Cafe Sabarsky (Closed Temporarily)
The Real Deal Viennese Cafe
Est. 2001
About
Caf Sabarsky, which bears the name of Neue Galerie co-founder Serge Sabarsky, draws its inspiration from the great Viennese cafs that served as important centers of intellectual and artistic life at the turn of the century. It is outfitted with period objects, including lighting fixtures by Josef Hoffmann, furniture by Adolf Loos, and banquettes that are upholstered with a 1912 Otto Wagner fabric. A Yamaha S4 grand piano graces one corner of the Caf, and is used for all cabaret, chamber, and classical music performances at the museum.
From the Owner
Café Sabarsky is under the direction of Executive Chef Christopher Engel. The German-born Engel earned coveted Michelin-star ratings in his work for the restaurants Wallsé and Aureole.
Summer 2026 The Neue Galerie including the galleries, shops, and Café Sabarsky will be closed beginning on May 27. We are undertaking a construction project to enhance our historic building. Our doors will reopen in Autumn 2026.
