Child friendly Cafés in Styria
Is it the fairy-tale rose garden, the coffee house interior dusted off with subtle hippiness, the fantastic coffee along with pastries, or the lovable owners that make Fotter at the main university so special? All of it, of course!
One of the most classic and popular coffee houses in the city has been gently modernised in appearance and offer, breakfast and opulent brunch on the cake stand are still good, along with classic pastries, good snacks and even fine cuisine!
The Fitz family has been baking masterfully for five generations. They are famous on the one hand for their elaborate cakes and pastries in miniature format, and on the other hand for their Schaumrollen (cream puff pastry rolls). Light lunches are served at noon.
On the ground floor of the "friendly alien" you can meet for a creative breakfast made from regional produce - especially nice in the garden. At the weekend you can also get “tipsy” with Mimosa and Co. Afterwards they continue with lunch menus and burgers.
The time-honoured Graz hotel hides not only a fine restaurant, but also an extremely cosy coffee house: the newspapers rustle in their holders, the scent of fresh coffee wafts through the classic furnishings and the pastries are fresh.
The Regner family has been baking for four generations, and the cakes, tarts, and cookies are evidence of the confectioner's art. The specialty is the homemade gingerbread, which not only tastes good at Christmas time and goes perfectly with good coffee.
In the stylish and modern café you can experience the expertise of Sabrina and Manuel Mauerhofer without having to walk in the front row. The two master confectioners create sweet works of art from natural ingredients - and also roast the wonderful coffee themselves!
In the hip yet extremely cosy coffee shop, the baristas do a great job and work only with the best produce. The in-house beans have strength and depth, and the small sweet and savoury snacks are a perfect match.
The small, bright café impresses not only with its fine selection of desserts. Guests also appreciate the light lunches, which come meat-free but with all the more flavour. Breakfast and brunch are also creative and beautifully presented.
Franz Lex is not only a host with heart and soul, but also a collector of contemporary art, which can be admired here. Add to this a strong cappuccino from Illy and a piece of homemade lemon cake and the afternoon is as it should be.
The small café has been supplying Graz's studiosi with vital pick-me-ups for many years - and with really good quality. There is a choice of different single-origin roasts, and they also like to experiment with different brewing methods.
The long-time (and rightly so!), extremely popular cult pub in the Lendviertel has almost every form of gastro pleasure down to perfection: breakfast and lunch hotspot with a quiet courtyard, café, bar and concert venue in the basement. And it's always friendly and relaxed.
The nice café relies on handcraft and the best quality: the beans are roasted in-house and the pastries are baked from high-quality ingredients. The breakfast is also something to be proud of, as it comes to the table with great care.
The beans are roasted by hand and particularly carefully - the result is velvety coffee specialties with a wide variety of aromas. On Saturday, there is an extensive brunch: salmon, beef tartare and veal with tuna sauce are just a few of the fixed starters.
The friendly family-run business attaches great importance to environmental awareness, one more sympathy point for the nice café in the immediate vicinity of the main university. Organic produce is used to prepare breakfast and fresh lunches with a vegan-vegetarian focus.
Not only are fine breakfast variations and Asian lunches prepared from regional produce, but homemade pastries and cakes are also served with coffee. And all this is embedded in a (family) bookstore that invites you to browse and linger.
The extensive menu leaves no stone unturned; you start the day here with a sumptuous selection of breakfast variations accompanied by strong Illy coffee. In summer, the extensive ice cream menu is more than worth a sin. You can also add a splash to your after-work nightcap.
In this particularly family-friendly branch of the Graz coffee and baking legend, a wide range of activities awaits young guests, while the grown-ups enjoy fine breakfasts, delicious coffee and sweet and savoury delicacies.
Directly on the lake, you could almost forget about the culinary delights over the magnificent view of Loser and Trisselwand - but only almost. Because fluffy fruit cakes like from grandma's bakery accompany the coffee, and also the Salzkammergut cuisine with lots of fresh catch is worthwhile.
Those who make a tour around the Hochschwab will get the necessary energy here in the form of breakfast, pastries and, of course, the wide variety of homemade pies and cakes from the bakery. Coffee also tastes particularly good in the homely setting.
