A market with a long tradition, the Karmelitermarkt reflects the ethnic diversity of its neighbourhood. Set in an architecturally picturesque square, the market springs to life when the midday lunching locals descend on its terrific array of places to eat. Fruit and vegetable stalls share the marketplace with butchers selling kosher and halal meats.

　　On Saturday, the square features a Bauernmarkt, where farmers set up stalls brimming with seasonal goods, freshly baked bread, speciality salamis and organic herbs. The Viennese fill their bags here in the morning before doing brunch or lunch in one of the delis, many with outdoor seating, such as Tewa.
