Restaurant Taubenkobel, located on Lake Neusiedler in Austria, has an annual tradition of creating a pop-up in and around Vienna when it becomes quieter on the lake. In recent years they have held these pop ups in a train hangar (Lokvogel, 2018), in an old post office (Brieftaubenkobel, 2017) and this year the pop up takes place in an old ballroom in the former Donauhof Hotel in Vienna’s 2nd district. Restaurant & hotel Taubenkobel is a member of Relais & Chateaux and chef Alain Weissgerber has 18 out of 20 points in the Gault Millau of 2019.

From November 15 to December 21 you can enjoy the Christmas atmosphere in Vienna and enjoy culinary delights at pop up Grand Kobel. For hospitality entrepreneurs, it is a cool idea to visit your guests with a pop up at a special location. In our opinion, pop ups from chefs from outside the region in the west of the Netherlands would also do great in Amsterdam or Rotterdam!

About hotel, restaurant and ‘greisslerei’ Taubenkobel

Taubenkobel is located on Lake Neusiedler, about 56 km from Vienna. It is a member of Relais & Chateaux and former owners Eveline and Walter Eselböck are Austrian restaurant legends and have created an oasis of tranquility here.

The ballroom in the Donauhof hotel

The building of the former Donauhof hotel has a 400 square meter hall that was built around 1900. Later a lumberyard was established in the building and since 2015 it was used by the Baptist Aid Society. Soon an event space will be created in the building, the Kaffeehaus Donauhof, a space for workshops and a coworking space.
