We loved finding this cafe and think it’s a real hidden gem. We were so excited about the cappuccino - which comes with whipped cream on top. That was a highlight of my trip to Vienna. The breakfast deals are delicious and great value.

Ein bisschen wirkt es wie eine Eckkneipe mit altmodischen Charme, aber irgendwie doch gemütlich. Der Kaiserschmarrn war sehr lecker. Die Wirtin ist rau aber herzlich und es wird im wundervollen Wiener Dialekt gesprochen.

We had breakfast before heading for the airport. Food was great, reasonable prices and the atmosphere was cozy. Nice place to relax before our flight.
