The Best Bars in Carinthia
Two years ago, Thomas Domenig started his home display, which he runs in summer and winter. During the day, he serves café and snacks (bagels, please!) by the lake, while the cocktail menu is unpacked in the evening. Classics and the whisky group are combined with surprises from the international team's drinks collection.
Retro furniture and DJ booth - that's "shoav", as the owners' baseball caps make unmistakably clear. Tarte flambée, fine espresso and a solid selection of beers (home-bottled by Wimitz!) are one side of the coin. Cocktail fun, preferably with Tommy's Hot Sauce to spice things up, is the other. A living room for everyone!
Having a drink on the veranda with "Mister Swizzle" Daniel Schellander feels like being on vacation. The kitchen also offers light options in this eclectically decorated, airy spot near the lake. From the well-tempered Perrier Jouët Champagne to the agave cocktails, you'll find high-quality accompaniments here.
The Schlosshotel in Velden is undoubtedly one of the most photographed motifs on Lake Wörthersee. Hidden inside is the famous bar, which was once a cinema and where the famous piano takes centre stage. Pure cinema feeling - the "Cinema Sour" is a tribute to earlier times and combines a drink with popcorn.
A real treat for discerning guests! The interior design of the bar has been thought through down to the last detail. With fine materials and stylish furniture, it is a real eye-catcher in Villach. The selection of drinks is equally impressive: first-class wines, homemade cocktails and a special gin menu!
With blues, jazz and swing and the flair of the Roaring Twenties, the port city creates an atmosphere of times gone by and offers an escape from the troubles of everyday life. The bar loves classic cocktails, but also offers its own signature drinks. The selection of spirits, craft beers and wine rarities is wide-ranging.
With over 300 first-class drinks and an extensive range of cocktails, including unusual creations and exquisite spirits, the bar is one of the best on Lake Wörthersee. Everything is prepared to perfection, from the drinks to the food. An integral part of every Carinthian vacation.
Villa Bulfon is celebrating 100 years and the drinks menu is also inspired by history: The Bamboo and Vieux Carré come from the "Great American Cocktail Book". Gregor Dolezal also mixes mocktails such as the Virgin Bellini or the "Don Alfredo" homage to bar colleague Alfred Koppler (✝).
Taste has a name! This bar in the heart of Villach is a tribute to the historical figure Anna Neumann. Here, attention is paid to detail and a commitment to quality. High-quality cocktails, a great selection of wines, trained bartenders and matching bistro cuisine with delicious tarte flambée.
From rosé or Champagne to espresso martinis, the bar crew of Wörthersee legend Rainer Husar (alias "the crew") looks after guests on the two levels of this one-star venue. If this stylish beach bar were on the French Riviera, you'd be raving about highball drinking "Les pieds dans l'eau" style.
Whether fruity or tart, sweet or sparkling, fancy or simple - there are cocktails for every occasion and every mood. And if there is nothing suitable on the menu, they are happy to accommodate special requests. Great menu and presentation!
Rum plays an important role not only at the "Represent Cuba" event, but in general the nights in the university quarter could be mistaken for those in Havana. Good music, colourful - always delicious! - drinks and young people willing to dance are all part of "Monkey University". Meli Wassermann and her crew are passionate about finger food.
The Lakeside is a must for the die-hard Wörthersee community. The ambience is stylish, cool, but always elegant and with a breathtaking view over Lake Wörthersee. The combination of DJ beats, an ingenious menu and, of course, unusual cocktails makes for unique vacation moments.
The hotel bar at the Arlbergerhof impresses with handmade cocktails, creative variety and expert advice. Only available here: The hotel's signature drinks are prepared with unique ingredients, such as grandma's herbal juices. Sun worshippers can also enjoy their drinks on the sun terrace.
During the day, you can dine in the beach club, while in the evening the casual lounge transforms into a chilled-out party location with a beach bar. The cool beats, the sunset and the view of Lake Wörthersee are the perfect basis for any summer vacation. The best way to get there is by boat - just as it should be on the lake!
The Bar in Seefels embodies the glitz and glamor of the Empire style. Magnificent and elegant, it stands for sophisticated drinking culture. With over 400 first-class spirits to choose from, especially hand-picked whisk(e)ys, discerning connoisseurs are spoiled here. Chocolate accompaniments are also available on request!
This unique location combines a bar, club, and café to create an incomparable experience. Boredom is a foreign word here because there is always something going on. The atmosphere is impressive, not least thanks to the all-round lighting concept, which creates a truly magical mood. Great cocktails!.
The perfect embodiment of the American lifestyle! Everything in the spirit of the American way of life and thought through down to the smallest detail. This place is famous for steaks and burgers, but the rooftop bar has established itself as an attraction in its own right with cool drinks and snack food. Plus jukebox sounds!
The Wascher family's bar boasts decades of experience in gastronomy. Under the management of Florian and his wife Flora, it is now successfully run by the third generation. Whether wine or cocktail, the quality speaks for itself. Be sure to try the Wascher's Special Drinks.
Casual beach club by day, trendy party hotspot by night. Celebrities and partygoers alike meet here. Surrounded by palm trees and an exclusive seaside setting, you can enjoy a glass of Champagne or a cocktail and try sushi, bowls and other delicacies. Simply celebrate and enjoy life!
