I thought that those travelling to Vienna might be interested in this article published by one of my fellow expats. The article highlights 5 local favorites for coffee.

Shake it up a little as there are more coffeehouses in Vienna than those in the First District.
I agree with this list.
Most tourists are looking for:
(1) best coffee
(2) best coffehouse (i.e. most authentic)
(3) best pastries and cakes
These are three different issues which do not go along with each other necessarily.
I have a favorite for each category, but I do not know a place which is top in all three.
