Top 10 Student Hangouts
-
1. Stiegl’s Alte Ambulanz
Excellent draught and bottled beer and hearty snacks, such as huge toasted sandwiches. There’s seating underneath the large chestnut trees in summer. Relaxing atmosphere.
-
2. Café Berg
A trendy hangout with cosy rattan seating and an adjoining bookshop. Popular with Vienna’s gay community.
-
3. Cafeteria Maximilian
Located just a stone’s throw from Vienna University, it is not surprising that this lively café is usually crowded with students. Warming cups of tea, coffee and hot chocolate, as well as light snacks such as toasted sandwiches, are on offer.
-
4. Statt-Beisl WUK
This former 19th-century locomotive factory has been cleverly converted into a cultural centre and operates a café and restaurant.
-
5. Zwillingsgwölb
Just behind the university is Zwillingsgwölb (twin vaults) with a pleasant café-type restaurant on the ground floor and an atmospheric pub in the cellar.
-
6. Café Votiv
The charming café within the Votiv cinema is popular with students as well as, of course, cinema-goers before and after film screenings.
-
7. Gangl
Beer on tap, toasted sandwiches and a cosy atmosphere, as well as seating outside in summer, attracts a loyal crowd of students. Generally crowded.
-
8. Sigmund Freud Park
On a sunny day the lawns of Sigmund Freud Park, just opposite the university buildings, are inhabited by crowds of students studying, picnicking, sunbathing and debating the latest issues.
-
9. Café Stein
This hotspot has seating inside and out, and offers a good view of the Votivkirche (see p97). A great choice for a traditional breakfast. It also hosts various cultural events.
-
10. Charlie P’s
One of the many Irish pubs dotted around the city, Charlie P’s has a particularly lively atmosphere. An essential part of the traditional menu is fish and chips and a pint of Guinness.
