Explore Vienna’s Taverns and Beisl with ivie
Viennese cuisine is unique, originating in the former imperial territories of the Habsburg Monarchy. This type of cuisine is influenced by Hungarian and Italian cooking, as well as dishes originating in the Balkan countries. Traditional Bohemian dishes in particular are among the most important influences on Viennese cuisine. After all, women cooks from Bohemia were among those who found work in Vienna and brought that region’s magnificent cuisine to the city. All these influences have combined in Vienna to create a unique cuisine that today whets the appetite of fans all over the world.
From the traditional to the innovative
This city walk, which is available through ivie, the city guide app for Vienna, introduces visitors to classic taverns and Beisl as well as Viennese restaurants that offer a modern interpretation of Viennese cuisine. The Tavern & Beisl Guide takes you into Vienna’s city center, but also to surrounding districts and neighborhoods, which are known locally as Grätzel. You can expect authentic locations that radiate Viennese flair – and not just on the plate either: the typical Viennese tavern or Beisl, with its wood paneling and classic bar counter, is a feast for the eyes.
