Café Central

Café Central in Palais Ferstel is an absolute sight in its own right. But if you want to avoid an endless queue at the entrance on Herrengasse, you have to get up early, because the fame of this legendary café has spread far and wide.

Once you have made it inside the café, you will be amazed. Even the Venetian style of the magnificent inner courtyard whisks you away to another world.

This traditional café has been the jewel of the scene since 1876 and is famous for its exquisite pastries. There is usually a pianist as well, who gives the experience a dreamy resonance. And once you have sampled enough of the delicious coffee variations, the Central also has down-to-earth cuisine to offer. Here you can dine like royalty and savour all the arts of traditional Viennese cuisine, whether Tafelspitz, Wiener Schnitzel or Kaiserschmarrn. At Café Central, every dish is sure to be a poem!
