Café Goldegg

On Good Friday, we had lunch during our trip to Wien. After spending an exciting and "exhausting" morning in the Belvedere Palace, we decided to "recharge our battery" before soldiering onto the military museum and Panzerhalle. The cafe culture in Wien is world famous, we picked Cafe Goldegg for logistic reason as it is handy to both the Belvedere Palace and the Arsenal precinct. We did not have to wait and a very efficient waitress led us to our table. The décor was amazing and reminded us the 19th century or early 20th century immediately. We had to try the sausage and goulash. It came with fresh bread roll. Of course we also Almdudler, coffee and apple strudel. In one word, delicious. The drinks and food were presented to us in a very orderly manner, rather than arriving all at once. The bill? It was also very palatable. Experiencing cafe culture is a must for every visitor to Wien and visiting Cafe Goldegg will not disappoint. Strongly recommended!

We recently visited this cafe and had a very pleasant experience. I’d especially like to highlight our waiter — incredibly positive, attentive, and genuinely friendly. From the very beginning, he created a comfortable atmosphere, helped us with the menu, and was always available without ever being intrusive. You can really tell he enjoys his job and knows how to treat guests well — which is quite rare. The service overall was excellent: fast, smooth, and always with a smile. It’s people like this who make a restaurant visit truly memorable.

What a lovely little gem. This Viennese cafe was full of character, with great service and food. We especially enjoyed the apple strudel with vanilla sauce. It was quite busy with lots of locals, we were fortunate to get a table without booking. An easy walk from the Belvedere, definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

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.

If I only I could give 0 stars for service. Made a reservation as I read many good reviews. Was seated immediately upon arrival. The shop is an L shape, and after being seated for 10-15min in the corner, no one walked over to my seat. Had to walk over to get my order. Lady server was saying she forgot about me. After waiting 15min, my order didn’t arrive (mind you it’s just 3 cakes). When I tried to call the guy server, he deliberately avoided all eye contact even after seeing me call for him. Then when I walked over, he was annoyed and said “i didn’t take your order, you ask her” and continued talking with his regular customer. Cakes were good, but not the apfelstrudel (if I waited 15min I expected it to be served warm, but it was cold). Because of the horrendous service, I don’t even intend to come back to try their breakfast tomorrow and will NEVER recommend anyone to come here to get their day spoilt by these inattentive and rude waiters. They still had the audacious to ask for tips. 0 tips for u. You may look into the servers who were on shift for dinner 14 May 2026.
