Carmelite Market
Carmelite Market
The Karmelitermarkt in Leopoldstadt, is a jewel of a special kind. In fact, this charming market in the traditionally Jewish quarter is still far from tourist trails. And this despite the fact that it is located in the 2nd district just a few minutes walk from downtown Vienna!
Instead, the young art scene has taken the naturally grown market out of the
17th century for some time discovered for themselves. Thus, a unique combination of fresh organic fruits and vegetables, exciting food offerings and a breath of fresh air with nostalgic charm can be found here. On Saturdays, for example, organic farmers' stalls can be found here alongside a hip sales corner from Slow Food Vienna.
Popular classics on Karmelitermarkt include Zimmer 37, where you can enjoy a store for the finest delicacies and a vegetarian five-element restaurant at the same time. Café Einfahrt is also a great place for an extended breakfast at Karmelitermarkt. But there is also a program in the evenings. Then the café bar entertains its guests with readings, cabarets and concerts. Of course, there is also a wine tavern if you want something hearty. Here you will be spoiled with sensational burgers. And in the quarter there are pizzas fresh from the wood oven! As a cozy wine bar, the Contor delivers an unbeatable selection of exquisite Austrian wines.
Not to forget Tewa, the little sister of the famous Naschmarkt restaurant. This is something for fans of organic trendy cuisine. Or would you prefer something more down-to-earth? Then the Kaas next door invites you to small delicatessen dishes from organic and slow food production.
Other recommended places to eat in the vicinity of Karmelitermarkt are: The Schöne Perle, which redefines Austrian cuisine, the dignified restaurant-bar Shopik&Lohn, the pretty Cafémima, or the cozy Schank zum Reichsapfel.
