BrissieBairn Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I'll be in Vienna from Friday night (flying from Bristol) and staying there a few days so will aim for the Highlander pub for the Lithuania game too. Looks like I'm going to be a Barry no mates as my pals that were going to come over don't look like they will anymore. If anyone is about earlier on Saturday keep us posted on pubs and I'll come and gatecrash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeJohnny Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Cheers to those that have replied so far - I'll let the guy who has the Highlander know that there will def be by the look of things at least a dozen / 20 of us there but could be more. I'll ask about the discounted beer and post if he responds. If you hear of others likely to go let me know and I will relay. He emailed me this morning:- "HI Johhny Thanks for the reply. Regardless of the number we will plan for a right ol session at the Highlander. You will see yourself when you get here that the pub has a great atmosphere and you will comfortably see the the game. Look forward to meeting you James" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeJohnny Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 BrissieBairn,- Three of us arrive about 11.30 Saturday at Vienna airport - we will have a quick pint there as flying in from different places and plan to dump our stuff at the Radisson which is right in the centre at 1.30 to 2pm (I know the Radisson sounds a bit pompous but we got a stupid cheap rate 6 months ago!!!). If you want to meet up with us at the bar there between 1.30 to 2pm Saturday be great - we'll just have the one there as it's expensive before heading out and ending at the Highlaner for the match. Obviously open invite ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously open invite ! Great, I'll try and head along then and hopefully get you there. Is it the Radisson on Herrengasse? I can see it's about 15 mins walk from the Highlander but there is another Radisson a bit further out, around 30 mins walk. I assume it's the first one as it looks more central. I'm staying about a 20 min walk from the Highlander and it's about the same time to get to the Radisson on Herrengasse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeJohnny Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Yup ! It is the one on Herrengasse. I think the other one is closed now. See you there. We will be kilted with the scotland away tops - the one that looks like a deckchair !!! Anyone else more than welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byrne2711 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I arrive at airport for 10:30am (give or take an hour, can't remember flight times), on my own until my brother arrives at 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeJohnny Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Byrne2711 - cannae remember exact flight times but pals arriving at about the time you are from Edinburgh on the Saturday and me about half an hour later from Stansted so we're meeting at "Johnann's Biereck" pub in the airport - been there before - it's a cracking pub by airport standards and even allows smoking. Plan to have just one there (OK maybe 2) then taxi to centre - feel free to meet us there and cadge a ride ! All welcome ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't have a kilt but I'll be kitted out in either the current home strip or I may wheel out the old white one with the splash of purple from the 90's if I can find it and if I can still fit in it!

We'll be indulging in a spot of daytime drinking before getting a late afternoon train to Bratislava in good time to find wherever everyone is for the Lithuania game. Any Vienna recommendations? I've been before, but only with wife + mother, so priorities were, errrrr, slightly different. Lovely place though. Charlie P's i am sure will show it . It is an irish bar but unlike the vast majority of irish bars it is a decent bar and not a rip off. YBIG will likely base themselves there again in November for our game though personally found it a wee bit smokey and tend not to go to irish bars when abroad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeJohnny Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 As have been contacted to ask which Highlander (as there are two) - it is the one per Malky24's earlier post at Garnisongasse 3. The guy is putting on specials etc for us. http://www.highlanderpub.at/index.html Me and my pals are meeting up with a couple of lone foot soldiers between 1.30 and 2pm on the Saturday when we drop our bags at the Radisson at Herrengasse 12, Vienna 1010. Only having one there as it's pricey but anyone welcome to join us / kick off from there. Suggestions of pubs / route between there and Highlander would be appreciated. 4 sleeps !

lyonhibs Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 Just on the train into Vienna centre. Either the beer festival or The Highlander/Charlie P's for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyonhibs Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 Currently in Charlie P's heading to the Highlander in a couple of hours. Very good beer selection here. Be warned, there are 2 "Highlander" pubs in Vienna. You're after the one right by Votivkirche. Search for "highlander Scottish pub" not just "Highlander" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrissieBairn Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I've not long arrived at the radisson blu on herrengasse. Can't see any other Scotsmen yet but I'm sitting having a pint anyway. If there's no sign by 2pm/when I finish my beer I'll head to Charlie P's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
