Palmenhaus Brasserie ist eine Empfehlung im kuratierten Guide des Almanac Palais Vienna.
Die Palmenhaus Brasserie verbindet die Grandezza einer historischen Orangerie der Hofburg mit zeitgenössischer Brasserie-Kultur – unter einer spektakulären Glas-Stahl-Architektur, zwischen üppigem Grün und urbaner Eleganz. Ob Brunch auf dem Zwischengeschoss mit Blick in den Garten oder ein spätes Glas auf der Terrasse: Hier zeigt sich Wien von seiner entspannten, stilbewussten Seite, mit einem Hauch kaiserlicher Privatsphäre. Eine Reservierung ist in der Regel klug – besonders an Abenden, wenn die Gartenbar den Ton etwas moderner setzt.
I was expecting the food to be sub-par but it was surprisingly very flavorful and well done. The pricing was high, being a touristy spot, but the atmosphere was lovely and overall a good experience. I went for dinner, but I imagine that this greenhouse is much more impressive in the daylight. Restaurant is quite casual, and probably would have been better for brunch/lunch.
It offers a unique mix of Viennese elegance and tropical vibes inside a stunning glasshouse. The ambiance is unbeatable—lush greenery, natural light, and a perfect view of the Burggarten. The food is solid, though a bit pricey for what you get, and service can be hit or miss. Great for a coffee, drinks, or a leisurely meal, but expect tourist-heavy crowds.
We arrived for brunch, just in time (no breakfast food after noon!). Our waiter was wonderful, kind and quickly serving us. The overall atmosphere was a little bit loud and crowded, so I would recommend visiting it in a quieter hour. The food selection is great but the cake options are even better. The building is amazing and the abundance of green makes it a special experience.
