Frequently asked questions about Vienna Zoo restaurants
What should I try at a Vienna Zoo restaurant?
If you want to try traditional, Austrian cuisine, head to Tirolergarten, and order their Tafelspitz, a classic boiled beef dish with horseradish sauce. For dessert lovers, the Cafe Hietzing serves Viennese apple strudel or Kaiserschmarrn, an ‘emperor's mess’ pancake served with fruit compote. You must try Viennese sausages at any of the kiosks and cafes inside the Schonbrunn Zoo.
Can I bring my children to the restaurants?
All Vienna Zoo restaurants are family-friendly and accommodate visitors with children. A majority of the establishments offer a cozy and relaxed atmosphere, perfect for dining with children. Gasthaus Tirolergarten offers a child-friendly menu. Jumbo Buffet, Cafe Hietzing, and Rhino Bar Ice Cream Parlor are a few options you can consider when dining out at the Schonbrunn Vienna Zoo.
Can I see any animals from the restaurants?
The Rhino Bar Ice Cream Parlor, as its name suggests, offers clear views of the Indian one-horned rhinoceros in their enclosure. The Beer Garden, situated close to the Big Cat House, offers views of the lions, tigers, and leopards. You can grab a bite at the Cafe Restaurant ORANG. erie and watch the orangutans nearby flaunt their antics.
Can I drink at the restaurants?
The Gasthaus Tirolergarten and Beer Garden are must-visit restaurants inside the Schonbrunn Zoo. They offer a wide range of Austrian beers and a fine selection of wines. Cafe Restaurant ORANG. erie and Cafe Hietzing are a few other popular places, which serve a range of spirits and cocktails.
Is there fine dining at any restaurant in the Schonbrunn Zoo?
Gasthaus Tirolergarten offers both indoor and outdoor seating, with a more relaxed and romantic setting, as compared to quick-service options. While it is not exactly a fine dining restaurant, it offers an extensive menu, featuring both traditional and international dishes.
When do Vienna Zoo restaurants close?
Most restaurants at the Vienna Zoo are open for lunch and dinner, between 11:30pm to 2:30pm, and 6pm to 10am. Most establishments extend their closing hours until after midnight, especially on weekends. The casual cafes and bistros have a more relaxed schedule, where you can grab a coffee and sandwich early in the morning.
Are there any vegetarian restaurants at the Vienna Schonbrunn Zoo?
While several restaurants offer vegetarian options, there isn’t an establishment inside the Vienna Zoo, which is solely dedicated to serving vegetarian food. The Cafe Restaurant ORANG. erie serves a mix of international and traditional dishes, with a focus on providing alternative options for vegetarians.
Can I bring my own food to the zoo?
You are free to bring a lunch box and have a picnic in the zoo’s seating benches or green areas. You can also pick up snacks from nearby restaurants and have them in the open spaces. We recommend parents bring snacks for their toddlers, as sometimes the restaurants are crowded during rush hours, and your order may take a while.
