WerkzeugH Vienna

A touch of home

Sabrina from Vienna

About me With my first long-term abroad experience in Athens, along with which came island-hopping, first night-train trips, rooftop partying and learning how to get a handle on everyday life in a foreign city, the world opened up for me. Internationally rooted life got me hooked and I’ve kept exploring and sharing adventures in good company from all over ever since. It was also at the time ...
""WerkzeugH" in Vienna is a cafe/bar that's lively and creative. Staying there makes me feel welcome. Keep an eye out for their great food..."

You'll find WerkzeugH in the rooms that in earlier days hosted Werkzeug Huber, a local tool shop with a small gas station in front. In present days, the gas station has disappeared, wooden tables fill the stone-paved platform, tools have been removed and instead you'll find the the former establishment equipped with living room couches, pot plants in abundance and, most importantly, a good dose of its mellow, cosy mood.

The overall experience of being there can be summed up in terms of liveliness, individuality and creativity. Staying here makes you feel as welcome as you'd feel at your friends' place and at the same time it makes you sense you've got your finger right on the pulse of local life. There are community events like watching 'Tatort' and soccer games together and also, WerkzeugH is a space where artists can share their work.

To put a cherry on top, WerkzeugH serves great food, sometimes (spontaneously announced shortly beforehand) for free. What comes out of their kitchen is a colourful (and culturally slightly savage) combination of cuisines from all over. All in all, a lot of reasons worth going back there for!

About me With my first long-term abroad experience in Athens, along with which came island-hopping, first night-train trips, rooftop partying and learning how to get a handle on everyday life in a foreign city, the world opened up for me. Internationally rooted life got me hooked and I’ve kept exploring and sharing adventures in good company from all over ever since. It was also at the time when – bam! – I got to know Spotted by Locals and decided to contribute to the project. You could say I live a dual-streamed life, tinted by a love for both nature and culture. Having bee...
