The best cafés and coffeehouses of type "Classic Coffeehouse" in Upper Austria
A cosy meeting place for artists, authors and bon vivants has been lovingly created. According to several baristas, the coffee is among the best in the steel city and the homemade cakes couldn't be bettered by grandma. A feel-good place for everyone.
A few monuments need to be built to the Viennese wine taster and confectioner Johann Zauner. It is thanks to him that Bad Ischl has been synonymous with sweet craftsmanship and excellent patisserie since 1832. What would the imperial city be without Ischl wafers and Zauner stollen?
The restaurant may be a little hidden away, but once you've found it, you'll keep coming back. This is mainly due to the quality, but also to dishes that you won't find anywhere else in Linz: Norwegian Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and rösti, for example.
Wiener Straße is a vibrant street where global life takes place. And right in the centre is the busy and popular café Die Bohne. Reservations are compulsory, good range of coffee specialities such as flat white. Breakfast with Brandl pastries.
For more than a decade, "Friedl" has been the meeting place for flâneurs with a penchant for exceptional coffee and tempting pastries. Because they taste so good, Elke offers cake workshops and lets people look over her shoulder.
Short and hot roasting is out of the question for quality advocate Kurt Traxl. In contrast to industrial roasting methods, the Mühlviertel native gives the beans time and teases out the best flavours. Very good: the house roast "Kurt", subtle acidity, full-bodied.
Coffee is more than just a drink. It starts with production, continues with trade, roasting and special forms of preparation. Transparency, fairness and quality at every stage is the credo of the vivid day. Here it is lived. Model café.
Kurt Traxl is known to the people of Linz as the coffee roaster from the Südbahnhofmarkt. With the café near St Mary's Cathedral, he is sure to win a place in the hearts of coffee lovers. A beautiful extension to the largest church in Upper Austria, featuring many coffee specialities, high organic quality, and fair trade.
When you get talking to Roland Mayer about pastries and craftsmanship it can take a while. But every second is worth it. You would love to be his apprentice. Pure passion, exceptional cream slices. A business with heart.
When guests see the historic building from the outside, they feel transported to a time without worries. In fact, craftsmanship has been practised here since 1878. And the light cardinal slices really do take away a lot of the everyday worries.
The breakfast menu combines the best of all gastronomic worlds. Classic Austrian with soft egg, ham and cheese or a Mediterranean flavour with prosciutto and tomato mozzarella. The vegan version with hummus and couscous is a delight.
Trendy design characterises the restaurant, which could also be in a hip Berlin district. The gastronomic focus matches this. Zero waste, lots of organic, fair trade and homemade delicacies. Very good jams, take-away box for breakfast at home.
It's hard to find so much space and such opening hours in Traun to start the day with a delicious breakfast. On warm days, there is space for up to 100 people outside, and it is open 365 days a year anyway. Perfect for organic tea and more.
Award after award: Maître Chocolatier Johannes F. Bachhalm has been honoured several times for his pralines, chocolates and cakes. And rightly so, because his craftsmanship, unique flavour experiences and commitment to young talent deserve nothing less than gold.
It is not just gingerbread that is on offer here. It is true craftsmanship. It goes without saying that the classic gingerbread, the Nockkante or the delicate chocolate-covered lynx paws taste sinfully good. Only ingredients from Austria.
An exemplary restaurant that shows how inclusion works. For people with and without disabilities. There are always exhibitions, and the food is also a delight. Coffee from the portafilter machine, delicious pastries just like grandma used to make at home.
It was a bit of a shock for the people of Gmunden when they found out that the lease for the popular patisserie would not be extended from autumn 2027. It remains to be seen what will happen with the location - at least the excellent cake quality remains guaranteed.
A greissler with fresh pastries in a beautifully furnished restaurant with lots of wood - has a calming effect. Add to that the view of the Bohemian Forest - a feel-good dream. There is also a breakfast menu that fulfils every wish. From classic to trendy to "Laxbröd".
Linzer Hauptstraße is increasingly developing into a promenade. The Beenie.all day, which boasts a variety of coffee specialities, namely 17, plays a major role in this. Plus trendy pancakes with maple cordial and berries. Great guest garden.
The glockenspiel on the main square rings three times, and every time they visit the café, guests think to themselves: this is the right place, this is where coffee house culture is still lived. In winter, Michael Breitfuß runs the best chestnut hut in Linz on Taubenmarkt.
