Halbestadt – tiny cocktail club.
Your very own bar for an evening: Halbestadt, situated in the historic Stadtbahnbogen between Alsergrund, Währing and Döbling, combines top-quality drinks, personalised hospitality and great music with rich, full-bodied sound. A small club with a great bar atmosphere – perfect for birthdays, corporate events, Christmas drinks, summer parties or an evening with friends. Dancing is expressly permitted.
Celebrate indoors with up to 60 people. The weather-protected terrace offers additional space to get some fresh air and sit together. When both outdoor areas are included, events for up to 150 guests are possible.
We don’t just serve cocktails: a wide selection of spritzers, wines, beer and shots is just as much a part of the menu as non-alcoholic drinks. On request, we’ll create a personalised drinks menu and a welcome drink for your event. Fresh, savoury popcorn is available free of charge on a free-flow basis, along with attentive tap water service.
We’ll work with you to coordinate the music, food and décor. A sound system and DJ desk are available – you can bring your own playlist or arrange for a DJ by prior arrangement. You can provide your own catering or let us organise it for you. In winter, hot cocktails, freshly made punch, mulled wine from local vineyards and roasted chestnuts on the terrace create a festive atmosphere on request.
Fancy getting behind the bar yourself? Our cocktail workshops with Bert Jachmann and the Halbestadt crew are ideal as a team-building event or to kick off a party. Individual dates can be arranged by prior arrangement, as can events outside regular opening hours.
No venue hire fee: you can reserve a section or book the entire bar exclusively. For exclusive parties on Fridays and Saturdays, there is a minimum drinks turnover of €2,000 gross. For non-exclusive parties, there is no minimum turnover.
Enquire about your preferred date, specifying the date, number of guests and occasion. We look forward to hosting your celebration!
Rental times are flexible and can be agreed individually












The indoor area can accommodate up to 60 people, around 40 of whom can be seated. With both outdoor areas included, events for up to 150 guests are possible. We’d be happy to reserve a suitable area for smaller groups.
