The best taverns in the 4th district in Vienna

Toni_Golatsche
What pubs are to the British and bistros are to the French, pubs are to the Viennese. Vienna is bursting with top-class pub culture, inviting you to enjoy a schnitzel and freshly tapped Krügerl on every corner of the city. You can find the best pubs in the 4th district in this list.

The pretty old bar sets the scene - and the atmosphere, because the pub atmosphere is rarely as cozy as here. The kitchen mostly keeps up and serves down-to-earth dishes. Nice, small wine selection.

Große Neugasse 20, 1040 Vienna, Austria

The pretty courtyard is idyllic, casual and urban; the same could be said of the creative cuisine: a focus on the best regional products and exciting dishes without chichi.

Weyringergasse 36, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Stefanie Herkner brings life to her restaurant. She is always on the move, with humor, charm and heart. Her cuisine is honest and approachable, her cabbage rolls made according to grandma's recipe are simply irresistible.

Wiedner Hauptstraße 36, 1040 Vienna, Austria

The restaurant has made a name for itself with rare delicacies made from a wide variety of offal; in addition to tripe soup and creamed veal heart, goulash and baked bat are also worth a visit.

Gußhausstraße 23, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Aromatic opposites meet here, which are harmoniously combined to create exciting creations such as "Korean fried crumbed cauliflower" or "Szechuan beef and peanut dim sum". Delicious!

Preßgasse 29, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Classic, traditional home cooking meets modern ideas such as Mangalitza millefeuille or the "Wiener Wirtschaft Burger" with black beer onions. Cozy, creative and yet clearly in the Viennese DNA.

Wiedner Hauptstraße 27–29, 1040 Vienna, Austria

A real gem of a pub: authentic recipes, honest home cooking and, of course, a veal schnitzel, just as it should be. Rustic ambience, waiter's charm, a side dish - and the Viennese experience is complete.

Preßgasse 26, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Viennese classics as you love them: honest, uncomplicated home cooking with a high feel-good factor. The schnitzel is always right here. When the weather is nice, the garden becomes a cozy extension.

Karlsgasse 22, 1040 Vienna, Austria

This time-honoured inn was founded back in 1929 - and even today it still cultivates traditional inn culture with no-frills Viennese cuisine, fine beer and draught wine. Balkan dishes are also served in the evening.

Rilkeplatz 7, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Because the landlord is married to a Vietnamese woman, you can choose between Viennese and Asian cuisine here. And because everything works so well, this unusual mix has been popular with guests for years.

Mayerhofgasse 18, 1040 Vienna, Austria

Home-style restaurant opposite the main train station. The cuisine is a mix of Czech, Slovakian and Viennese specialities. All in all, a solidly run restaurant with tradition.
