What would the Rochusviertel be without its very own market? Originally a flower market, this is now a prime place for top quality fruits and vegetables, with a variety of meats and fish, vegetables and fruit that exceed anything a supermarket could ever offer. Here you'll find shank, ox tail, Marchfeld asparagus or Christmas Vanillekipferl from the Turkish shop (all year long) and end up at Pappa e Ciccia or the Vinothek Arrigo for the best espresso in the area, a first-class cappuccino or for a glass of Pinot Grigio.
The highlight of Rochusmarkt is the farmers' market every Friday and Saturday morning. People stand in line to buy sausages, cheese, cake, bread, vegetables, fruit and flowers from farmers from Vienna and Lower Austria. This quality and freshness are worth getting up early for. read more
