FAVORITENSTRASSE SHOPPING
  • Tip Rating:
  • This shopping area is located at the end of the U1 (Keplerplatz and Reumannplatz). Here you are away from touristy shops and you will find decent priced goods and a good choice of shops as well as a market area and sometimes special events such as funfairs or Italian fish markets. Don't forget to make a trip to Tichy in Reumannplatz for one of their famous icecreams if you go shopping here in the summer!! If you get peckish head for the excellent branch of Bizi pizza.

    Flower stall: Beautiful Blumen
  • Tip Rating:
  • It was really lovely to see these gorgeous flowers on this stall - but I couldn't see any prices so I don't know how much you would have to pay! I thought Amsterdam had nice flower stalls - but at least all of these were real!

    Beautiful flowers

    I guess it varies.

    Palmers: Austrian lingerie
  • Tip Rating:
  • A typical Palmers shopfront - Vienna
    A typical Palmers shopfront
    by morgenhund
    Send Photo to a Friend
    Palmers stores have a very distinctive green livery, and eye-catching poster campaigns on billboards across Austria. They are the leading underwear shop in Austria - although that doesn't make them the best. For men their range is over-priced and the cuts generally a bit on the tight side. For women, they offer an extensive range, although their prices are somewhat over-inflated. However, every now and again they do manage to surpass themself and produce some rather fine items.

    Basques, bras, knickers, suspenders, camisoles.

    Depending on what you buy, anything from a few Euro to a 50 Euro for items.

    Steiff Bears: Can you bear it?
  • Tip Rating:
  • Shortly after our arrival in Vienna, we were wandering down the Bräunerstrasse when Pauline was grabbed by this giant bear. Well, that’s her story anyway - just as well it’s stuffed! The bear proved to be outside the Vienna shop for Steiff Bears. Steiff, it seems, is a German company which has been making stuffed toys for over a century: I’m reliably informed that their earlier stuffed toys now are quite collectable. Of course, if you’re looking for a “Travel Mascot” (see “Customs” tip), the Steiff shop or website may well be just the place to start!

    Stuffed toys

    Relatively little to lots!

  • Theme: Toys and Games
  • Address: Bräunerstraße 3, A1010 Vienna
  • Phone: 0043 - 1 - 51 24 89 6
  • Directions: As you head up the Graben from St Stephan's, turn left up Bräunerstraße opposite Plague Monument. Steiff is on your left as you go up the street.

    Bobby's British Supermarket: When all you want is Dairy Milk and an Irn Bru
  • Tip Rating:
  • Bobby's sells all the typical staples of British cooking - from cornflour to Cadbury's, from bacon to Bisto, so if you are feeling homesick for British or American produce you are in the right place.

    The only stockist of a wide range of British and American produce - ideal if you are getting homesick for a packet of proper crisps, some Dairy Milk chocolate etc. There is also a freezer section with assorted delights - frozen back bacon, pukka pies, jumbo sausage rolls.

    Prices are slightly higher than in supermarkets for Austrian brands.

    Naschmarkt Flohmarkt: Vienna's biggest flea market
  • Tip Rating:
  • The end of the Naschmarkt towards Kettenbrückengase is home to the weekly flea market, which is open from dawn until 5pm every Saturday, although a lot of the good stuff has gone by the early afternoon. As with any flea market there is a case of caveat emptor - you can not ensure that purchases are in full working order of that they really are the genuine article, but if you are looking for a collector's piece, or something traditional or slightly unusual, you can often find some interesting pieces here. A lot of the stalls sell furs, porcelain and glassware, lamps and furniture and also collectibles. You really get to experience the multicultural side of Vienna - there are traders of all nationalities speaking all sorts of languages. Of course given that it is a bustling market, you should take care about your personal possessions as pickpockets do tend to be lurking.

  • Gasometers were used to store containers for the gas and they were built in every city. One in Vienna has been turned to a modern shopping and residential place. Four round shaped brick building looks amazing from a distance. The main entrance is a new stylish building.

    SHOPPING CITY SUD
  • Tip Rating:
  • Enjoying the shops on a Saturday - Vienna
    Enjoying the shops on a
    Saturday
    by mel_bee
    Send Photo to a Friend
    This is reputed to be one of the biggest if not the biggest shopping centres in Europe. Located outside the city, its a shopper's paradise of everything from a hypermarket to clothes to furniture to shoes.....as well as a cinema complex, a disco and lots of restaurants and bars (past IKEA). To get there take the blue/cream tram "Badner bahn" from opposite the Opera. It leaves around every 15/20 minutes throughout the day and takes around 40 minutes to get there. (Its the first stop in the outer zone and its up to you if you want to buy the extra ticket, theoretically noone ever checks but the fine is 60 Euros if you get caught). Get off at Vosendorf Shopping City Sud and follow the crowds across the car park alternatively take the very bright yellow IKEA bus next to the 59a bus stop at the Opera. You can also drive but I don't recommend this at weekends! Don't forget shops are closed on Saturdays after 17:00 until Monday morning.
