Welcome

to Das Bootshaus on the Old Danube!

Oars or skulls? “Ruderbrot” or “Achterl”? You can’t go wrong at Das Bootshaus. Where rowing meets gastronomy, the Old Danube inspires new ideas and a destination becomes a joyous experience. But why rowing? Rowing plays a special role in our family. After all, two of our sons are competitive rowers. Both are recipients of the U23 World Cup gold and collective bronze medals, amongst other awards and victories. Das Bootshaus on the Old Danube offers us the unique opportunity to combine two great passions: rowing and hosting.

Uncompromising quality and incomparable ambience in Vienna - that's what we stand for. Fish & Chips, Calamari Fritti and the best sundowners on the Old Danube invite you to "dock". Whether seated at a table for 2, 4 or 8 guests – the holiday feeling begins to set in, especially when you are presented with our favourite colour palette, provided by the sunset!

See you soon at Das Bootshaus on the Old Danube!

It´s turkey time!

Inspired by Thanksgiving, the Bootshaus will be serving delicious roast turkey legs from Monday 26th November- while stocks last.

 

Our chef Natalia serves the crispy drumsticks with homemade mashed potatoes, roasted Hokkaido pumpkin, green beans with chorizo, roast jus and cranberry apple chutney. Goes perfectly with it: Red Zwickl from Ottakringer or a Sir Otto apricot schnapps to finish.

 

Make a reservation now and enjoy our Thanksgiving special with friends or family after a walk along the Old Danube!

On the first Sunday of Advent, 30 November, from 3 PM onwards, things will get wonderfully festive at our Boathouse: Together, we will transform the Boathouse into a winter wonderland and decorate our big Christmas tree on the terrace – with lots of sparkle, colourful fairy lights and your personal wishes.

For those who would like to write down their wishes right away:
We provide special wish ornaments in which you can write your wishes to the Christkind.
All proceeds from these ornaments go to the organisation Make-A-Wish and help make children’s Christmas wishes come true. ✨

There will also be the best Christmas songs, homemade Christmas cookies, punch and mulled wine, and the most beautiful view far and wide – the perfect ingredients for a cosy pre-Christmas atmosphere. And afterwards: enjoy a relaxed Thanksgiving dinner at our Boathouse.
