Special Breakfast Places

Vienna has to offer some of the best breakfast and brunching places and going to brunch on a Sunday morning in Vienna is almost as much of a tradition as grumpy waiters.

From Grandmothers bringing you breakfast in their “public living room”, to a bistro with an emphasis on organic, homegrown, handmade pastries and bread, to a hotel-café-lounge hybrid urban hotspot with an international flair – here are some of our favorite spots to enjoy breakfast around Vienna.

Vollpension

As the name (Engl. full board but also meaning pension) might suggest, the main idea being the Café is that grandmas are the best at baking. Everyone can see the appeal of having doting grandma care and bake for you and that is exactly what makes this Café so special. The interior design is made to feel like you are sitting in grandma’s living room and the actual senior citizens working there add a flair of familiarity that makes you feel right at home. Brunching at Vollpension is a joy with a diverse menu that combines rustic and traditional breakfast elements with out-of-the-box and vegan/vegetarian options. Vollpension is unique in that you pay for your time there instead of specific meals and you can eat as much of the type of breakfast you chose as you like (just like at grandma’s house). Their unique selling point of a granny-themed Café isn’t only popular with its customers, it also has a positive social impact supporting senior citizens during their pension. With two locations in Vienna, backing courses by granny’s and a shop, Vollpension has a lot to offer and we couldn’t love it more!
