Cafe Gloriette @ Vienna Schönbrunn Palace

Cafe Gloriette occupies the Gloriette, a neo-classical construction high on a hill behind Schloss Schonbrunn.  The Gloriette has one of the best views in all of Vienna.  See pictures below for the classy Gloriette exterior.

After a steep climb uphill, we were very hungry and ordered:

• Herrengulasch mit Knodel, Wurstel und Ei (Beef Goulash with Dumpling, Sausage and Egg) – the dumpling is actually a rice ball; very apt to eat with the curry-like beef goulash.  It cost €9.60.
• Apple Strudel – tasty; cost abt €5

The interior of Cafe Gloriette – looks like a fine-dining establishment; prices are not cheap too.

We rate Vienna Cafe Gloriette:

• Food (tasty goulash and apple strudel):                               3.5/5
• Ambiance (good – very classy):                                                 3.5/5
• Service (good, patient waiter):                                                    4/5
• Location (uphill climb to Gloriette – tiring! ):                       3/5
• Value (reasonable for a fine-dining establishment):         3.5/5
