This cozy restaurant opened in 2012 and quickly became popular among the Viennese for its vegan cuisine and charming interior!

The mere thought of eating here waters my mouth. Besides the food, I also like the huge window to look out on Karmeliterplatz. Do you happen to see men in black with big hats and sidelocks? Many Orthodox Jews call Vienna’s second district their home – if you want kosher dining, check Bahur Tov or Simchas.

Back to Harvest now before getting lost in the where-to-eat-out-next shuffle. The place has a distinct living room vibe. The Harvest crew carefully selects their ingredients, organic and as eco-friendly as possible. They keep coming up with new ideas, the latest being: on Tuesdays, they serve Schnitzel, and on Thursdays, Nockerl (the Austrian version of gnocchi, more or less).

You could try dishes like goulash with bread dumplings, lentil salad with walnuts and pears, or the legendary Austrian Kasnockerl (imagine something like gnocchi with cheese). You should try their vegan brunch on weekends and most public holidays (10:00-15:00). The vegan cakes are also to die for. And I love that you can also get alcohol-free wine here! If that last part caught your attention, continue reading here!
