    Wow. If you want to hear live jazz music, come here! We’re here now and listening to a, what, 13 piece ensemble. The place is small, so if you want an up close and personal experience, arrive early. We’re in the back, and it’s still great! We can hear the band just fine and can watch the drummer/ensemble leader doing his thing.

    Never been to a Jazz Bar before but now I wish I did. Members of staff were so very friendly and welcoming, they made sure we felt comfortable and served us recommended drinks. If you haven’t had the Arseol (not sure if I spelt that right) Sour then I would recommend that. The musicians were amazing and so very talented. It was so great to see, enjoy the atmosphere and simply soak up the vibe. It did get very busy but that made our experience even better. If you’re around the area and looking for evening entertainment. Be sure to stop by as there’s an event every night, and be sure to have cash for the musicians and bar as they do not take card (or that they don’t accept card if you spend less than €20).

    Small club that gives the ‘real jazz club’ vibe, you’re so close to the stage and the quality of music has been great for the times I’ve been to. The staff are welcoming and friendly, it’s a real gem 💎

    Great cosy spot. Dropped in by chance and there was a jazz jam session. Friendly staff and musicians. Chatty and spontaneous. Good drinks, well priced. Pleasant comfortable evening. I didn't order food but somebody had a really tasty looking sandwich and beer. I'll try it next time. Regular jazz sessions with good sounds. Not too loud. Interesting announcements on the walls and various art on show. Photos of previous players. Recommend trying it. Very pleasant.

    Absolutely incredible place. Host was excellent, helped my friend get down in her wheelchair, bought out "emergency seats" (empty bar kegs) when they ran out of chairs, and made sure we were comfortable and had a great time. The music was jaw-dropping, some of the best live performances I've seen; their Saturday quartet are musicians playing at their best. The prices for drinks were pretty good, their ham-and-cheese toasts were especially delicious to the point I had two servings, and their bartenders were friendly, attentive, and very professional. Definitely will go here again.

    A rather small, but cozy, jazz cafe... Near daily concerts, with always amazing musicians, and good quality jazz music! Met the owner recently, after a long Facebook friendship, since 2021... He was the greatest host, and really made an effort, to have me and my friends enjoy a great evening! Can't recommend enough, if you are a jazz enthusiast, or simply want to enjoy a great concert

    A tiny place with local atmosphere, but everyone is welcome. A classic place for a relaxing pint of beer and solid jazz. I am in Vienna ever again, I'll visit ZWE again.

    Finest jazz club in town. The small place makes for an incredible atmosphere, being and feeling very close to these virtuous musicians. Like diving into another world. Very nice wines and beers as well, though my favourite drink for sure was their Kyiv Underground cocktail, highly recommend it! Surely coming back soon, cheers.

    If you are looking for fantastic modern jazz in a wonderful venue, go to ZWE. ZWE reminds me of Small's, in NYC, but a little smaller! And with better drinks! There is no bad seat in the house, because all the seats are so close to the stage and the sound fills the room. I was very lucky to see Bartus and friends, who had traveled from Bratislava for the evening, with the incomparable Ondrej Krajnak on piano. The tempest of modern jazz and intimations of Slovak folk music (?) was thrilling and certainly something I could not have experienced at Small's. The owner and bartenders were all lovely and extremely welcoming. My two visits to ZWE this week were the highlights of my trip to Vienna and all jazz afficionados should make this their #1 stop in Vienna.

    I had a lovely night with live jazz here, mixed crowd (locals and tourist alike). It's a small place gets quickly packed better arrive before 20:00. They also serve some hot sandwiches. Staff is very friendly, would definetly visit again

    Amazingly little jazz bar. The food is limited but delicious. Very lucky to get an amazing 9 people band with 6 brass instruments.

