    The Yelp App helped out so much when we ventured to Vienna for a friends 30th Birthday. Vienna is SUCH a great City, but staying in a lovely hotel away from the touristy areas and the busy shopping streets meant that we had no idea where to grab breakfast on a very rainy and grey morning. We typed breakfast into the app and checked out what came up. One of the top hits was Weltcafe (which was around a 20 minute walk from where we were staying) and having a peruse of the of the pictures and the description, it was clear that this was the place to be! Again... the Yelp app directed us to the cafe (which was reasonably easy to find) and we popped in to shelter from the weather and grab something healthy and filling to set us up for the day. First thing to note, the menu was in a variety of languages so we could easily see all the different platters that were on offer. There were also photos of all of the dishes, so you knew exactly what you were ordering too (which was very handy). We ordered our food and a coffee and settled in. The ambiance is very relaxed and I could see myself working in here with my laptop if I lived in the area. The staff were helpful and welcoming and we felt right at home. The coffee was fantastic and well needed after a late one the night before. Once the food arrived we were pleased to note it was exactly as described. Fresh, filling and tasty, I have no complaints at all about the quality. We popped in for a quick breakfast, but ended up staying for about an hour and a half (sipping several different coffees). The final cost for the two of us to have a healthy and hearty breakfast with (at least) two hot drinks each was under €20. We actually wanted to go back during our trip to try out the rest of the options, but there just wasn't time. When I get back to Vienna, I will definitely be heading back to the Weltcafe to try some more of their menu.

    Part of the Viennese charm are the classical around-the-corner cafés, yet this unconventional café fits perfectly with the more modern aspecs of the city. I've heard and read the Welt Café has amazing food, so I wanted to try it out and to be honest the food was really incredible! I had the Idonesian breakfast, combining hot fruits-filled-chocolate-dipped pancakes with a cold and refreshing yougurt. Also, you have to try the Mexican coffee, especially if you love cinnamon es much as I do on a rainy and cold morning.

    Plain but pratical.

    I really had a great time here and i would recommend it to anyone. It has two different parts that creates to different atmospheres. In the standard part with table and chairs for eating, you will enjoy a pleasant environment to enjoy the great food they have to offer. However if you use the other part which sofa and coffee tables, you will find the environment much more relaxed and very enjoyable for beverage drinking and chatting. My Personal points system out of 10, standard for Vienna is 5. Location: 7 Atmosphere: 8 Decor: 7 Size: 7 Non Smoking Area: Yes Coffee temperature(*2): 7 Coffee taste: 7 Service(*1): 9 *1=(Standard in Vienna is 5 on my scale) this is based on that you get serviced fast but you have to work hard to pay at the end) *2=(Standard in Vienna is 5 on my scale) I always have a Caffè latte as my control coffee. My coffee partner always has a Mélange.

    So this is what a curry that doesn't taste of anything look like

    It is not always easy to be a born Yelper and have that constant urge to discover new places instead of sticking to the old and already well-known and good ones. At least that is how I tried to explain to myself the waste of resources in Weltcafe the other day, including an almost food poisoning: the passion to discover also comes with a price. Not that I am a fan of other Weltladen products including super expensive mostly everything. But the idea of a cafe, which offers the whole range of organic/fair traded world foods, plus the tempting reviews of exotic breakfasts made me have to go. We went for an early lunch though, as the time of breakfast was already over, and brunch buffet on that red tablecloth was not all that appealing. I mean, you could have a mishmash from the buffet, and I guess you are even better off that way than with what we had. But after a brunch I usually feel full in an unorganized way, so I opted for a Hauptspeise. I found it very practical that you can have a curry and your husband e.g. a burrito at the same place. My husband ordered a salad with baked chicken though, and was regretting it the rest of the day. It is annoying because you can't undo eating it later on when you suffer. The only problem was not that the salad tasted of absolutely nothing, just to make sure that it meets the standard set by my absolutely tasteless vegetable so-called Thai-Curry.. but there were apparently also some rotten parts involved in it, which gave us headache and moreover tummy ache only later. I had to laugh at myself afterwards for carefully asking if my Thai Curry was going to be too hot, because that kitchen had obviously run out of most basic salt and pepper, not to mention some of the fancy spices Weltladen could have in its porfolio. I had a few bites and gave up at the point when the photo was taken. And then I wondered again, why is it not generally acceptable behaviour to send food back just on the basis of absolute lack of features that make food enjoyable? I couldn't complain that I found a hair or a spider leg, but this was also legitimate enough. Instead, we paid 17 eur for an attempt to eat and quickly switched to Francais to overwrite the experience with some low-risk quiche. By the way, the sofas are cosy to chill on for hours and the flair would have been enjoyable too, if only the food was edible. However, this place seems to be so well-frequented that I only suppose the others don't mind.

    The brunch buffet at this place is so over the top that it (almost) brings tears to my eyes. Usually a big buffet means subpar quality but not at this place. Everything tasted amazing, especially the falafels, masala rice balls, (simply) scrambled eggs(!!), bread pudding... Wow. What massive flavor. Mexican coffee as recommended by other yelpers was also great. Service is really freaking excellent and they have an English menu.

    Valentine's Day special!

    This is a great spot to just kick back and enjoy a coffee, tea, beer or even a tasty breakfast. I say breakfast as I haven't tried anything else. This is my go to breakfast location and they aim to please. My favorite is the English breakfast, but they do have a large menu with lots of other options. But like any other favorite once you find something you don't want to switch it for anything else.

    The breakfast with muesli and fruit filled pancake/chocolate sauce. Delicious

    Overpriced, slipshod and probably unhealthy. We ordered turkish and french breakfast plates and they were both really bad.

    Nice atmosphere, student prices, and very interesting coffees (e.g. pepper and cloves). I'll definitely go there again!

    If I had to think about the top five things I've ever eaten, this place would take the cake…read more(figuratively and literally, hehe) in terms of dessert. Like Demel, Cafe Central is a MUST visit when you go to Vienna, where the coffee houses are a sight to behold on their own. Yes, the wait is quite long. Every time I pass by, there's a line, but it actually goes rather quickly and if you can find something to do to pass the time, it's like nothing at all. First off, the interior is STRIKING, a work of art in its own right with marble columns, stylish looking cafe tables, and paintings every where you go. Apparently Sigmund Freud has been a frequent patron here. Even if you were to get nothing at all, just the experience of sitting here is worth your eyes absorbing. But, oh!--the cakes--and the coffees! I had me an iced coffee that had a great body mixed with a delicate flavor to give me a jolt through the day. The hazelnut cake was airy and fluffy, not at all too sweet like American desserts have a tendency to be! The staff here move efficiently, and I love how there's no pressure to hurry up and pay your bill or make your order. A repeat place to be sure if I were to go back to Vienna. My twin and I went on Sept '25 for our vacation.

    The famous Cafe Central!!! I was so excited to go here that I almost gave up because of the long…read moreline. I went around 9:00 AM. The line moved pretty quickly, though, and I waited about 30 minutes. The interior is stunning. I was completely enamored with the architecture and the structure of the building. I was not overly hungry, but I wanted to try the goulash and the apple strudel. Get the strudel with the sauce. 10/10. Amazing. I would absolutely do it again.
