4Brass Monkey
Little inside this tiny specialty cafe lining the main street of District 6 (Mariahilf) will remind you of Vienna: English-speaking staff, Brooklyn-inspired favorites like avocado toast and cupcakes, an interior complete with Edison light bulbs and other cliched fittings. But if you’ve tired of the Vienna's traditional cafés, their formal waiters, their flavorless espressos, then Brass Monkey can feel refreshingly welcome.
