    Cappuccino in a cone? Love this cool concept but probably the most expensive coffee in Vienna. Coffee was light but nothing special imo. Service was friendly. It's a window coffee and there is no place to sit down so you would need to finish your coffee as soon as possible or you will waste your €12.

    This is a hole in the wall coffee place in Vienna. We stopped by because we saw their waffle cone coffee on Google. I ordered an iced espresso caramel macchiato which was delicious. My boyfriend got their waffle cone coffee, it was good but very expensive for the amount of coffee you get. It was 11€! The amount of coffee inside the waffle cone was the size of a small. It you want a unique experience try their coffee in waffle cone just beware of the price. Overall it's a great place to get coffee and support a local business.

    I saw this place on IG and had to get a coffee in a cone! Since the coffee shop is not on a main street, there was no queue (rare for a December day in Vienna). They have a full line of coffees, but their signature is the latte in a cone. The coffee was great! It melts the chocolate that coats the cone, which enhances the flavor. The staff was friendly and fluent in English. The main con is that the cone is a bit pricey for what you get. Also, the experience is cool but becomes cumbersome quickly as biting too much from the cone can spill the coffee. I would still recommend it if you are a coffee lover :)

    We were looking for something different for coffee and we were luckily just a 2 min away from this cafe! It's such an awesome spot. You will order through the window and take out. It's quick and easy. The service here was so great. They were very sweet and recommended different options on our taste. Since we were in the mood for coffee but something refreshing, they recommended the espresso tonic. This was very refreshing and strong. Then, we also ordered the affogato which was also strong but sweet with the icecream :). I do recommend visiting this spot for a cool and delicious coffee experience! Enjoy ;) -IG: travelfoodie_ishy

    It is quite simply, the best coffee I have ever had hands down. Stayed in Vienna for a week and came here every single day. The coffee is so smooth and flavorful and I got a different one every day I went. Even bought merch and two bags of coffee beans to take home. If you're staying in Vienna and don't come here for coffee, you're an idiot.

    Oh... oh my. I'm not sure I've ever been so smitten with a coffee shop in years. Between the menu, which combines third wave contemporary with fantastically unique starbucks style dessert coffees, to the very sweet woman who works there to the groundbreaking exposure to a latte in an ice cream cone, Fenster Cafe is everything. It works here in Vienna, it works at their location in Bratislava, and it could very, very easily work anywhere in the world especially in this instagram-age. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? Fenster cafe is just that, a tiny little window completely run by a single person. There's no seating and you might expect a line, so plan accordingly if the weather isn't ideal. From there, the service is efficient and friendly and completely embraces the aesthetics of their products. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? €5,50 got me a latte (I suppose a cappuccino really) in an ice cream cone lined with chocolate, and that's a solid price point just about anywhere. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? The internet tells me that the whole coffee in an ice cream cone had an Australia-driven moment in 2016 but more or less fizzled shortly after especially in the United States. While that may have been the case, I'm more than certain that the concept would catch fire today, and Fenster Cafe could well inspire that charge. This was perfect. It was the right amount of coffee in a cone lined with Chocolate that essentially made it a mild mocha, and the structure wasn't at all messy. There're not much more to say really - this was marvelous and I only wished that I could have sampled some of their other specialty beverages like the oreo latte or the salted caramel macchiatto. Two Stars. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Absolutely. Star.

    Latte in a cone

    The cone is definitely a little gimmicky but nonetheless a pretty good cup of latte. There is some chocolate on the inside of the cone to sweeten the coffee up a little bit as well.

    This review is specifically for the Kaiserschmarrn, which was unbelievable!…read more When you arrive at Demel, there are two areas - one is a window for quick takeout and the other is to be seated. We waited in the takeout line for about 15 minutes and ate the best Kaiserschmarrn ever! Something I didn't even know existed until visiting Vienna. Highly recommend checking out this spot!

    I visited Demel Vienna on August 19 during breakfast. I have always loved Demel from my previous…read morevisits, and I know it is a world-renowned and historic establishment, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. I ordered my usual Kaiserschmarrn and a drink. I had noticed that the table next to me had a drink that looked good, so when the waitress took my order, I specifically told her that I wanted the same drink the table next to me was having. When my order arrived, it was brought by a different waitress. The drink looked completely different from what I had pointed to, so I asked her what it was. She told me it was a double espresso. I explained that I had not ordered a double espresso and again pointed to the drink at the table next to me, which was clearly a hot chocolate. The waitress then called over the waitress who had originally taken my order. Instead of simply acknowledging that there had been a misunderstanding, she insisted, "That's what you ordered." When I explained again that it wasn't, she told me, "It's the same thing." A **double espresso and a hot chocolate are obviously not the same thing.** What bothered me even more than the incorrect order was the way both waitresses spoke to me. Their attitudes and tone were extremely rude, dismissive, and demeaning--as though I was stupid for pointing out the obvious mistake. The interaction became uncomfortable enough that people sitting at other tables were looking over at us. To make matters worse, my Kaiserschmarrn was **cold**. It tasted as though it had already been sitting out for some time before it was brought to my table. I understand that mistakes happen. Had they simply apologized for the misunderstanding and corrected the drink, I would not have had an issue. Instead, I was argued with and spoken down to over something that could have been resolved in seconds. This was genuinely one of the worst customer-service experiences I have ever had at a restaurant, and certainly not what I expected from an establishment with Demel's reputation. After several previous visits that I enjoyed, it is extremely disappointing to say that I will not return and will no longer recommend Demel to my friends.

Loved the decor, made me feel like we were transported back in time. Our waiter came, dressed in his formal clothing despite the heat outside, and took our order. For me, an espresso, for my wife, a chocolate cake and water. My coffee was delivered on a neat little tray with a glass of water to go along with it. The waiter then pretty much left us alone as we took our time eating and drinking. Pricewise, the cafe seemed similar to other coffee shops we had visited during our trip. So why not more stars? Largely because the food being offered isn't vegan friendly. Maybe that is due to tradition, fine I understand that if that's the case, but I've heard that there are other traditional cafes in Vienna that do have vegan options. Just give me one. That's all I'm asking.
