Wein & Gut Rathbauer is a Heuriger on the Wiener Neustädter Kanal in Kottingbrunn, run by Rudi and Evi Rathbauer. It is only open (in season) on a few long weekends in summer, but the house itself is something special.
The couple started out in 2001 with a small Heuriger in Kottingbrunn. In 2006 they began building their own country house right on the canal, which they worked on for around five years. It is furnished with flea-market furniture, travel souvenirs and pieces that cyclists brought by during the construction period. Many of them still come as regulars today. The house is also booked as a wedding venue.
In 2026 the Heuriger was open on three occasions: 18 to 21 June, 16 to 19 July and 20 to 23 August, each time from Thursday to Sunday. The dates for 2027 are not yet on the website.
Times on the opening days:
There is no fixed menu. According to the Rathbauers, it is put together each time shortly before opening, depending on what the season and the region have to offer at the time. Vegetarian and vegan guests are explicitly catered for.
Reservations can be made by e-mail to info@weingut-rathbauer.at, up to ten days before the date. In the two weeks before opening, the Heuriger can also be reached by phone, Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 16:00 on +43 664 4584606. Cash only.
