Top choice in Vienna
A multiple title holder of Austrian Barista of the year, GOTA is worth a cross-town trip for its third-wave coffee creations made from carefully sourced fair-trade beans. The small, simple cafe, with bare low-hanging light bulbs, wooden stools and minimalist tables, has a chatty, welcoming and unhurried atmosphere.
Breakfast includes vegan and vegetarian options; many of its cakes are vegan, too.
