Stopped by this spot on a backpacking trip through Europe. It is just down the street from Wombats…read moreHostel, so it is an ideal location for any backpacker. For Austria, the prices were fairly reasonable. The menu, printed in English and German, was loaded with traditional Viennese fare. At first I was going to go with the standard goulash, but then I spied gnocchi in tomato sauce and I was done perusing the rather substantial menu. (I know, I know, Sacrilege ordering Italian in Austria, but hey the stomach wants what the stomach wants). The gnocchi was surprising diversion from the many servings of goulash and sacherwurstel I had had on my trip, All I good think of as I took a bit of my creamy gnocchi was that some one had kidnapped an Italian chief and chained him to the stove...I hope they give him time off for good behavior but not before I have my next visit..yum
The Beer is, of course, with a wide selection. This place has a nice mix of locals and tourist so it should fit the needs of just about anyone. Service wasn't horrible, but it was a little slow even by European standards; this might have been because most of customers were sitting outside and I had taken a seat inside. The bar was really cool and I wanted to take in the decor, otherwise, I would have taken a table outside.
This is a great pub, and I only wish that I had the time to stop in for a drink later in the evening.
