We asked the waiter if we could sit and since the first moment his attitude was off, he said we could sit if there were tables available, we were gonna sit and he yelled at us that someone else was first. I mean then maybe pay more attention to your costumers waiting? how were we supposed to know? We sat down and the other young waiter was nice. One of our dishes never came, the waiter never came to check the tables on our side, when we called him to ask again for the dish he acted rude and careless again. He acted surprised there was a dish missing, even though he apologized, service was very disappointing. We waved several times to pay, we just stood up and went to pay in the cashier. Never coming back, it’s sad cause it’s a cool place and the food is good! I was thinking having breakfast with my family there a few days in this trip but I will not. We felt discriminated cause of our nationality, all the other costumers got a great service, he even chatted with them. PS we thought it was a croissant with jam and butter, it was a plain white bread. Hope you can sort this out in the future. Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4

The Putengeschnetzeltes and Topfenstrudel were delicious and the staff friendly and efficient. The Tom Waits playing just before closing only added to the atmosphere Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The atmosphere is unbelievable, it’s cozy, comfy and the coffee is delicious. This is perfect for your game nights, brunch, family meetings or just doing work or uni stuff. Also- lots of books, also english, and great choices. They also advise you, if you can’t decide. I always go for the vegans lentil soup, which is my favourite dish. They in general offer more traditional viennese food, so not a lot of vegan options, but it is worth every cent. Space is enough, but not really for groups bigger than 6, and book a table on rainy days! Price per person: €10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

How unfortunate. Terrible service, the team seemed stressed, lack of caring and service mind . read more How unfortunate. Terrible service, the team seemed stressed, lack of caring and service mind .

Very unfriendly. I don’t recommend going there. They treat customers like cash cows, and after eating, you’re told to leave in a very unfriendly way. read more Very unfriendly.
