Tea time with a view. Lets go!



Too much cakes, too little time

And a gorgeous one. This is Cafe Gerstner with a different look and feel - yes, we'll get to this one in a bit. You will be welcomed with a wide selection of colourful and delicious looking cakes and pralines, and yes sparkling wines. A perfect heaven for the sweet tooth. And definitely a great way to start your journey into the city!



Even more cakes...




Stairway to heaven...

Climb upstairs for more! Yes, you can afford to climb for what you're about to bite into is a chunk of sinful sweetness. After all, Vienna is probably sugar capital of central Europe. Or Europe. Oh well.


Hmmm, decisions, decisions...


And they all look too pretty to be eaten...

And the view is fabulous. Try to grab one by the window because you'd be looking out to the gorgeous majestic state opera. Music is in the air, cakes and chocolates are dancing on your tastebuds - sounds like a perfect day, doesn't it?

And gentlemen, this is how, you keep your lady happy! And potentially shop lesser too... distract them with sweets!!


A sweet little raspberry tart.


For the non-sweet tooth, how about shrimps?

Our only comment about this place is about the look and feel. Their previous colours were dark blue themed against dark wood and a bit of gold, if at all noticeable. Now, the interior is in light green and gold - uncannily similar to the French Laduree.

About Gertsner

Founded in 1847, Gerstner is probably a household name when it comes to quality pastry. They served the imperial court in 1873 and today, has a few outlets and a culinary school too. This is however, the only outlet with the majestic view.

  • Ambience : 3.5 / 5, the entry level looks exactly like Laduree at Champs Elysee
  • Location : 5 / 5
  • Food : 2.5 / 5, everything looks yummy and they have spent a lot of time on the decoration of the food. Unfortunately though they have not spent as much time on the perfecting the taste and balance of cakes
