Situated in a corner of the Prater, one of Vienna’s largest public parks, come to the Schweizerhaus (Swiss House Vienna), Vienna's most popular beer garden and a truly authentic Viennese experience. Enjoy its draft Budweiser beer and crispy knuckles in an unforgettable atmosphere, while relaxing under the pleasant shade of chestnut trees.
The beer house's motto is "Make yourself at home". Enjoy the individual garden stations named after the different Viennese districts. You can sip your beer in "Kaisermühlen", devour chips in "Hietzing", and delight in pastries in "Hütteldorf". The amazing food is some of the best you will find anywhere.
This larger-than-life beer garden is a must see and truly a fantasy-come-true for anyone looking to visit a beer garden. There are countless seats, thousands of beers served daily, and a giant kitchen that looks like it could cater to an army. For a calm and beautifully relaxing experience, try getting a seat in the back section.
The house beer is pilsner-style, the preferred type in central Europe, and it is quite delicious. A favorite food is the schweinsstelze, liberally coated with salt, pepper and garlic, and flawlessly spit-roasted. The skin is close to crackling in texture, with a thin lacquer, and it is known for being off-the-charts delicious. The meat is soft and juicy, and the portions are quite large and very affordable. Some other menu favorites are the crispy fried potato pancakes, delectable pork schnitzel, savory sausages (especially the weisswurstI), and a great variety of delicious salads.
