always worth a visit

Whether for coffee or for lunch, Gagarin is one of my favourite places in Vienna. Sadly, not completely vegan (but almost). In winter, when there's no outdoor seating, it can get pretty busy at times. Great staff and cosy atmosphere.

Violence and bad working conditions = tasteless food

They should stick to their principles and pay their workers correctly.

Cons: The kasespatzle tastes like worker's exploitation, Dirty bathroom

Great idea and great food

The food was very delicious and the idea of solidarity payment ambitious and inspiring!

Pros: Many vegan options (yummie Käsespätzle), Idea of solidarity payment ("pay as you feel"), Nice left location

Very good

A very nice bar that mostly serves beer and drinks, and a few meals that can either be vegetarian or vegan. I had the houmous plate that was very good. I loved the spirit of the restaurant, the staff was really nice and friendly. The drinks have a price, but you can pay whatever you want for the meals !

Pros: Vegan option for each meal, Friendly staff, nice room

Alternative / radical heaven🏴

Absolutely amazing veggie place inspired by radical left-wing politics - you can pay for your meal as much as you can or wish - if you pay more than it's recommended other people who can't afford a meal can have it for free! The staff is very friendly and place is super cosy and cool.

Pros: Cosy place, Alternative, Friendly stuff

A not-expensive cool place

Went there in March 2019, and I loved the place. The beer was not one of the best but good enough (and at 3,6€ the 0.5L), and it was the same for the food: not the best I've ever had, quite basic, but good enough (and at free price, with a recommended price between 6 and 10€). So, yeah, it was completely worth it and I would have love to have more time in Vienna just to chill there, for the good atmosphere, the anti-sexist / anti-racist / anti-fascist stickers and posters all over the place.
If you want to hang out with friends and are not looking for a fancy restaurant, that's the place :)

Pros: Very friendly, Not expensive

Cons: Not totally vegan
