Our Take
Vienna's Donaukanal Terrace Bar
Motto am Fluss is a riverside cocktail bar and restaurant on the Donaukanal in central Vienna. The terrace overlooks the canal and the bar is built into a converted ferry terminal building. The view is the headline.
The cocktails are well-made for the venue. The Aperol Spritz is the right summer order. The room and terrace fill on warm afternoons. The bar is best from May to September.
The crowd is mid-thirties Vienna professionals and travellers staying centrally. Pair with the wider Vienna cocktail scene for a Donaukanal terrace evening.
What to Order
Aperol Spritz
Aperol, Prosecco, soda. The right summer terrace order.
Hugo
Prosecco, elderflower syrup, mint, lime. The Austrian summer cocktail.
Gin and Tonic
Choice of gin, premium tonic. Reliable.
Glass of Riesling
From the Austrian wine list. Refreshing for the terrace.
