Café Leopold

What makes Café Leopold special is an exciting mix of Asian and international cuisine rounded off with Austrian classics. In summer, its outdoor seating area entices you to while away the hours in the MQ Main Courtyard.

Café Leopold offers ambitious Asian fusion cuisine alongside Viennese favorites and produce from regional suppliers. From sushi, poke bowls, and bulgogi to Wiener Schnitzel and hot chocolate muffins, there’s something here for every taste. The café aims to be as attractive to museum visitors from all over the world as it is to guests from Vienna. Café Leopold is run by the restaurateur group around Tie Yang, which has specialized in south Asian and Chinese specialties for more than 15 years, operating various restaurants in Vienna that offer culinary diversity and epicurean surprises.

The restaurant’s visual concept was created by the international artist Jun Yang in cooperation with local architecture studios. Klaus Schwarzenegger was brought in to head the design team for Café Leopold as head planner. Despite a complete renovation of the venue in 2017, the café’s original character has been preserved. Individual elements, such as the light fittings designed in the basic geometric forms of circle, square and rectangle, the glazing in the bar, the bright counter, and the booth at the back of the venue, have now been redesigned with “Viennese chinoiserie.” The furniture is in elegant gray, with tables and Vitra designer armchairs.

In summer, outdoor seating also entices you to while away the hours in the MQ Main Courtyard next to the basin.

Café-Restaurant Kaan

Café Restaurant Kaan is ideal for a quick lunch, a long dinner, or coffee and cake in the afternoon.
French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean Philippe Vassal are responsible for the outstanding design. The patterned floor tiles evoke a Turkish café. They were designed especially for the space by the architects in partnership with the Vienna-based Turkish artist Asiye Kolbai-Kafalier and were hand-crafted in Istanbul.

Glacis Beisl

Under the motto “Viennese with a twist,” the legendary Glacis Beisl offers culinary tradition with a mix of classics of Viennese and old Austrian cuisine.

Located at the exit from the MuseumsQuartier onto Breite Gasse and Spittelberg, Glacis Beisl offers the perfect symbiosis of the modern and the traditional both on the plate and in the setting. On the menu you’ll find classics of Viennese and old Austrian cuisine such as Schnitzel and goulash alongside lardo from Turopolje pork on violet potatoes. The Glacis Beisl building was designed by Arkan Zeytinoglu, combining the look of a traditional Viennese Beisl (pub) with modern elements. The overall impression is created by dark wood combined with absinthe-green Resopal tabletops and a poured terrazzo floor, integrating the tradition of an authentic Beisl into the urban environment. The garden with its secluded bower under tall nut trees is a highlight in summer.
