    Vox Libri is a book café, and I actually only ever see people studying there.

    Vox libri, ist ein Bücher Café und ich seh da eig nur Leute am lernen

    r/wienFebruary 2026Translated from German
    Had a look there today and it's nicely furnished but rather small. Maybe I'm a bit picky but it's also pretty annoying that people are constantly rushing past... A mother with a crying baby there too, people talking loudly... so the ambience wasn't exactly great for studying.

    Hab mal heut hingeschaut und ist zwar schön ausgestattet dort aber doch relativ klein. Bin da evtl etwas picky aber es ist auch ziemlich nervig dass echt ständig leute vorbeirennen... Mutter mit weinenden Baby ebenfalls dort, leute die sich lautstark unterhalten... also das Ambiente war jetzt nicht ganz so Leiwand fürs lernen.
