The building is very elegant and classical, really enjoyed the atmosphere as walking in, we sat down at a corner next to the window and could not wait to try out the coffee and pastries here. We got Cafe Central Kafee and Maria Therasia for coffee and shared one Viennese Apple Strudel. The coffee is so smooth and with the added liquor, the fragrance is amazing!!! No question, this is the BEST Apple strudel I've tasted, crunchy texture for the outside crust and the filling is full of fruity flavors. We spent about a bit more than an hour there and that was the most relaxing, appreciating and beautiful moment among this Europe trip.

Well known for being a beautiful and historic cafe established 1876 frequented by the likes of famous names like Trotsky and Freud, this traditional Viennese coffeehouse and cafe is a popular tourist destination. Having walked by around 7:30pm the prior evening and seeing a line of about 15 people outside, the next morning arriving around 9am the line was about 15 minutes without reservations. Upon entering the inside is beautiful, cavernous domed ceilings, chandeliers and a very classic bistro vibe. Enough seating for probably 150 customers, quite large inside, and about two-thirds full. That's when I realized the line outside was more for show, which at some places I get because staffing might be hard and they want to ramp up the pacing between breakfast and lunch services. In a place like this it seems more like a marketing technique to create hype, which kinda annoyed me--it's not respectful of customers' time. It took a while maybe 10 minutes for a staff member to pass menus, then another 10 minutes for him to come back and check in. What I'll say is he was swift to answer our questions and knew the menu well. In general service felt lacking though, after eating it took quite a long time to get our server's attention again to get the check. For breakfast I was a little surprised by the prices for the food offered, on the high side. While the vegan spreads were very good, from the menu it wasn't clear that it was actually vegan cream cheese that was the base of the spreads. Unfortunately the rest of the food was meh, €14.50 for a small croissant (not especially good), a plain roll, a boiled egg and latte, with a pat of butter and jam. Would I come back? Maybe to try a couple of their baked pastries and dessert, but not for breakfast. For more info: https://cafecentral.wien/en/

We did a quick menu perusal but really knew that we wanted to try the kaiserschmarrn which was a traditional Austrian dessert made up torn up pancakes, served with a plum compote and dusted with powdered sugar. It was light, had a nice caramelized flavor from browning in the pan and little pops of more sweetness from the raisins. It was so delicious that we came back the next day for more but shortcut the line and got it to go from the takeaway window. Same kaiserschmarrn but around 3 Euros cheaper for a larger serving. After eating we wanted around the restaurant and towards the back you can see just how the cooks juggled making many pans of Kaiserschmarrn at the same time.

You see the big slices of different cheesecakes and other cakes, and your first impression is that, oh... these things are too rich, I will never finish it! Maybe, maybe not... but the thing about it is, I noticed that the cheesecakes in Vienna are not as rich or sweet as the ones made in North America, so actually, that's a good thing. Don't get me wrong... the giant slice of cheesecake served there will definitely fill you up, and you will also need at least one or two cups of coffee or espresso (I prefer the "verlaengerter" / "Americano", which is basically a black coffee with added hot water to stretch it out and dilute it a bit.). Yes, that's just to wash the cheesecake down with. Give it a try; you will definitely not be disappointed!

The waiter then pretty much left us alone as we took our time eating and drinking. Pricewise, the cafe seemed similar to other coffee shops we had visited during our trip. So why not more stars? Largely because the food being offered isn't vegan friendly. Maybe that is due to tradition, fine I understand that if that's the case, but I've heard that there are other traditional cafes in Vienna that do have vegan options. Just give me one.

I got myself a good sized Austrian-style continental breakfast with rolls, butter and jam, cheese, cold cuts, coffee, orange juice, and a soft-boiled egg. A colleague of mine had the bacon and eggs, which also looked pretty good as well. I saw a bunch of champagne bottles around, which sort of reminds me of a champagne brunch that we have on Sundays at the Ak-Chin Harrah's Casino back in my hometown in Arizona (though of course, not as large or extensive). I like the fact that they open this early; it isn't like you're going to find an IHOP or Denny's in Vienna, so I suppose this is a good substitute if you want a decent breakfast at this hour. In addition to breakfast, they also serve sandwiches, light meals, and typical café pastries and cakes. It's a pretty decent place to go.
