About

Café Hawelka in Vienna offers a quintessential Austrian experience in a classic and cozy setting. This historic café, lovingly operated by the same family for three generations, provides an inviting atmosphere where you can enjoy a diverse menu of Austrian and European delights. The café serves unique dishes like Sachertorte and the exclusive Mélange coffee, among other classic offerings such as cheese and bacon dishes, hearty soups, and an array of pastries.
