Carl Ludwig Cafe

Great place for specialty coffee though as in most places in Vienna they have blends of arabica and robusta instead of 100% single origin. Loved the terrace on an interior courtyard.

We came here for breakfast on our first day in Vienna and enjoyed it - good pastries and my chai latte was one of the best I had during our stay. Friendly service and nice atmosphere as well.

The staff and atmosphere were amazing! They were super friendly and very patient while ordering. The carrot cake was good but the coffee itself was a bit weak and not as hot as I would have liked it. The amazing courtyard made up for that though. We wanted to try the cacao cinnamon rolls but they were out unfortunately :(

Beautiful coffee shop, the banana bread was delicious!

Edit 02.12.19: Last week I tried the poppy seed cake and that was the best cake I ever had. Not too sweet and incredibly juicy / smooth.

Edit 26.05.23: Still very good coffee and food. Very nice staff, beautiful location.

If you are looking for a place to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee, look no further than this Specialty Coffee Shop. This cozy and charming cafe offers a variety of coffee beans from different regions, roasted to perfection and brewed with care. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and they will help you choose the best coffee for your taste and mood. You can also order some tasty pastries, sandwiches, salads, or cakes to go with your coffee, or just relax and enjoy the ambiance. This Specialty Coffee Shop is a gem in the city, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves coffee and wants to experience something different. It is definitely worth a visit!

Good coffee with a nice view. What’s there not to like?

Got lucky to get a table on the outside area on a nice afternoon. Barista was very friendly.

Very friendly staff 😊 oat latte was amazing, one of the best in Vienna. They have very cute outdoor terrace.

Loved the simplicity the of the place.
Coffee was very very good and the pastries were fresh and delicious.
Will definitely visit this place again.
Also loved the mini shop inside goof idea;))

Very cozy, clean and comfortable cafe with modern style aesthetics I randomly stumbled upon with my friend while staying in Vienna for a few days. We were so satisfied with the place - the location which is nearby metro station and Karlsplatz, the offer with high quality coffee, friendly and welcoming staff and most importantly gorgeous “secret looking” terrace which offers a view into a neorenaissance garden patio (which I believe is a part of the Carl Ludwig’s palace) where you can smoke - that we had to stop by every morning during our stay to enjoy delicious coffee and beautiful environment.

Lovely cafe and great coffee staff really mellow and friendly

Lovely café, I recommend sitting in the backyard. It’s beautiful and also quiet there. Perfect to calm down after a long penguin day. 🐧

So good and the view is amazing

I had a cappuccino, and it was perfect. The staff was friendly, and the place was great!

This is my second visit here, and I would give everything here a 5 star.

Usually some of the top cafes in Vienna they don’t do mocha , I understand that they hope the customers can have a pure taste of the coffee / coffee beans. But some people like me , I only drink Mocha.

And a nice cup of mocha can be difficult to make. You need to have a super good balance of the shots of expresso, chocolate and milk. And I have requested less milk here and It helps me to have a better taste of the coffee as well.

I am so happy that the baristas here were willing to make me one and it tastes perfect for me (request less milk).

Not like some other top cafes , the baristas would give me a face like ´ I feel ashamed on you with drinking mocha here, we are not starbucks’. ( I don’t go Starbucks).

I would highly recommend this cafe ❤😘

This place has it's rating for a reason. It's divine! You get the most delicious coffee, beautiful smiley service and the cakes are out of this world. Nice plus - there is a quiet garden near a fountain and one does want to sit while listening to the sound of water! :) A guest wifi is available so you can work on your laptop here in peace. Simply put - fantastic place ❤

Ordered cafe latte, espresso, lemon muffin & cinnamon toast. They were fully self service and had free flow of tap water. Loved my cinnamon bun and latte. The female staff at the counter was so kind and polite - she lent me a charger for my iPhone as well.

Finally we found a nice coffee place with really good freddo espresso(and this comes from a Greek 🤣🤣). In addition, the space is air-conditioned. Totally recommend this place!

Simply put - delicious! One of the best coffees I have ever had
Super friendly staff, very cozy and beautiful place

Awesome cozy cafe! Wifi is strong, coffee good, and awesome back part of the cafe. Definitely a hidden gem.

The whole place is not crowded and so awesome!

An amazing place to enjoy your coffee close to the center of Vienna in a very international atmosphere. Not so touristic and with a stunning view from the patio - defenitely a recommendation for some quiet minutes for yourself or a chat with friends!
