Useful tips

  • If the wait for seats is long, switching to takeaway desserts is another option.
  • It is well placed between Hofburg and a walk along Graben.
  • When planning your day, you may worry that waiting for a cafe table will push back palace visit times. Since the official guidance says reservations are not accepted, leave some buffer around your Hofburg plans.
  • Since it fits naturally into a Kohlmarkt shopping route, choosing first between a dessert break and gift shopping will make the decision faster than planning it as a long meal.

Frequently asked questions

Should I make a reservation before going?

The official site says cafe reservations are not accepted. If you want a table, plan for a possible wait; if time is tight, it is more realistic to switch to buying in-store products or takeaway.

What else is there to see besides desserts?

The official introduction describes Demel as a place of Viennese confectionery culture dating back to 1786, with cakes, chocolates, and Austrian specialties also presented. It works well as both a cafe stop and a shopping stop.
