Meierei Vienna, Austria

The day after visiting for lunch the Steirereck im Stadtpark [2 Michelin stars] in July 2016 we went to have lunch at their sister restaurant the Meierei im Stadtpark on the next day. The restaurant has won a Bib Gourmand from Michelin.
 
We had already cake and fresh strawberries enjoyed there when we visited Vienna for our first time a few years ago.
 
The Meierei im Stadtpark has kept the classic villa exterior. The interior is modern and the colors are neutral, mostly white.
 
We liked that the whole front was made of glass and could be opened completely. It overlooked the canal and the park.
 
The Meierei is a place to see and be seen, so if you are looking for a more private venue, this isn’t the right one.
 
We had booked a table and were glad. The restaurant was already humming. The Meierei does accept walk ins, but it is very favored, so in order to avoid disappointment it’s better to reserve.
 
The staff was businesslike, friendly and efficient.
 
We had two Donnerwetter Apple and pear juices, one apricot juice, cucumber elderflower cocktail, one large bottle of still Voeslauer water, a mozzarella tomato salad, watercress soup, stuffed courgette flowers, venison goulash, and shared a portion of the banana snow as dessert.
 
The quality was very high and we enjoyed the time we spent there in July 2016.
 
The bill was ca. 100 Euro (ca. 106.60 USD).
 
We would return again when in Vienna, as this gave us the chance to enjoy typical Austrian produce in a modern bistro setting overlooking the Stadtpark by the canal.
 
Of note, the Meierei im Stadtpark does also serve breakfast and wouldn’t say no to try this one in our future when visiting Vienna hopefully again.
