Brunch in Vienna spans the grand dining room, the bakery cafe and the market stall. Steirereck im Stadtpark in Landstrasse sets the upscale end, while Ulrich and Glacis Beisl in Neubau and Cafe Korb in the Innere Stadt offer the relaxed late-morning table. Near the Naschmarkt in Mariahilf, Neni and Phil add a Mediterranean-leaning spread.
Heinz Reitbauer's Steirereck took its third Michelin star in 2025, cooking Styrian terroir from the family farm in Pogusch inside a mirrored glass pavilion.
OrderThe full evening tasting; the wax-roast char from Reitbauer's own water is the canonical course.
TipThe ground-floor Meierei in Stadtpark serves the same kitchen's breakfast and a 180-cheese trolley without the wait list.
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.
OrderWeekend brunch board with house granola, soft-boiled eggs and Spittelberg sourdough toast.
TipBook the leafy Sankt-Ulrichs-Platz terrace for weekend brunch; the room inside is calmer mid-week.
Joseph Brot's Landstrasse cafe in Vienna runs all-day breakfast and a serious sourdough-led brunch carte, the bakery's Waldviertel heritage grains.
OrderCinnamon pulled bread with house jam, and a flat white from the bar.
TipOpen weekday mornings only; the cinnamon Pulled Bread sells out by mid-morning, get there before 10:00.
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.
OrderThe Apfelstrudel and a Melange, finished with a small Pfiff beer.
TipThe basement bowling alley still runs on Saturday nights; reserve a lane two weeks ahead for the brunch-and-game combo.
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.
OrderSabich with fried aubergine, egg and hummus; weekend brunch adds shakshuka.
TipSundays the Naschmarkt stalls close but Neni stays open; the cafe is the only Naschmarkt option that day.
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.
OrderBreakfast plate with cheese from the 150-strong cheese cart, plus a Melange on the terrace.
TipClosed Sundays; Saturday morning is the room's busiest slot for the brunch carte and cheese trolley.
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.
OrderAvocado toast on Joseph Brot sourdough, plus a cortado.
TipThe aperitivo crowd takes over from 17:00; the morning brunch slot fills by 10:30 on Sundays.
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.
OrderWiener Schnitzel from the lunch carte, with a Pfiff of Gemischter Satz.
TipThe walled garden under the old walnut trees is the room's best seat; book ahead for warm-weather weekends.
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.
OrderShakshuka with feta and warm pita; the falafel plate is the lunch alternative.
TipThe market stand opens earlier than the inside cafe; eat shakshuka outside on weekend mornings.
Phil on Gumpendorfer Strasse in Vienna runs an all-day cafe-bookshop brunch carte, the secondhand sofas and shelves of books for sale a calm 6th-district.
OrderSourdough toast with house spread and a cortado, with a book from the shelf alongside.
TipThe books and records on the shelves are for sale; pay at the front counter when you settle the tab.
Demel on Kohlmarkt serves Konditorei brunch around the pastry-kitchen window, the K. und K. Hofzuckerbaecker counter the most photographed morning stop.
OrderSachertorte with whipped cream and a Melange.
TipThe first-floor dining room takes the queue; the ground-floor takeaway moves faster for a Sachertorte to-go.
Cafe Frauenhuber on Himmelpfortgasse runs Vienna's oldest coffee-house brunch in the room where Mozart and Beethoven performed, Frühstück until noon.
OrderWiener breakfast with Marillenmarmelade and a Melange.
