    What a gem! I found this place pretty last minute and was worried they wouldn't serve us since it was ~20mins before closing, but they were so nice! There were a handful of tables still hanging out as well and they didn't rush anyone to leave. This place has high quality coffee and their staff is very knowledgeable. We were only planning on getting the einspanner but ended up getting a drip as well. Both were very good. It's also a block away from all the peak toursity things so that is another plus! :) Would highly recommend

    If you're looking for high quality coffee, this is the place to go, free from the tourists in Old Town. I enjoyed a cappuccino on multiple occasions and my husband enjoyed his hand filtered coffee. The barista was very friendly and knowledgable.

    I was looking for a good coffee shop in Salzburg where I could sit in a comfortable chair, enjoy a delicious coffee and read a book. I was happy to discover Kaffee Alchemie early in my Salzburg stay as it became a routine stop on my daily adventures. The barista's coffee recommendations were "spot-on" as were the assortment of baked goods. I'd go back to Salzburg just to visit Kaffee Alchemie again.

    The owner here knows a lot of coffee and uses some of the best beans in Europe. The hand brew coffee is really good here and the pastries are amazing as well.

    My friends and I stopped in while we were in Salzburg for the day-- seriously, one of the best coffee shops we went to while traveling through Germany/Austria/Switzerland. They were very knowledgeable in the coffee industry and the staff was super accommodating! A must visit for every coffee lover

    This is a very small, cute coffee house. It has the feel of sitting in someones kitchen as there are only 5 or 6 places to sit and the place is full of coffee related articles. The coffee was great here too and the cakes and desserts looked divine. All the crockery is slightly different and it really feels like a family run coffee house. The only downside is that there is no toilet so after one or two cups you need to get moving.

    Best coffee in Salzburg.

    This is the best coffee in Salzburg. They offer a variety of brewing methods, like pourover or aeropress. I had the Kenya coffee which was delightful. Not too sweet or acidic. My wife has the panama which was a bit more acidic. Atmosphere is delightful, but very small. Wifi is free but this is not an Internet cafe. They don't have the space. In fact the password is literally "25_minutes_surfing_only" or something like that. Ask when you get there. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. We've seen a lot of coffee shops here that are all pretty much the same pedestrian variety. This is the only coffee I would actually recommend. Still looking for a good bakery here. Seriously, they all kind of suck compared to the bakeries in Zürich.

    Fabulous. Best coffee of our entire trip through Austria and Germany. Staff is clearly super passionate about coffee, great stuff here. Returned twice during our stay in Salzburg, spent a lovely several hours lingering and reading in the cozy nook, watching horse-drawn carriages go by along the river.

    Cafe Habakuk - The Strudel was divine!

    First morning in Salzburg and we were looking for our first breakfast kind of like home. We walked…read morepast Habakuk and caught a glimpse of the Strudel in the window, and all thoughts of bacon and eggs were out the window! We walked in and were very warmly greeted, and sat right across from the glass cases that showcased their wares. Given two menus in German, we figured it out pretty quick. They had a NY breakfast and one below that outlined eggs, ham, cheese and bread, bingo, two orders of those please and water. Our utensils and napkins were brought on a white plate along with salt and pepper, as well as a silver plate holding our waters, which was a great touch. The interior is very classy, old school elegance, and the servers were the same, nicely dressed very polite and helpful. Our food arrived quickly, hot and abundant, not exactly bacon and eggs, but very good. We were not asked how we wanted our eggs cooked,, so what you see is what you get. My eggs were a little overcooked for my taste, but the lovely K got some yolk run. There was a very good amount of food for the price and it all worked well together. We had the chance to chat with our server who spoke very good English, as it seems most of the people we have come across in our two weeks on the Continent do. We had to go back the next afternoon to try the Strudel of course. We were recognized right away, and the place was quite a bit busier so we walked up the stairs and were sat in the main dining area. The Strudel was quite delicious, and once again abundant and swimming in warm custard, which I wasn't sure of, but man it was good. Also added a Stiegel beer which is brewed right here in Salzburg for over 500 years. Cafe Habakuk is a bit of a throwback to simpler times when good service and great food, at fair prices was the norm rather than the exception and we couldn't be happier. Our next trip back to Salzburg we will most certainly be back!

    My friend and I were wandering around the area trying to choose a cafe. We stumbled upon this one,…read morewhich had such enticing apple strudel and cookies on their display windows. We decided to walk inside on a mission to try said apple strudel and were greeted by kind staff. We took a seat and had THE loveliest waiter. I got the apple strudel with custard, but you get the option of either whipped cream, custard, or icecream I believe. My friend got the ham & cheese sandwich with a side salad. Long story short, the apple strudel was DIVINE. The entire dessert just feels homey and hits all the right spots. The sandwich was really good too. The bread was quite buttery and crispy. The salad had thousand island dressing. So so good!
