Cafe-Bar CHERI, on Margaretenstraße, is a low-key neighborhood spot that feels like the real center of Vienna's gay scene.
It’s a cafe and a bar, a combination that makes it easy to drop in for a quick drink, a coffee, or to catch up with friends.
This is where locals hang out. CHERI draws a regular crowd, people who like its genuine, unpretentious vibe. The place says a lot about Vienna's gay culture generally: inclusive, open-minded, more about actual connection than anything flashy. You'll find a friendly, easygoing atmosphere here, with visitors and locals mixing comfortably.
If you're traveling alone and want to meet people, or just want a casual night out, or want to see where Vienna's queer community actually gathers, CHERI will give you a real sense of local gay life. It’s right in the middle of the gay district, too, so it's easy to find, and there are other queer venues and resources nearby.

Super
No alternativ milk for the coffee! Some problems with the fridge. No Credit Card except because thay don't have a card reader. Most disappointing was written cheesecake in the promotion but no cheesecake. Actually the place is very disappointing. You can find many nice place around.
Unfortunately, our experience at this cafe was very disappointing. The service was extremely slow, and the staff were not friendly at all. They brought us the wrong order, and when we asked for it to be changed, we waited a long time only to receive eggs that were still runny even though we specifically asked for them to be well done. The food quality was also not good, and to make things worse, they do not accept card payments. Overall, the service and food did not meet expectations, and we will not be returning again.
Very nice cafe, very friendly service
Very good food, and very fresh
