Guidebook for 2nd District & More
Food scene
An absolute must on your list of things to do is visit Schweizerhaus. They are well known for their hearty food and beer. They have a nice outdoor area but reservations are a must in the summer months! If you come to Vienna, you must try a schnitzel but equally as important is a Schweizerhaus Stelze! It is a crispy knuckle of pork that can be shared with a partner.

Hands down the BEST schnitzel in Austria! If you aren't a big eater, then order the kinder sized portion because a regular sized schnitzel is enough to feed two people! A side of Preiselbeere (cranberry sauce) is a must and of course their mouth water potato salad!
