William HuxleyJanuary 29, 2017Great coffee, work-friendly environment, free wifi, more books than you could ever read. I could go on and on. Not only a must visit, but a place you'll become a regular of.
Matt BraggAugust 9, 2016Bookshop, lighting shop? :) No! It is just a brilliant coffee house with great coffee and brilliant knowledgable staff/cool people working here. Feel free to read a book and soak in the atmos.
Amanda BuzardMay 20, 2018Good place to read a book or study. There’s a steady stream of tourists and people trying to sell you things like ceramic bobblehead turtles and newspapers. Trendy music. A book/record store too.
- Amanda BethApril 10, 2017Really quirky and trendy atmosphere at Phil! A bookshop/music store/cafe/furniture store, and it even sometimes has live music. Highly recommended for a chill night with great vibes
Gonny Zwaag, van derSeptember 16, 2018This is a wonderful & hip coffee shop, breakfast café and book shop. Great to relax after/before shopping. Only complaint is that the service is very slow. We spent 2 hours there, just for breakfast.
Anne D.J.November 28, 2018Philgood Breakfast was great! A refreshing break from the usual Viennese sweets and pastries. It’s a coffee shop and a bookstore with a welcoming and relaxed vibe.
Rosie DukeJune 23, 2017I absolutely adore this Café. The staff are all really nice. And you can lounge around for ages. The coffee is great and they have a wonderful selection of books in the cafe! Very cool decor!
SvenjaSeptember 20, 2019A very welcoming vintage atmosphere. Books, retro furniture and coffee (also with non-diary milk) - everything one needs to have for a little break from everyday life.
Ahmad ZakariaMay 3, 2017Really cool place. I wish I got be back in school so I could study here. Great vibe, lots of books, amazing coffee. Not touristy. They also have breakfast but we didn't get a chance to try it.
Cha RabayaFebruary 21, 2017Take a book & read it while having coffee. Handle the book with care. The vibe of this cafe is excellent for friends that want to catch up. No wifi on weekends - talk to one another instead! ☕️
Andrian IlioSeptember 6, 2015My favorite coffee shop in Vienna. An abundance of books, quality beverages and happy vibes, make this place the ideal destination for chilling, self-reflecting and enjoying a good time with friends.
Marius TrovikApril 27, 2017One of my favorite places to sit down and relax in the whole world. Books, music, coffee, people watching. What more can you ask for. Highly recommend if you are in Vienna.
Arda AkcayJanuary 10, 2018I like the atmosphere so much. It’s the coziest place ever. You’ll love te books over there. Grab your coffee and enjoy.Upvoted Mar 16

Irina MikheevaNovember 3, 2016Amazing place for having a good coffee and reading whatever book you want from the shelves. Must visit!
Travel + LeisureApril 28, 2014If you’re looking for gifts, head to this hybrid book, vinyl, décor, and coffee shop in the sixth district; the music is excellent and there’s a wonderful selection of vintage furniture.
Joury IbrahimJuly 26, 2016Such a cute place. Great atmosphere and service. The coffee and breakfast were ok, nothing special but I would come again for the place!
Slynky CatOctober 19, 2014Great looking clean & inviting place. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon read or working. Recommend the Alpinophiles Früstuck and Kozel dark beer. A favourite ++
Ecem ÇeceNovember 4, 2016Coffee and homemade carrot cake were excellent! 😍 But, there is one point that I wanna tell something: Noise! I could not focus on my book because of noises. Also, finding place to sit was hard 🙁
Utkarsh SengarSeptember 6, 2016Nice place, very retro feel, highly recommend. If you are looking for a more traditional coffeehouse, go to cafe central or landtman.
Thomais PsarologouApril 27, 2019Go there if you need a boost of coffee or a quick bite!Really nice place with good music
John Hajjar DrikhaOctober 28, 2013This place is amazing. Great book collec. to just grab and read while you have coffee or Cho (hot chocolate. Had the Extra Dark). Wifi wasnt working and neither waiter wanted to do somthing about it.
Terēze VaivodeJanuary 17, 2016This place has it all - books, great breakfast in the mornings and nice music and g&t's during late evenings in Vienna
Jaryd CarolinMay 27, 2015A great atmosphere for enjoying a casual beer; relatively quiet so good for conversation. Savoury snacks are great healthy options which can be hard to come by in Vienna.
Val FabianJanuary 10, 2016Only tried brekki on the second day of our trip in Vienna. No wonder why it's got such a good reputation, staff is great, location is fantastic and food is excellent!
Radek CzemerysJanuary 4, 2016Best cafe I've ever been too. Amazing music, a lot of books you can read (also in English) and good food.
Paulo AndréOctober 8, 2019Very nice bookstore and cafe complete with tasteful background music. In a way, one of Vienna’s alternative staples.
MagdalenaOctober 24, 2014Although kitsch (typically not my style), this place is inspiring. With all these nooks and crannies to explore, I would be a regular if I lived in Vienna. Cappuccino is... good.
Marine SergentApril 14, 2016Awesome place with books music and movies ; food is good and furniture is cool ; great place to chill- Muffin ManJuly 24, 2019WHY THERE: desserts, brunch, interior. STUFF: nice. STAFF: friendly. LOCATION: close to mainstream (convenient). PRICES: average (reasonable)
Sarah SpillipsJanuary 25, 2015Cool find. Good book store and record store also. Great for breakfast or brunch and so cheap for portion size.
Why NoirFebruary 24, 2015Falafel with hummus and salad is great, big portion for about 8 euro. You can easily spend hours here, very cozy.
Sofia GalegoDecember 10, 2015Very trendy and cosy cafe. Also a book store and music store. Ideal for a cup of coffee in cold days 🌨📚🍰
Mathieu NickelsJanuary 7, 2015The typical hipster concept store coffeshop. Every furniture and deco is on sale, even the table and chair you're sitting on. There is also a libraryand very good cakes
