Good food with a clear conscience - sustainability is a lived promise. The café/bistro focuses on regional products from its own Demeter-certified farm, many of which are also available to take away in the Greißlerei. Only the coffee beans naturally come from overseas.
Delicious treats from the French bakery cosmos in the centre of Vienna: when you bite into a Parémi baguette, you immediately imagine yourself in Paris, and the same applies to pain au chocolat, tarts and eclairs. Accompanied by a café au lait or a Valrhona hot chocolate - what more could you want?

Flavours from the Portuguese and Mediterranean regions take centre stage in the pretty restaurant, where the extensive selection of brunch options and tapas is served all day and enjoyed at the large communal table or at the cosy, more private seating areas.
Julia Kilarski's success with her exceptional patisserie art is undisputed. The second branch proves this just as impressively. Tartlets, fine pastries and outstanding petits fours - delicieux! The tarte au citron in particular is a revelation.
The stylish, modern restaurant serves fresh food at all times of the day - after a delicious breakfast, it continues with lunch of the international variety, and hungry people are also catered for in the evening. The take-away brunch boxes are ideal for the home or office.
The delicacies from the bakery are of course available all day, and breakfast is also suitable for late risers, as it is served until 6 pm. There is also a bistro menu with sandwiches and croques, as well as delicious coffee and organic fruit juices.
People are happy to wait a few minutes for Öfferl's excellent organic baked goods. Long established as a cult bakery, the hype surrounding sourdough bread continues unabated. In addition to the delicacies from the counter, the great breakfast is also very tempting.

Viennese elegance meets modern coffee culture on the historic Freyung. The speciality coffee shop impresses with roasts full of character and a keen sense of quality. Every cappuccino here is a work of art - a sensation both visually and in terms of flavour.
The company once made a name for itself with handmade baked goods made from original Waldviertel grain. Today, the stylish branches are a firm favourite in the city, because in addition to bread and pastries, the delicious pastries are more than worth a sin.
