If you’re a student in Vienna and you don’t know about this place, then you’re studying too much. Having just emerged from renovations with a new price list and look, Tunnel isn’t as cheap as before, yet has expanded its menu which still includes many cheap options, from sweet and savoury Palatschinken (pancake with filling), empanadas (2.80 €), filled pita bread sandwiches (4.80–5.90 €), to main dishes ranging in price (7–12 €) and cuisine (Middle Eastern, French, Viennese kitchen classics). Any time of day this place acts as a living room for the young and struggling student, also offering a cheap and inventive breakfast menu (See ‘Breakfast for Champions’ made up of a cigarette and a coffee for 2.90 € – to know what we mean by inventive). The dark wood bench booths and bar of a Gasthaus add a cosy warmth to the 2-storey place with an echo and huge tunnel-shaped windows. There’s often live music throughout the week and piles of board games to play on the big spacious tables.
Cheap Eats we recommend
Empanadas x 3 = 7.20€
Maklube (a Middle Eastern dish made up of meat, rice, and fried vegetables) = 7.90€
Falafelteller (Falafel plate) = 5.50€
