The Tube station — Restaurant in Vienna

I leave a lot of honest reviews, but this one will stick with me for a while.

First and foremost, Barry the Landlord is an absolute gentleman (well, he's a West Ham fan so I'm probably being a little bit generous there).

But right from the moment of walking in he was welcoming, friendly and just down to earth.

He's the type of guy that if he wasn't the landlord, you'd still happily go for a few pints with him.

He made great effort to converse with me, which was fun and entertaining, but also did not falter in ensuring that all of his guests were looked after and had full drinks.

The crowd when I entered were all locals watching Football. I cannot speak German (I'm British), but this did not matter, they were happy enough to speak English to me and the potential language barrier just wasn't a problem.

They were also friendly, engaging and did not make me feel like I was 'in their pub'.

As the evening progressed, a few more English folk arrived and I think they felt the same about the venue as I did... Welcomed and relaxed.

The venue provides multiple sports (if it's on TV, Barry can probably get it for you), and has a dart board.

I had 4 pints there (approx. €20, so not expensive), the beer was cold, fresh and refreshing, and Barry also did a shot with me (which he offered to me free of charge - Nice one mate 🙂).

I cannot say that the free shot would be the experience of everybody, but it does give credit to him and shows his character.

The focus here was community, fun and banter.

I would strongly recommend you go check this place out, whether you're an ex-pat, a local or a tourist.

I ventured to a few pubs in Vienna and honestly just wish I had found this one first.

Services: Currently cash only but may have a card option soon. Failing that there is an ATM three minutes walk away.

To my knowledge this venue does not do food (he may do, I didn't ask) but there are a wealth of eateries in the local vicinity, so do not let this detract from the venue.

Not a run of the mill experience. Greatly appreciates by me. And time I feel well spent.

Good job Barry, you have a winning recipe here and next time I'm in Vienna I will be dropping in to The...

The owner is a great guy! Pub is for different sports fans. Love it because you can have a down to earth chat with the lad and he d make you feel at home. Personally I go there for 1.FC Köln games and he even sells the beer from our home town. Absolute legend! But must say, would be great if it's possible to arrange the TV in another way. It's set up quite high so it's not extremely comfortable to watch it for a full game. Still...

I saw the effusive reviews and took them with a pinch of salt. Yesterday I had the pleasure of personally meeting and seeing Barry in action, and the reviews are spot on. What a gent, attentive and friendly, he's up there with the finest bar owner I have ever come across. The clientele during the Euro games has also been varied and friendly, it...
