Tip: The Mittagsmenue is among the city's best-value parliamentary-quarter lunches; the back room is the quietest seat.
Address: Josefstaedter Strasse 2, 1080 Wien, Vienna
Cafe Mozart on Albertinaplatz sits between the Albertina and the Opera, an 1855-founded coffee house with terrace seats facing the museum facade.
Signature drink: Mozart-Torte and Melange
Tip: The terrace under the chestnut trees is the headline seat in summer; book the inside parlour ahead for the Sacher-Torte on the marble counter.
Cafe Diglas on Wollzeile has worn its 1934-era plush, brass and red-velvet since the Lehar years, the Konditorei counter the room's headline draw.
Signature drink: Diglas-Schnitte
Tip: The piano on the back wall is played weekend afternoons; the cake counter is the takeaway shortcut.
Cafe Diglas im Schottenstift on Schottengasse sits inside the Benedictine abbey's vaulted ground floor since 1888, the cloistered garden a quiet terrace.
Signature drink: Diglas-Torte and a Verlaengerter
Tip: The abbey courtyard tables fill on warm Sundays; the vaulted main room takes business meetings.
Aida on Singerstrasse off Stephansplatz is the pink-tiled flagship of the 1913-founded Konditorei chain, the upstairs window a cheap cathedral-view stop.
Signature drink: Punsch-Krapfen and Brauner
Tip: The upstairs counter is takeaway-fast; the inside parlour seats the wait if you want the Konditorei trolley.
Cafe Goldegg on Argentinierstrasse in Wieden opened in 1910, the carved parlour and brass billiard tables a working-class antidote to inner-city cafes.
Signature drink: Verlaengerter
Tip: Billiard tables on the back wall are bookable by the hour; the daily Mittagsmenue is a Wieden insider's lunch.
Cafe Tirolerhof on Fuehrichgasse in Vienna's first district has poured Melange since the Kunz brothers took over in 1918, the Art Deco interior restored.
Signature drink: Melange
Tip: Open daily from 07:00, weekends from 08:00; the house-made apple strudel is the long-standing order.
