Underground club in a historic location

Club U

The club is typical for Vienna. It is at the same time historical, splendorous, shabby and dirty. The location was the former entrance to the Underground, and built in the style of Art nouveau (Jugendstil). It is an architectural sight. The interior looks more like a cheap brothel out of the last century, but that makes quite a lot of its charm.

Techno hide out

Donau Techno

You will like Donau, as it is simply called, if you are a fan of techno music and big sized visuals on the walls. The whole room turns into a screen, when they turn on their projector and suddenly the white walls are full of whathever image they show. If you go there the first time you are stunned.

Feel like a book worm and enjoy yourself

Pickwicks

The typical pub food (but great shakes and drinks) combined with a very special atmosphere. One feels like Harry Potter here. Be sure to drop by with some friends and watch soccer on their big screen. Can be a little crowded - but there are other Irish pubs just around the corner.

Dachboden

Nightlife 20 1

By Christian

Coffee & Drinks with an attitude

Dachboden

20

Longdrinks (no cocktails!), coffee and pastries are served all day, but there is no food menu, so come full! It’s charming atmosphere and legere, young staff make the Dachboden a perfect getaway to relax on a comfy leather sofa during the day. As the sun goes down the place gets busy so expect a waiting line and a strict one-in, one-out policy.
