Café Goldegg

This place is really worth going to if and only if you have the right waiter serving you! We have had so many nice brunches here, but also some awful ones simply because we were served by the one waiter with the glasses who normally works in the room at the back. He made us feel so uncomfortable and unwelcome. From now on, if we see him we just avoid the cafe all together. The manager lady is really lovely though and we particularly love the waiter MJ who is exceptionally professional and attentive.

We were advised to visit as it was close the where we stayed. The food was good, weirded both the traditional breakfast and something more, let's say, attractive and complicated. The coffees though were great. Really worth it. The service was attentive. The problem is that we were seated in a very tiny table that could not enjoy our breakfast. Also, the place needs some maintenance.

Arrived for early breakfast on a weekday. Reserved a table. Host/Server sat me in the front dining room next to a pool table. Had the Kräftige rindsuppe (classic Viennese beef soup) with a french roll, soft boiled egg, & a cappucino. The soup was amazing! Server was super efficient as he tended to 15+ tables due to a chaotic morning crowd. He seemed annoyed at first of my questions, but gradually warmed up & became friendlier. They have fancy cakes at front glass case & i opted to try one. The Sacher torte & Apple strudel are the Viennese favourites, but I went with my instincts & tried the Esterházyschnitte (a traditional Hungarian cake). Glad that i chose this one. The staff kindly boxed it for take away. It was a wonderful treat! If you happen to be near the Belvedere Palace, stop by Café Goldegg. Do reserve in advance bc seating gets filled quickly.

This is fantastic place, feel like your are at home. Best coffee in Vienna, maybe even better then in Italy. We stay in hotel near but we came here on breakfast for three days. Food is excellent and you have big choice. Staff are fantastic, lady owner hug us when we left last day. Try to book your table for breakfast.

Definitely a hidden gem. Our hotel was just a 5 minutes’ walk away, so we came here quite frequently during our stay. The place is great for everything. Breakfast, lunch, coffee and cake, dinner. We even dropped in for a night cap, returning from a busy day in the central city. The staff is very friendly and the food is excellent. When going for breakfast during the weekends, it's a good idea to book a table in advance. Judging from the amount of frequent locals and tourists alike, it’s clear why this place is popular. It deserves every bit of praise.

The best cappuccino I had till date. A very nice unique place that feels very cozy. Good ambience and good selection of breakfast. I had the English breakfast and it was very good.

We had a great experience at GoldEgg. The food was delicious, portions were very generous, and everything was clean and well presented. The prices are very affordable considering the quality and quantity of the dishes. The service was also excellent, the waiters were friendly, attentive, and fast. Overall, a perfect spot for a hearty and tasty meal in Vienna. Highly recommended!

Had a lovely time at this traditional cafe. Beautiful wooden upholstered booths and unfussy service. Very reasonably priced and nice relaxed atmosphere

Amazing place. Wonderful setting and the food was excellent. Coffee spectacular. Highly recommend.

Quick service and good food for the money. Nice atmosphere after a lot of walking around Belvedere.

great beer here! good and cheap. the inside of the place is beautiful, i loved the green seating. very classy ambiance and great staff.

The Apple Strudel was AMAZING. Make sure you get it with cream. The service was good and friendly.

Cafe Goldegg was one of our first stops in Vienna. It's easy access to one of the Christmas markets so we filled up before walking over. The coffee was great and the food was delicious. I had never had schnitzel before but was similar to a thin chicken tender in my opinion, I was kind of surprised it didn't come with a sauce so I used ketchup (don't judge my American self lol). The bacon was almost like ham with crispy edges, very good. We were greeted by the owner I believe -- who is fabulous and so nice. Our waiter was friendly and efficient. He spoke some English too which was helpful for us. This would be a great place to enjoy a coffee and pastry or eat a full meal. This place was an esthetic, cute little cafe with fast and friendly service.

Their apple strudel was great ( much better than Aida's)! Nice atmosphere and friendly service..

Tasty Viennese food and reliable service. Old Vienna atmosphere. Charming layout. Good breakfast choices as well.

Delicious sandwiches. Cafe Goldegg was originally constructed in 1910 and refurbished in the late 1980s. The decor features green booths and wood paneling. We visited on a Tuesday afternoon, and the cafe was about half full. I tried the multi kulti veggie. My sandwich was massive, but I savored every bite. Overall, I would recommend Cafe Goldegg for lunch in Vienna.

Service was good. Food was decent but was over-seasoned. It was quite expensive (€20) given I ordered only a sandwich and sparkling water.

