Marea Alta

In the location's words:

Marea Alta in Vienna is a queer bar in the 6th district (Gumpendorfer Straße 28) that looks rather plain from the outside, but quickly develops that "living room bar" feeling inside: warm, approachable and a little playful. Visually, the red-tinted look - with dark red tones and curtains - and an overall atmosphere in which regulars, newcomers and an international clientele mingle quite naturally are particularly striking. The bar has a long history in the scene (originally more of a lesbian bar) and is now a diverse meeting place within the LGBTQIA+ community. Depending on the evening, it's either just about sitting together and chatting over drinks - or it gets louder and more eventful: at the weekend, there's always karaoke, DJ evenings or shows, and at larger events, the area in the basement is sometimes used, which is more of a small party location. All in all, Marea Alta is an uncomplicated address if you are looking for a relaxed, trendy bar in Mariahilf that is not pretentious, but pleasantly genuine.
