I want to start by saying that Four Bells is NOT an Irish Pub. I think if it was in the states I'd call it a dive bar. Any pub that calls itself Irish needs to have more than Guinness on tap, maybe Rockshore or Harp? I couldn't find my favorite Irish whisky behind the bar. That being said I had a great time there. The pub quiz was fun, the service was good and the people were very friendly but I think everyone is friendly after a few pints of Guinness. read more

Definitely "solid". It's "A-OK" as Yelp puts it. When I give 3 stars, I am being generous, had I received service like this in the US, I would give 2 Went here with a group of about 5 other people. Two or three others ordered "chips" which are steak fries really, and I ordered a bacon burger with the spicy sauce on the side. Everyone also ordered some class of beer. We got our drinks pretty quick. Guinness that I ordered was... well... Guinness. However, the foam was a bit more bitter than I have had in other places. Chips came to my friends pretty quickly, I knew that the burger might take a little longer but I was expecting not by much. Yeah... Apparently, they forgot about me, because they had to ask me again what my order was after my friends were at least halfway through their meals. When I finally got the burger my friends were done eating. I had to wait an unreasonably long time for my burger to come out, as my friends ate slowly. Meanwhile, my Guinness was getting warm as I did not want to drink on an empty stomach. Burger was not exactly what I asked for. Rather than a bacon burger with the spicy sauce on the side, I just got a "Hell's Burger" with the sauce already in it. As for the burger, it was somewhat disappointing. First, the spicy sauce was an American style barbecue sauce with something spicy mixed in, poorly, only one bite was spicy. Second, the meat was cooked well-done, and while was not charred and was well seasoned, it was bit juicy in the slightest. Third, the vegetables that were supposed to. Be in the burger were a sadder blob of tomato, lettuce, onion, and pickle than you get at McDonald's. It was like a tablespoon full of vegetables that weren't rotten or wilted, but not fresh in the slightest. Fries were good, appropriately seasoned, and cooked well. I will add this, with the burger you get a choice of salad or chips, it would have been nice if the server gave me the choice. With the service I received, a more accurate rating would be 2 stars, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt - as even the best places screw up now and again read more

This is a pretty standard "Irish pub" in Vienna, albeit quite a bit larger. There's even a non-smoking section in the back of the bar, which also has a TV (of course - everyone goes to the Irish pubs to watch soccer, uh, football..) As fellow-Yelper Andreas noted, on Sundays most of their menu items are €5,90, which is pretty cool seeing as you can get a lot of snacky-type bar food (think: onion rings, mozzarella sticks, poppers (yeah, poppers!), "chicken nuggets", french fries, etc), on the cheap. So if it's Sunday and you're broke but craving bar food or fried food, this place is perfect for you. If the weather's nice, they also have outdoor seating, though in typical pub-style it's "booth"-like with benches instead of cafe tables and chairs. Speaking of, if you're not going there to watch a game, try to sit outside because it's SO dark inside. Seriously. This was one of the darkest bars/restaurants I've been inside, to the extent that it was kind of strange/made me feel weird sitting there, drinking a cider and talking to my friends. (They have a few different ciders to offer, and of course Strongbow on tap.) Four Bells is in a good location and definitely worth checking out, but you might want to bring your night vision goggles if you plan on sitting inside. And be prepared that if there's a football match being played by any European team (/by any team anywhere?), it will be on the TV and the spectators will be LOUD. read more

Four Bells - Bulmers cider. - Irish Pub Near Me - Vienna, 9

The Four Bells is a small Irish bar in the 4th district. The front of the pub is non-smoking and there is a smoking section in the back. The atmosphere isn't as welcoming as other Irish bars I have visited...Maybe it is the lack of lighting? Or the low ceilings? I don't know I'm just not so keen. We went for the Quiz which we found out is taken very seriously. Don't try to sit on a table next to your friends - heaven forbid! The point in our Quiz night was to go and have some fun, albeit in two teams as there are only 6 people to one team. But the two teams weren't even allowed to sit next to each other and my team was cramped into an already overcrowded corner. The service to go with this was not friendly at all. I enjoy the "banter" or "craic" of Irish bar staff but this guy must have been having a bad day. I have to say though I have previously enjoyed some fun times here with excellent, friendly staff! Drinks prices: average. Food: a little on the expensive side. Quiz: hard! The Austrians struggled with some of the questions as some of them were very "British" based. If you are into having regimented fun then this quiz is for you. If you're like us and just wanted to have a laugh and some fun then I would recommend looking for somewhere else ;) read more