We stopped here after getting in on the train and wanted to grab a coffee and quick bite before starting our day. We were sat down immediately which was nice. I loved reading about the history of the cafe on the menu and and how it was restored to its original purpose in the late 80's. I ordered a latte and croissant and my fiance ordered a coffee and one of their breakfast items. He loved what he ordered! The staff spoke English which was so helpful because neither of us speak much German. The menu had English as well. This was a great first stop to start our day. The rest of the menu looked really good, I wish we had been in Vienna long enough to come back and come for lunch. Also a note of cultural differences for Americans visiting: 1. is when you are done, you need to ask for the check. Here, you walked up to the counter to pay instead of doing it at your table. 2. check what tipping norms are, I think we were told traditional tipping is around 10% 3. when you finish your water, you need to ask for more water, they do not have someone you walks around filling waters. Overall, I recommend for anyone visiting to check this place out!

Absolute gem of a place. Not far from a team station and just 10 min walk from Belvedere Palace. Our waitress was kind and the food was spectacular. I got the Business breakfast (which was smoked cheese + ham + egg + spring lettuce + sliced boil egg and tomatoes ) and my bf got a lovely spread.

I loved my experience here! The service was very nice, the food was good, and the ambience was great! I met the owner and she is absolutely charming!

Stopped in for cake and coffee after Belvedere. They were quick and building unique.

Small intimate, services friendly not a very extended breakfast menu but well prepared.

A hidden gem. The food was fire and there were actually locals there. The service was great and warm and the food was affordable. Everything was delicious and there is an expansive menu. Would definitely go again.

Wonderful historic cafe near the train station. Not touristy when I visited. The menu is all in German. I had a full English breakfast, which included juice and coffee. It was a solid and satisfying dish. The ambiance is very special and it feels like you're in a bygone era.

I enjoyed my breakfast here, on a cold winter's morning. We got the Goldegg Special each, a tomato soup, hot chocolate, and fruit salad. The Goldegg Special has salami, salad, boiled egg, bread, butter, jam, ham, and orange juice. I liked everything within as it was generally of good quality, but the reason why this place does not score 4 stars is because there isn't much cooking involved here, as what I had mostly involved assembly. My fruit salad was quite yummy, but slightly too sweet for my liking. I liked my beverages, and would come back. My favorite part of the meal was the choose-two-rolls from the bread basket, and all the breads had great crusts - kudos to their baker/supplier. Yum!

We came in for a late lunch on a hot day. The waitstaff was friendly and made us feel at home, although they did let us tourists know that the bill did not include a service charge (which they certainly earned and we we were glad to provide via a generous tip). The food exceeded my expectations for a coffeehouse, prepared with fresh ingredients, and my whole family enjoyed the meal.

Excellent food, even better desserts. We had the schnitzel and some paninis, all were excellent. Of course, we followed with desserts and melange. Desserts were the chocolate torte, poppyseed cake, cheese strudel and apricot kuche. All were even better than the meal. Highly recommend when in Wien. It's close to Schloss Belvedere - a great place to go after.

A nice beginning to our visit to Vienna. The photos reflect the cafe's charming ambiance. We had excellent espresso and breakfasts. We chose the bread with three toppings all of which were excellent. Our son and daughter-in-law had a very nice breakfast sandwich. We finished with a somewhat disappointing Sachertorte. The waitstaff was very accommodating given that we still had our roller bags and carry ons with us having come right from the train station.

Excellent soup, kind prices and great customer service. 18€ for two soups, 0.5L beer and a glass of white wine. Tomate/olive soup recommended.

I liked it! The place was recommended to me. I didn't have high expectations as in this part of town you wouldn't expect to find something special. But it was! It's authentic and original. Food was good, coffee was great. Interior is very authentic, almost quaint (check out the smoker's room!). Prices were fair. And, compared to the normal unfriendly cafe houses downtown, the staff was very considerate and friendly. I guess I will have coffee here more often instead of the crowded Museum, Schwarzenberg or Central or whatever they are called. Definitely a recommender!

Atmospheric decor, friendly staff, and very good coffee and cake! Definitely recommended if you're visiting Schloß Belvedere.

Disappointed after reading a lot of the good reviews for this place. I had a panini which was decent but a very small portion and way overpriced. Not a good value here.

Definitely worth a visit! Not that many tourists. We had a panini, großer brauner and vanilla cake, all was great! Exceptional service. A very cost old school place where you can get warm during the winter and spend a lovely time. Definitely recommended!

Mediocre. I ordered the business breakfast, which was a sandwich with ham, cheese, and egg accompanied by a hot drink and fresh orange juice. The sandwich was cold and contained a small portion of cold cuts and a sliver of hard boiled egg. The bread was old and saturated in pesto. Coffee weak. Orange juice good, but only about 60 ml. Service was good.
