Skopik and Lohn is a wine bar and restaurant in Leopoldstadt with a serious natural wine focus. The room is intentional — beamed ceilings, dim warm lighting, around 50 seats — and the wine list runs to around 150 European naturals with deep Austrian and German representation.
The kitchen runs serious modern Austrian plates. The bartender-sommeliers explain each pour. The bar is the kind of Leopoldstadt institution that locals defend.
The crowd is mid-thirties Leopoldstadt professionals and visiting wine enthusiasts. Pair with Heunisch and Erben for a complete Vienna wine evening.
