspective on Innsbruck's surroundings thanks to its panoramic glazing. Perched on the ^15th floor above the town hall's shopping arcade, in its literally 360° glass tower, it's a sumptuous setting in which to sip a coffee, have a drink or spend the evening overlooking the surrounding mountains. In the list of panoramic establishments in Innsbruck, this is a special one!

Located in the heart of the Hofburg complex, the café of the same name, run by the Querfeld family, offers homemade pastries, coffee, hot chocolate, fruit juice and snacks in a relaxed yet cosy atmosphere. This is a relaxing stopover after exploring the former imperial residence. Settle down on the terrace. It's the ideal spot to watch the horse-drawn carriages go by while dreaming of centuries of yesteryear... The service is impeccable in every respect and this café is an excellent address.

Located in the heart of a pleasant courtyard, this wine bar is a friendly place. International wines to be enjoyed by taking advantage of the framework.

The Drechsler, a hundred-year-old bar that used to be known as the only one in Vienna where you could eat 23 hours a day, has become gentrified with reduced hours during the day. Nevertheless, this address with its cosy design, refined and trendy at the same time, still has the same success. The drinks menu shows originality with organic proposals and friendly home-made blends. We are particularly fond of fresh carrot-ginger fruit juice, local peach wine and excellent non-alcoholic cocktails. Varied breakfasts. Perfect break in front of the Naschmarkt.

The gigantic 1,800 ^m2 Pratersauna in the famous amusement park is housed in a former sauna and now houses a stylish discotheque with an original decor, but not only that. You will also find a stone bar, restaurant, terrace and even a swimming pool with a pool illuminated at night. It must be said that with so much space, the owners wanted to make it a place of entertainment and culture at the same time. Techno and electro music are played and the clientele is varied. Rich programming and numerous events.

One of the trendy addresses of the Grütel, the clubbers' quarter under the Otto Wagner arcades of the old underground, along a busy outer artery of the city. No charm at first glance, but decibels that don't bother anyone! Among these addresses, the Rhiz is one of the recent spots for electronic music lovers. Young and old mingle in a minimalist setting. Underground atmosphere and excellent electro music. It's no surprise then that Le Rhiz has become the most popular Viennese electronic music scene.

It is the bar of the cinema of the same name. The principle is nice and is always very successful with moviegoers. It is about giving the possibility to the spectators to have a drink or/and to eat a piece before or after a cinema session. Of course, you can go there just to have a drink and take a break in the 6th district. The clientele is rather young and nerdy because Top Kino doesn't program blockbusters but rather auteur films. Underground and quiet atmosphere. Very good welcome.

Two atmospheres, two seasons. In summer, the terrace under the tall trees looks like a guinguette and attracts a large clientele. In winter, one appreciates the bourgeois comfort inside a Jugendstil building. Time seems to stand still: the vintage decoration, the Viennese service, the feeling that you can take as long a break as you like, everything contributes to making you feel really comfortable. A regular clientele, we come here to drink beers with friends in a good-natured atmosphere. Nice welcome!

Einhorn? Unicorn. Funny name for a bar, coffee shop, cafe-jazz, cafe-rock... The tone is set with a certain humor and a warm ambience, a little offbeat. It has a heterogeneous clientele. 1970s decor, a bit rock and psychedelic.

Shows to delight young and old. In Vienna, even the puppets sing opera! This beautiful puppet theater offers shows of varying length, but if you have the time, don't hesitate to book a ticket for Mozart's The Magic Flute (an abridged version for children). The show, which lasts 2 hours 20 minutes (adults), is fascinating. The troupe's reputation is international, and they sometimes go on tour. Open-air shows in summer.

Since a dragonfly landed on the roof of Vienna's Leopold Museum, the Museumsquartier rooftop has been open to the public. Designed by Ortner & Ortner, with the help of artist Eva Schlegel for the building's glass façade, and fellow artist Brigitte Kowanz for the light rings, this is one of Vienna's most spectacular rooftops. We love its design, aerial, panoramic (and privatizable) space! The Zur Libelle kiosk offers fresh, healthy drinks and snacks. Stay tuned for its program! Access free of charge.
