Schnitzelwirt: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a meal cost?
Schnitzelwirt works out at EUR 10 to EUR 20 per person as of 25 September 2026, and the side dish is part of the plate price rather than an extra line on the bill. That makes it roughly half the cost of a first-district schnitzel dinner.
Can I pay by card?
No. Schnitzelwirt takes cash only, so bring notes for the full bill including drinks. Nearby Neubaugasse has bank machines if you arrive unprepared.
When is it open?
Schnitzelwirt serves Tuesday to Saturday from 10:45 to 21:30 and stays closed on Sunday and Monday, as listed in September 2026. Lunch and dinner both run from the same kitchen.
How big are the portions?
Large enough that most guests share or take leftovers. Reviewers consistently describe the servings at Schnitzelwirt as very generous, and each schnitzel already arrives with a salad or other side included.
How does it compare with the famous city-centre restaurants?
Schnitzelwirt trades polish for price: it is a plain Neubau tavern at Neubaugasse 52 rather than a historic room near the cathedral. It ranked 173 of 5,945 Vienna restaurants on Tripadvisor from 2,192 reviews in September 2026.
