Austria

Pub entertainment in Austria

  1. A

    Shebeen

    Pub quizzes, darts, happy hours, live football, Guinness on tap, and locals wanting to practice their English - Shebeen is solidly un-Austrian, which is where the attraction for many lies. The dark wood-panelling and high ceilings are vaguely reminiscent of a Brit pub, while the boisterous clientele and lashings of beer are undisputedly Anglo-Saxon. The small garden is a blessing in summer.

    Augustiner Bräustübl

    With swinging steins and pretzels a-plenty, this monk-run brewery proves that quaffing clerics can enjoy themselves. Fill your huge stone mug from the pump in the foyer, visit the snack stands and take a pew beneath the chestnut trees in the 1000-seat beer garden.

    Elferhaus

    Eleven is the magic number at Elferhaus, where you can nurse a beer beside Gothic gargoyles at the bar or take a church-like pew to hear live rock bands play. The haunt attracts a 20-something crowd that spills out onto Herzog-Friedrich-Strasse.

    Thüsen Tak

    This down-to-earth pub is pure rock ‘n’ roll, with loud music and walls smothered in posters of Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy and Deep Purple. Enjoy a beer and chat with Mike at the bar, or surf the web for free.

    Die Weisse

    The cavernous brew-pub of the Salzburger Weissbierbrauerei, this is the place to guzzle cloudy wheat beers beside shiny copper vats. Choose from the wood-floored pub, the industrial-style bar or the shady beer garden out the back.

  6. Scotland Yard

    Scotland Yard is a British pub with all the trimmings: Guinness, darts and a red phone box where expats can pour their hearts out to folk back home after a pint or three.

    Krahvogel

    A big black crow guards the bar at this industrial-style pub. It doesn’t make much noise, but the punters do after one drink too many. There are regular live bands and big-screen sports.

    Theresienbräu

    Copper vats gleam and rock plays at this lively microbrewery, which opens onto a garden seating 120 beer guzzlers and pretzel munchers. The ceiling is studded with 10,000 dried roses.

  9. Golden Eagle

    Great for a pint of Kilkenny or a wee dram of whisky, with a laid-back vibe and ZZ Top at full blast. Rock ‘n’ roll through and through.

    Largest and liveliest Irish pub in town, with a courtyard, live music and inexpensive standards like burgers, Irish stew and very decent fish and chips.
