| The Viennese have a long tradition of sitting in cafés, or coffee houses, reading their newspaper, drinking coffee, having conversation, and taking a break from the stresses of everyday life. While the coffee house culture has been around for a long time, the cafés in Vienna are still youthful and often trendy. There is a café to suit every mood and character, from shabby-chic to traditional, from small espresso bars to café-restaurants, or café integrated into bookshops, bars, music stages and cabarets. No matter which type you choose to visit, it will be a typically Viennese experience. Some of the most well-known cafés are Bellaria, Bräunerhof, Central, Cuadro, Diglas, Hofburg, Landtmann, Mozart, Museum, Prückel, Residenz, Sacher, Schottenring, Weimar and many others. |
