    Green Coffee

    The rich aroma of coffee pervades your senses as you enter this relaxed café on an otherwise nondescript section of Marszałkowska. The coffee is reputedly the best in town, and the food an inviting mix of cakes, quiches, sandwiches and muffins. Service apparently depends on the weather.

    Café Belle Epoque

    This atmospheric café is a fairyland of chiffon, velvet and lacy lampshades, crammed with bric-a-brac and dusty antiques – you can buy pretty much anything you see here. An excellent range of speciality teas is accompanied by a menu of cakes, snacks and light meals.

    k.u.k. Hofbäckerei

    Fritz Rath pours passion into creating the best Linzer Torte in the city’s oldest café (first mentioned in 1371). Whiffs of sugar and butter permeate the wood-panelled café, crammed with Sissi portraits and Habsburg curios.

    A blast from the 1920s, Traxlmayr is a Viennese-mould ­coffee house with a buzzing atmosphere, high ceilings and dickie-bow-tied waiters carrying trays piled high with dainty sandwiches and strudel.
