The Viennese bar owned by trendy restaurateur Philip G. is celebrating its tenth anniversary and is hosting an anniversary party on March 15. Within a decade, the establishment has evolved from a run-down hangout to a cultural attraction, without losing its original charm. Six musical acts will provide a diverse program at the celebration until the early hours.
The restaurant, once dubbed the "eyesore of the week" by the local newspaper, now enjoys a reputation as a "stylishly shabby" meeting place for the arts and culture scene. The operator's philosophy remains unchanged even after ten years: minimal, thoughtful renovations and a respectful, informal atmosphere. Guests should feel welcome without having to pretend.
The venue is launching its next decade under the motto "Slowly going nowhere." To mark the anniversary on March 15, various artists will perform starting at 20 p.m., including the band DeathDeathDeath, Salamirecorder, Topsy Turvy, and DJs Capeet, Bandbreite, and Lonely Fans. The plan is for an evening that reflects the spirit of the venue: unpretentious, diverse, and open to everyone.
Philip G., who has shaped the restaurant since its opening, is appreciated by many guests for his relaxed yet dedicated leadership. The anniversary is intended not only to honor the past years, but also to celebrate the restaurant's special atmosphere, which has made it an integral part of Vienna's nightlife scene.
