Café guide: The best cafés in Austria
Peggy Strobel knows how to do it: she has breathed modernity into the traditional Viennese stand-up café - with charm and a flair for trends. Italian espresso is served as well as creative variations, for example with tonic. Classic or bold - both go well here.
It's no surprise that only delicious things are served with one of the best coffees in the city: the "monthly breakfast" is adapted to changing blends, egg brioche and granola are always delicious anyway, as are the fine pastries, including a vegan variety.
Cheers to the bakery trade. In the two-story, stylish downtown branch, everything revolves around bread, pastries, and cakes of the highest quality, from which wonderful breakfasts and fine snacks are conjured up.
The stylish minimalist interior focuses on the essentials, delicious baked goods made from the best Waldviertel grain. The breakfast and bistro menu prove just what can be conjured up from this, while the delicious coffee is the icing on the cake.
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.
In this venerable Salzburg address with its beautiful Salzach view guest garden, the Salzstangerl for breakfast tastes just as good as apple strudel and the like, as well as lunch menus from the pub kitchen. The art and culture crowd is also grateful.
Tasteful period furniture and cosy elegance characterise the interior. Pastry chef Dieter Craigher himself is at the oven preparing cakes and tarts according to traditional recipes. Specialities include French tartlets and chocolate creations.
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?
This third-wave coffee shop has firmly established itself in the scene and magically attracts speciality coffee fans. Modern-urban with a touch of hipster flair. Whether V60, batch brew, espresso or coffee cocktail, hot or cold, you'll always get excellent coffee here!
Markus Brun has climbed to the top of the coffee experts' ladder, and his success precedes him. The coffee shop rightfully calls itself one of the best in the world. The quality of the beans forms the foundation, and the team skilfully delivers this to the cup.
In the friendly rooms with simple furnishings, you can enjoy fresh filter coffee. Home-roasted beans and accessories are of course also available to take home. Sweet highlights include organic cardamom cinnamon buns, the finest chocolates, macarons and croissants.
A little journey around the world in a cup begins in what is probably the city's most famous tea house: over 90 fine and sometimes rare varieties are waiting to be discovered. Whether it's a classic afternoon tea with canapés or one of the international breakfast plates.
Viennese bakery meets French boulangerie. Or vice versa? At the Mariahilfer Straße, baguettes and country bread are served over the counter to perfection; the cafe au lait is accompanied by croissants, madeleines and a delicious pyre in a to-go cup.
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.
Iconic coffee bar with two guest gardens. Comprehensive coffee knowledge is taught in the coffee school, and hand-picked beans from 14 countries are perfected in the roastery. Breakfast is in the same league - with cakes, bagels, toast and sandwiches.
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.
Stylish interiors and baked goods of outstanding quality - these are Öfferl's specialities. The handmade breads, rolls and pastries have a reputation in the city for good reason, and the coffee is also impressive across the board.