    (Translated by Google) While staying in Vienna, the big lineup of big jazz bars wasn't good, so I found a small jazz bar instead. Except for the stage, it's small enough for 15 people to sit in a space of about 8 pyeong. The stage is so close to the live performances. Most of them were local, but the staff were kind and the big band performance was really good. Quite small but that makes people can watch performances even closer. I loved the atmosphere there. Staffs were very friendly. Thanks for letting me have such a wonderful experience at Wien. (Original) 빈에 머무르는 동안 큰 재즈바들의 라인업이 별로라서, 대신 찾게된 작은 재즈바입니다. 무대를 제외하면 8평 남짓한 공간에 15명 정도가 다닥다닥 겨우 앉을 수 있을 정도로 작아요. 그만큼 무대와 가까워 생생한 공연을 들을 수 있습니다. 저 빼고는 대부분 현지인 같았는데 스탭들도 모두 친절했고 빅밴드 공연도 정말 좋았습니다. Quite small but that makes people can watch performances even closer. I loved the atmosphere there. Staffs were very friendly. Thanks for letting me have such a wonderful experience at Wien.

    (Translated by Google) For jazz fans the visit is highly recommended. If you want to play yourself, you can do that too. The service has a wonderful Viennese charm and is not as overfriendly, as it is unfortunately mandatory today. (Original) Für Jazzfreunde ist der Besuch sehr zu empfehlen. Wer selbst spielen möchte, kann auch das tun. Die Bedienung hat einen wunderbaren Wiener Schmäh und ist nicht so angepasst überfreundlich, wie es heute leider Pflicht ist.

  • 5/5 Barbora T. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent little jazz club in Vienna, with some insanely good musicians performing there. Great service, great vibe, and absolutely packed on the night we were there. The trio we saw was on fire! Danny Grissett on piano, Danny Ziemann on bass, and Jorus Dudli on drums. Go there.

    Small and unique place. You should come early to save a seat.

  • 4/5 Michael M. 3 years ago on Google
    This is an awesome tiny jazz bar. Good beer, great sound, and packed to the brim with people wanted to hear some excellent music. The night I went there it was Brazilian Groove Night. The band was epic, just a bunch a virtuosos playing tight rhythms combined with uplifting melodies. Sound again was crystal clear despite the small venue and the use of loud instruments like trumpet. Cover was 15€, well worth the cost for the quality is the show. I'm just taking away one star because it's so small, I really wish there had more room for main area with the stage!

    I visited this lovely club in 2016 when I visited Wien for Snarky Puppy concert in WUK. This little gem was epic suprise to me. Very intimate, cozy atmosphere on that night I went to check the jam session. People playing is far from pretentious, and the crowd is relaxed. Very nice experience. Stuff and drinks is also to mention very nice. Cannot wait for another chance to have another good time. No.1 place to recommend.

  • 5/5 Alberto 1 year ago on Google
    We visited a live jam session on a Friday evening and loved it. The seats in the back are the best I think. As always in Vienna, bring cash!

    Super cozy and atmospheric jazz bar. Since the place is really small, you sit right if front of the performers and can see distinctly all their emotions and movements. There is a feeling that you are a part of a local jazz community

    (Translated by Google) Sat, 9 p.m. I am currently on site with the family and listen to a wonderful jazz trio. We sit in the back room with food and drink (excellent farmer's toast !!!). My wife is a vegan and after a short advance request by email, something fine was quickly conjured up. Like a personal invitation at home. Hard recommendation! (Original) Sa, 21:00 Uhr. Bin gerade mit der Familie vor Ort und lausche einem herrlichen Jazz-Trio. Wir sitzen im Hinterzimmer bei Speis und Trank (hervorragender Bauern-Toast!!!).

    I heard that it was a bar, and he was good at this. there were so many people that at some stage my wife and people around us started to breathe hard ... they put us almost near the toilet where the heavy smell came from .. I assume that they’re sitting in such a place - at least they should ask. Does the visitor want to sit there and, in my opinion, take a different price for the ticket ... I understand the desire of the owners to earn money at any cost and squeeze the maximum out of that small place, not intended for so many people ... it's just inhuman ... in this jazzland is far superior to zwe .. the state of complete chaos and no event culture .. terribly bad!
