Schikadener Bar
Named after Emanuel Schikadener, who wrote the libretto for Mozart's The Magic Flute, this is a positively grungy bar along the fashionable Margaretenstraße in Vienna’s District 4. It’s all about the crowd here, which is young and cool and artistic and alternative. Friday and Saturday nights are especially fun. Also: Cheap booze and toasted sandwiches served with a generous side of ketchup. Enough said. (The premises is attached to the neighboring art cinema, Schikadener Kino. )
