Taborstraße, one of Vienna’s oldest streets, is a 2.5 km long road that connects the Donaukanal with Vorgartenstraße. It takes you past some noteworthy spots like Karmeliterviertel, the Augarten and the Nordbahnviertel. Yep, it’s one long street. Let’s have a look at some of the many places worth checking out along it.
Start your journey along this street right at the Donaukanal, where you can check out the eatery and bar with the grafitti-riddled facade, Spelunke, a unique bar that serves up stellar drinks in an interior that makes for the perfect setting for a fun night out. If you look up and strain your neck a little from Spelunke’s entrance, you might see people wining and dining on the relatively new rooftop bar, Juwel.
On the other side of the street, you can elevate yourself – with an elevator – in SO/ Vienna hotel right up to its fancy-schmancy rooftop restaurant, bar and lounge, Das LOFT. On the 18th floor, you’ll have a grand view over the city – kinda’ perfect for a fancy romantic date and some schmoozing, if you ask us.
A bit further down Taborstraße, there’s the Asian-Austrian eatery, Figar Bao.Bun, serving freshly steamed and filled bao buns. If you’re up for a sweet treat after filling your belly with baos, pay a visit to one of Veganista’s vegan ice cream shops.
Close to where Taborstraße meets the Augarten, there’s the bar that is infamous amongst the students of Vienna for its cheap drinks – Bricks. There, you’ll find loooow-priced cocktails. If you’re looking for something more hip though, you can hit up Franz von Hahn, which is just off of Taborstrasse.
Also, just off of Taborstrasse on the edge of a quaint little square is the beloved bohemian-looking bar Tachles, and the vegan eatery, Harvest.
