The Brückenstern is a lovely little bar/restaurant near the Astra-Stube, which is actually where I was intending to go but the concert was cancelled, so we popped in here instead. The first thing that stands out about this bar is the art that it's decorated with. It's all rather nice. Canvases everywhere, covered with thick bright paint. Also, there was an American guy playing the blues in one corner. The food looks like it would be good, but we just had drinks. At first we couldn't really tell what was on offer, so we just had Astra. Apparently they also have Duckstein though, so we moved onto that. The staff seemed pretty friendly, the only downside to the whole experience was that they were pretty inattentive. Both times we sat down it took them a good 5-10 minutes to notice us, and it's not like they were looking after anyone else
