Café Florianihof

One of the historic coffeehouses in Vienna, Cafe Florianihof was recently resurrected from the dead by a young team also in charge of Reznicek. They’ve retained the look and feel of the wonderfully bright space – the coffee is still dark-roasted – but the kitchen has experienced an empathic upgrade. Delicious weekday lunch specials and a wine list heavy on natural wines complement the coffeehouse classics. The crowd, both young and old, is distinctly bourgeoise  – this is the elegant, old-money District 8, after all.
