Muvamo Opinion

A visit to Vienna isn’t complete without stopping by a würstelstand, and Bitzinger Würstelstand Prater is one of the best places to do it. Located right at the entrance to the Prater amusement park, it’s perfect for a quick bite before or after exploring the rides. The stand itself has that classic Viennese würstelstand vibe—simple, efficient, and focused on great sausages.

The Käsekrainer is the real standout here. This cheese-filled sausage is grilled to perfection. Served with mustard, horseradish, and a bread, it’s a must-try. Pair it with a cold Ottakringer beer, and you’ve got an iconic Viennese street food moment.

What makes Bitzinger Würstelstand stand out is the quality of the ingredients and the authentic experience.
