10 brunch worth the trip across Austria, editor-ranked by TableJourney. All Austria guides.
Joseph Brot Landstrasse ★ 4.5 · Vienna
landstrasse · Landstrasser Hauptstrasse 4, 1030 Wien
Joseph Brot's Landstrasse cafe in Vienna runs all-day breakfast and a serious sourdough-led brunch carte, the bakery's Waldviertel heritage grains the foundation of every plate.
Tip: Open weekday mornings only; the cinnamon Pulled Bread sells out by mid-morning, get there before 10:00.
Meierei im Stadtpark ★ 4.5 · Vienna
landstrasse · Am Heumarkt 2A, 1030 Wien
Meierei im Stadtpark on Am Heumarkt next to Steirereck in Vienna's Stadtpark runs the Reitbauer team's all-day cafe and brunch, the room famed for its 150-cheese cart and the Stadtpark-facing terrace as the summer breakfast seat.
Tip: Closed Sundays; Saturday morning is the room's busiest slot for the brunch carte and cheese trolley.
Ulrich ★ 4.4 · Vienna
neubau · Sankt-Ulrichs-Platz 1, 1070 Wien
Ulrich on Sankt-Ulrichs-Platz in Vienna's Neubau runs a serious weekend brunch with house granola, eggs and Spittelberg sourdough, the leafy 7th-district square the best summer terrace.
Tip: Book the leafy Sankt-Ulrichs-Platz terrace for weekend brunch; the room inside is calmer mid-week.
Neni am Naschmarkt brunch ★ 4.4 · Vienna
mariahilf · Naschmarkt 510, 1060 Wien
Neni am Naschmarkt at Stand 510 in Vienna runs a Saturday-Sunday Israeli-Levantine brunch from Haya Molcho's kitchen, the upstairs dining room and downstairs bar both filling by 10:00.
Tip: Sundays the Naschmarkt stalls close but Neni stays open; the cafe is the only Naschmarkt option that day.
Demel breakfast and brunch ★ 4.4 · Vienna
innere-stadt · Kohlmarkt 14, 1010 Wien
Demel on Kohlmarkt in Vienna serves Konditorei brunch around the working pastry-kitchen window, the K. und K. Hofzuckerbaecker the most-photographed morning room in the 1010 postcode.
Tip: The first-floor dining room takes the queue; the ground-floor takeaway moves faster for a Sachertorte to-go.
Balthasar Kaffee Bar brunch ★ 4.3 · Vienna
leopoldstadt · Praterstrasse 38, 1020 Wien
Balthasar Kaffee Bar on Praterstrasse in Vienna's Leopoldstadt runs a small all-day brunch carte off the specialty coffee bar, the marble counter the 2nd district's quietest weekend brunch.

Glacis Beisl ★ 4.3 · Vienna
neubau · Breite Gasse 4, 1070 Wien
Glacis Beisl inside the MuseumsQuartier on Breite Gasse in Vienna runs a strong weekend brunch carte in the walnut-shaded back garden, the 7th-district room's seasonal-only outdoor seating.

innere-stadt · Brandstaette 9, 1010 Wien
Cafe Korb on Brandstaette in Vienna's first district runs a weekend coffee-house brunch with the 1960s artist-cluttered room intact, the Strudel and Melange the canonical Viennese morning.

mariahilf · Naschmarkt 672, 1060 Wien
Tewa at Stand 672 on Vienna's Naschmarkt runs an organic vegetarian brunch from 09:00, the Levantine-leaning carte and the market-side terrace one of the city's calmest weekend brunch spots.
