    Cheese and ham sandwich (soooo good!)
    Eve R.

    Absolutely adorable bakery with a small sit-down area for meals to eat on premises, but they offer to-go also. We had the best service! We were waiting for a table to open up and it was very close to the kitchen close time. Our sever took our order and put it in before the kitchen closed so we could still eat when it was time to sit. That was so kind of her! Super friendly and helpful!! Space is clean and modern. Food and coffees were delicious! One of the best grilled cheese toasties I've ever had. Soooo much cheese!

    Apfelstrudel, kipferl
    Salma S.

    My mother and I stopped by Joseph Brot for lunch, and we enjoyed it. We wanted to try the kipferl and apfelstrudel since they are iconic Austrian pastries, and they were yummy. The kipferl was great - it was so soft and it melts in your mouth, and the apfelstrudel tasted fresh and natural. My mom had a coffee, however, and she said it wasn't good at all. The bakery itself has a clean aesthetic vibe, and it has both indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. The service was good as well. I enjoyed Joseph Brot - it was a good pick for a taste of Austrian pastries.

    French toast with Cappucino

    Unplanned coffee stop. I had a cappuccino with a blueberry French toast. It was wonderful. The staff were polite and fast. I was there on a Saturday, it was busy. Despite being busy, it was still a relaxing environment.

    Baked goods

    Charming bakery and cafe with modern white decor featuring baked goods and sandwiches made with local organic ingredients. Loved my chocolate croissant and my husband said his eggs Benedict were excellent. Delicious coffee too!

    Almond Croissant, latte

    Friendly service, which is rare in Vienna. The coffee was exceptional, went back multiple times for a simple latte during my trip because it was the best I had out of all the cafes in the city center. Almond croissant was delicious, more doughy than flakey like a typical croissant. Clean and simple aesthetic.

    The decor here was minimalist but very nice. We had Iunch here and ordered the avocado spelt toast, "the Healthy" which was similar to smoked salmon toast with a side of chia granola pudding and the daily special which was something I could pronounce but also good. Service was great. I also grabbed a few bakery items to go and everything was delicious.

    Amazing salad
    Joe Joe B.

    While in Vienna I went to many cafe's. There are plenty. Most are the same and not really worth mentioning. But this gem is. Joseph brot is so much more than just a coffee shop. It is an amazing bakery with fresh bread and other tasty creations. Attached is an amazing modern cafe. With clean interiors and cool staff. It is hip it is young but it is inviting. Also it is the best coffee in town. And you can get a light clean mean. The menu is seasonal and exciting. The food is vibrant and delicious. I loved the radicchio salad! Enjoy!

    Super tiny place. Simple menu. Delicious New York Lox bagel sandwich. Good location. I didn't like having to balance on a ledge to eat my bagel because they only had two tables inside. The Lox bagel was filling..great before a day of touring. Beware the menu is not in English but the employees did seem to understand it.

    The bakery counter filled with delights!

    I am shocked and honored to be the first reviewer for this incredible bakery! We are visiting Vienna from Los Angeles and just happened upon this gem while walking around on our last day of a river cruise, and after 10 days of outstanding food. Much to our surprise this humble spot was a culinary highlight of Vienna! We weren't even hungry to be honest, but were temped by the idea of an Austrian bagel, being self-proclaimed "bagel connoisseurs" between years spent in New York and Montreal. Well, these are unlike any of the bagels in those aforementioned cities - we tried the seeded sourdough bagel with homemade plain cream cheese and it was to die for! This is the softest bagel you will ever eat. It's actually more like bread in that it doesn't have that chewy bagel quality, but I didn't feel it was lacking in any way whatsoever - it was just so darn good and different. The homemade cream cheese was scrumptious as well. I have no idea how one makes homemade cream cheese but I do feel like attempting it after trying this creamy goodness. We also tried the pumpkin cream cheese muffin which was perfectly moist and delicious on the bottom and a little crumbly-crunchy on the top. It was absolutely divine, and I'm a pumpkin nut with rather high pumpkin standards. The sweetness and spice were spot on and I could even actually taste the pumpkin itself, not just the spice mix that tends to replace *actual* pumpkin in everything "pumpkin spiced" in the States. Lastly we each got a soy cappuccino which were also excellent and luxuriously foamy (that isn't always easy to do with soy milk). Out flight was cancelled today so we have one more day in the city... Our first consolation was that we could go back to Joseph Brot for more carb-bliss!

    This was a super busy bakery and for good reason. All the bakery and food items looked amazing as well as delicious tasting.

    Service was okay. The food was good but not the best I've ever eaten. There was a wait time for breakfast, but not long.

    So close to St Stephansdom, I thought it might be a tourist trap…read more But we ordered the Kaiserschmarrn, some Austrian wines, and I was surprised, it wasn't nearly as expensive as I expected and it was delicious. A great spot to soak up the atmosphere on a warm evening. Kaiserschmarrn was light, fluffy, delicious, not too sweet. Service was friendly. I speak a little German, but they spoke excellent English.

    I visited Demel Vienna on August 19 during breakfast. I have always loved Demel from my previous…read morevisits, and I know it is a world-renowned and historic establishment, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. I ordered my usual Kaiserschmarrn and a drink. I had noticed that the table next to me had a drink that looked good, so when the waitress took my order, I specifically told her that I wanted the same drink the table next to me was having. When my order arrived, it was brought by a different waitress. The drink looked completely different from what I had pointed to, so I asked her what it was. She told me it was a double espresso. I explained that I had not ordered a double espresso and again pointed to the drink at the table next to me, which was clearly a hot chocolate. The waitress then called over the waitress who had originally taken my order. Instead of simply acknowledging that there had been a misunderstanding, she insisted, "That's what you ordered." When I explained again that it wasn't, she told me, "It's the same thing." A **double espresso and a hot chocolate are obviously not the same thing.** What bothered me even more than the incorrect order was the way both waitresses spoke to me. Their attitudes and tone were extremely rude, dismissive, and demeaning--as though I was stupid for pointing out the obvious mistake. The interaction became uncomfortable enough that people sitting at other tables were looking over at us. To make matters worse, my Kaiserschmarrn was **cold**. It tasted as though it had already been sitting out for some time before it was brought to my table. I understand that mistakes happen. Had they simply apologized for the misunderstanding and corrected the drink, I would not have had an issue. Instead, I was argued with and spoken down to over something that could have been resolved in seconds. This was genuinely one of the worst customer-service experiences I have ever had at a restaurant, and certainly not what I expected from an establishment with Demel's reputation. After several previous visits that I enjoyed, it is extremely disappointing to say that I will not return and will no longer recommend Demel to my friends.

Loved the decor, made me feel like we were transported back in time. Our waiter came, dressed in his formal clothing despite the heat outside, and took our order. For me, an espresso, for my wife, a chocolate cake and water. My coffee was delivered on a neat little tray with a glass of water to go along with it. 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. That's all I'm asking.