Four Bells - Irish Pub Near Me - Vienna, 9

Highs and lows. Where are the lows? Dingy, sometimes crappy service. Once a hair was in a friends meal and the serve said 'a f@ck' and pulled it away without a sorry or any pleasantries really. The food is a 3/5 overall in quality, but pack taste, which might be MSG. Speculation really... :D in the end, the area is thin with possibilities and they serve Guinness. Win! Nachos are surprisingly good! And the burgers are OK. read more

Four Bells - Nachos were actually really good! - Irish Pub Near Me - Vienna, 9

See all

Naja, so ein "Irish Pub" halt, english speaking service, beer on draught (Murphy s, Kilkenny, Villacher, Weihenstephaner, Guinness...) and some typical foods (I don t know about the quality), a rather small range of whiskies, cider bottle / draught... I just tried a Weihenstephaner 0,5 for 3,7€ which was served very friendly although I was entering at a time when most of the people are leaving... Unspectacular, but worth its money more ore less Music was absolutely not Irish, but who knows what they play in Ireland... read more

Four Bells is an interesting place in my personal opinion. I like the layout of the pub itself, as the non smoking area is first when you walk in and the smoking at the back and downstairs, therefore respectful of everyone personal needs. The seating around the bar itself is comfy for chatting to the bar keeps and anyone else with you or around you, i really liked it. But for a pub and the food i found it ok but NOT the best in Vienna. I could return and even eat there again if needed, but there are better places to go in Vienna. But of course this is just my personal preference, as in fact there is nothing wrong with this place at all. The only fault if it even can be called a fault is they do not have the best food in town. read more

Four Bells wont get 4 stars...sorry! Was rather disappointed to be honest, the pub lacked somewhat the "Irish" hospitality and the cleanliness in the loos. We, a small group of 9 attended the Pub Quizz today and either though (or just because) we were more than 6 people we had to split in 2 groups BUT were not allowed to sit next to each other!!!!! No go! No way! Not possible! For heavens sake: it is only a bloody quizz, a time when friends want to have fun together and not being separated by the waiter! ( And that did not happen in a friendly way..) Anyway, apart from that it is worth mentioning that the drinks are ordered at the table, and the pint of lager costs 3,40€. read more

First time here in Four Bells and can already say that it won't be the last. This place has a genuine Irish feel to it, and I should know, having lived in Dublin for 2 years myself. It was pretty cool I must say to being served by who I'm pretty sure are real Irish waiters. Plus, the pub had those photos of Temple Bar and those areas close to it and it just put me right back to my first day visiting Dublin and drinking my first Guinness. You can't go wrong with that. The food and drinks were nice and I enjoyed my first Snakebite, which was so sweet that I just couldn't notice getting slowly drunk. Greatest way to get drunk, by the way. Overall, a pretty good experience I must say, and having read about their quizz night, I wouldn't be surprised to try it to see how it goes. I haven't been to many Irish pubs in Vienna so far, but at least I can say that this one is a pretty solid one, from my first visit there. Can only recommend it! read more

Not bad, not great, but good enough. As far as pubs go, there are many better ones. However if this one is on your way, it's worth checking out. Beer selection has recently expanded to include a craft selection. The food has all the staples (burgers, nachos, etc). I tried the burger and it was OK. Solid pub that serves Guinness. :-) read more

Solid Irish Pub. Good service, nice menu. Ate the Käsekrainer and it was delicious. Younger crowd on a Saturday night but the music was solid 90's/early 2000's Rock which was awesome. Was there alone and the staff was hospitable and kind. Feels like a non-touristy local joint. Unpretentious but has an eclectic, international list of craft beers. Definitely decent. read more

I went to this Irish pub after eating dinner at Sebastiano's (less than a 5 minute walk). Good beer selections and casual place to hang out with friends. We had a lot of laughs and ended up staying until around 4am. I will be back I'm sure. Only downside was that my clothes were saturated in smoke smell after wards, but it is a bar after all... read more

Great bar. Especially if you are from America and want to feel at home. Everyone speaks english and menus are in english. All around cool place. read more
