Sax Pub

Über diesen Ort Sax Pub

Sax Pub on the Schleifmühlgasse in the 4th district is one of the more entertaining options in Vienna's gay bar landscape — a venue that invests in performance and programming rather than relying solely on atmosphere and décor. Regular drag shows and karaoke nights give the calendar structure and pull in a crowd that is there as much for the event as for the drink, which produces an energy that the more sedate bars in the neighbourhood cannot match on their best nights. The bar is well-placed in the narrow streets between the Naschmarkt and the Wiedner Hauptstrasse, and the Schleifmühlgasse is itself one of the more characterful bar streets in the area — small, intimate, with a neighbourhood feeling that the larger commercial streets lack. The crowd is mixed in the best sense: local regulars, tourists who found the address in a guide, people who came for the drag show and stayed until 3am. Sax Pub is a reliable and genuinely fun addition to an evening in Vienna's gay district.
