Cafes and Restaurants

Right in the heart of the city there is no better place to enjoy the authentic Viennese cuisine and the cafe culture that has made Vienna famous around the world. Packed into the small space are a wide range of choices from fine dining to authentic ethnic fast foods.

Here are a few hot spots:

Meinl am Graben - Located on the corner of Graben and Naglergasse this historic shopfront is now a trendy Austrian cafe packed full every day with locals and visitors alike. Try their signature interpretation of the classic Schnitzel with the bubbly crust, or venture into their extended menu with Asian duck and noodles. Or try to take home some of the signature Julius Meinl coffees which are displayed like art deco gems in glitering shelves. website

Trzesniewski - Located like many great dining choices down a side street, in this case Dorotheergasse 1, off the Graben proper you'll find here their famed open sandwiches which make a great lunch, available for take away as well, at affordable prices. One of a number of branches in the city this one is by far the busiest due to it's prime location. website
