The best bistros and brasseries - Austria in 2025

Practical information : Take a break Austria

Timetable

At any time you can have a drink with a pastry in the cafes. And you can stay as long as you like.

Budget & Tips

In cafés and restaurants, it is customary to leave a tip. Drinks and snacks are relatively expensive, even very expensive for a sachertorte in one of Vienna's famous tea houses. If you are on a tight budget, there are modest cafés or tea rooms that offer excellent service at a lower price.

Age restrictions

The sale of alcoholic beverages to minors is forbidden in Austria. And the waiters are generally strict about this.

What's very local

You don't just order a coffee. The list of possible alternatives is long. Check before you order or ask a nice waiter who has time to explain... At the tourist office in Vienna you can get an explanatory map.

Kids

Bars usually have high chairs for small children and adapted drinks and even treats.

Smokers

We don't smoke it in bars, but we do on the terraces, at least if it doesn't bother other consumers.
