The aroma of the bakeries are so strong and heavenly, you can find it just by the smell of it. They are known for their sourdough but I was told to try their brioche which was what I got. The bread was soft, pillowy, with a slight sweetness to it that's perfectly balanced with the natural flavors of wheat flour and milk. A small batch just came out when we arrived so it was warm as we devoured it. I was told there's usually a long line but maybe it was during the heat wave when we went so there were only a few people ahead of us. One interesting thing is there's a stone in front of the store which has 2 shapes of their signature breads. They actually use that to guarantee the size of the bread. Overall, although they only offer limited items, but they've perfected what they do offer. You can tell they use high quality ingredients. This is a must try when in the city.

It was located below the street level, next to St. Peter and the funicular station up to the Hohensalzburg fortress. The wonderful smell of freshly baked bread was quite strong as we got closer and really caught our attention! Out in front was a fully functional waterwheel that was the main source of power for their milling machine. All the ovens were wood fired. It's as if nothing changed over the last 700 plus years. Upon entering we saw the prep and work areas but all was quiet like they just finished baking. Definitely small batches compared to more commercial bakeries. Since we visited in the morning, we ordered their super soft and sweet brioche rolls and the cinnamon raisin buns. Our server pulled them fresh off the racks instead so they were both warm and heavenly in smells. They were delicious. We so wanted to come back again after our first visit but we just ran out of time. Will definitely be our priority during a return visit to Salzburg.

Though the address says it is on Getreidegasse, it is located down an alleyway off it. It is a longtime Salzburg confectionery as it was founded in 1880. The shop has a delectable selection of sweet treats, including pastries, cakes (individual and slices) and chocolates. They also serve coffee drinks and have a good amount of seating if you are dining in. I loved this place so much that I visited it twice in one day for breakfast and an evening dessert. Their hazelnut pastry is something I still crave and think about. And make sure to try their sacher torte if you love chocolate cakes. It is clear why this business has stood the test of time. The quality of their products and the service here is great.

Sadly, iced coffee doesn't seem to be as much of a thing here on the continent as it is in the states, despite 30 degree C temperatures. I ordered what I have learned is a Viennese iced coffee which is basically affogato in a glass (with whipped cream!), and a (sizeable) slice of the famous cake. It wasn't as chocolate forward as I had imagined, but I enjoyed the tangy little hit of apricot and the ganache icing. An indulgent treat in a central setting - the perfect afternoon break.

We spent the majority of Christmas morning wandering the mostly empty streets of Old Salzburg, wondering if we'd be lucky enough to find somewhere to grab a coffee and something small to nibble on. I'd made us lunch reservations, but we just wanted something to warm our insides, and give us a bit of sustenance in the meantime. Leimüller checked those boxes, and we were able to find a table near the back right away. We sat down, next to a local family, and plucked up the menus to decide on an order. We thought we'd have to order at the counter, but the waitress came by and took our order. We each went with a croissant with butter and jam. I got a hot chocolate, and my husband got a latte. Our drinks and pastries came out quickly. It's simple - croissants and hot beverages - but it was interesting to me that though we ordered the same thing, we did not receive the same thing. My croissant was "normal" - no frills, nothing too fancy about it. My husband's croissant had a darker color and some sesame seeds on the outside. Not a big deal, but definitely something we noted. The pastries did the trick, giving us a bit of something to chew on without filling us up so much that we wouldn't be hungry for lunch. The drinks were hot and tasty, as well. The cafe was doing a pretty good business, but I think most of the people in there were tourists, with the exception of a couple of tables. It was nice to have a place to sit and relax in warmth for a bit. The staff was friendly and patient with my broken German, and it was nice that they didn't shoo us out right away. We did vacate our table as the cafe started to get a bit busier, but the temporary sanctuary was appreciated.
