Repair here to find some peace and quiet away from the Himmelpfortgasse's busy shoppers. A visual treat is the original turn-of-the-20th-century interior with the obligatory red-velvet seating and somewhat tired upholstery (if you don't suffer from back problems you'll be fine). The breakfasts served here are legendary, having never lost that original "egg-in-a-glass" touch. You'll find fewer tourists here than in other typical Viennese cafés, so head here for real patina, which it has earned as this establishment first opened its doors in 1824.
