Bars & Restaurants
Another institution in the community is the
„Eagle“. The bar is popular among locals and
tourists alike. Everybody is welcome, not just
leather and fetish, and the atmosphere ranges
from relaxed to exciting.
Sling 42
The Sling offers lonely late-nighters the possibility
to have a drink and get acquainted intimately
with locals in the diverse rooms of this bar. It is
modern, clean and very popular.
The geographical and cultural setting of Vienna
in the heart of Europe has left its traces on the
Viennese Cuisine. What is commonly appreciated
in the whole world is, in fact, a delicious
melange of Austrian, Hungarian, Czech and other
Central European specialties. We want to give
you an overview where to savor these delicacies.
nCafé Willendorf 21
The heart of the gay and lesbian scene in Vienna
is the so-called Rosa Lila Villa (Pink-Purple Villa).
This gay and lesbian center on the Linke
Wienzeile hosts one of the best-known queer
restaurants in the city. The Café Willendorf, located
on the ground floor, is a modern café-restaurant
with a great kitchen, big portions, reasonable
prices and an enchanting small garden in
the courtyard. The clientele is mixed, although
many lesbians especially favor Café Willendorf.
Most visitors start their bar tour here at the
“Villa”, which is the colloquial name of this
building.

Restaurants
Café Standard 20
This wheelchair accessible restaurant was
opened by a group of lesbians. It should be
mentioned particularly for the good food and
pleasant music. The members of the women
dance group “Resis.dance” have already made
this restaurant their regular meeting place.
Zum roten Elefanten 23
“Good things come in little packages” best
describes this café/restaurant. Inexpensive lunch
menus and set two- or three-course dinners are
available for a short lunch stopover or to still your
hunger before starting an evening tour on the
town. Its close proximity to downtown and the gay
district as well as the Mariahilfer Strasse shopping
area give you the opportunity to enjoy some
coffee and homemade cakes or pastries in the
afternoon to relax from sightseeing or an exhausting
shopping spree.
!Dunkelbunt 4
The café/restaurant at the KunstHausWien —
the Hundertwasser Museum which shows changing
exhibitions — is one of the favorite places of
the in-crowd — gay, lesbian or straight. The
recent change in owners has given this unique
restaurant a thorough facelift. What makes this
place really special is the luscious decor of flowers
and plants and the extravagantly uneven, yet
cosy, Hundertwasser design. The whole place is
a unique oasis just off the city center — a
definite must-see.
