Café Sacher

The original Sacher-Torte at Café Sacher

Vienna is renowned for having some of the most exceptional coffee houses in the world, and its strong tradition of coffee and cake is one that absolutely must be sampled.

The city is brimming with charming, elegant and historic spots to partake of this delectable heritage, but a couple deserve particular mention. The site occupied by Café Mozart has hosted a café for some 200 years, but first became known in the 19th century as a meeting place for the great artists and thinkers of the day, in a prime artistic location opposite the Albertina Museum, and close to the opera house. A resplendent, welcoming interior, all gleaming wood, winking chandeliers and cozy private booths, evokes the irresistible allure of classic, old-world Vienna. The delicious coffee and sweet treats on the menu complete what is a quintessential Viennese experience. Meanwhile, a trip to Vienna is incomplete until you have visited Café Sacher. The café that served the original Sacher-Torte is one of the most celebrated coffee houses in the city. Part of classic luxury haven Hotel Sacher, the café’s beautiful interior is as elegant and glamorous as the rest of the hotel, and it offers a stunning garden and summer terrace, crowned with magnificent views of the opera house.
