    Café Grüner Salon is a wonderful and charming little cafe in Vienna - I absolutely would highly recommend this cafe if you are looking for a good place for breakfast/brunch! We came here for breakfast a little while ago and received excellent service, amazing food, and best of all: everything was gluten-free! In a city where there are surprisingly not many good gluten-free options, this place is a blessing. We got a whole 2-person shareable breakfast platter alongside some cheesecake (a vegan one and a non-vegan one, forest berry and blueberry - both excellent), some juices and coffee and more. We loved everything and only wish we got more amazing things to try! We unfortunately don’t live in Vienna, as if we did, we would come here all the time. If you’re in the city, don’t miss the opportunity - try Café Grüner Salon as soon as you can!!

    Food is amazing! Top quality and absolutely delicious. Everything is gluten free so if you are coeliac this is the place to eat in Vienna. The atmosphere is fabulous and cozy and it’s always busy because it’s so wonderful. Also, big thanks to the lovely waiter who treated us like family!

    Nice place. Very friendly staff. They sat us down even with no reservation. We had a set menu with scrambled eggs, fruit salad, hummus, orange juice and some bread. It tasted good but nothing special, and I didn’t go crazy for the presentation. Good selling point was everything was gluten free. Bad selling point was charging us for each extra slice of bread we requested. Overall it felt quite pricey.

    Highly recommended! This place is awesome, I couldn't fault it. Everything on the menu is gluten-free. We had the Grüner Salon Frühstück and the Marquesa Altamira dish. Portions were very generous and the food was excellent. The staff was super nice and the atmosphere is so cosy. It's a typical café with lot of character (there was also a gramophone). Loved it with all my heart!

    Such a beautiful, cute GF cafe! Wonderful service by the waiter, and the food was just great. A little pricey which is to be expected with GF food, but really worth it.

    I found finding good GF food in Vienna difficult until I ate here. I was in need of a good breakfast and I was not disappointed. I had their version of avocado toast with a fried egg and salad for breakfast. It was definitely different but tasty. The juice was fresh and the coffee yum. My service was amazing! He recommended the cherry cheesecake and it was out of this world delicious. I went back the next day for more cherry cheesecake but understandably they were out of it cause why not, it was beyond yum. I decided to take two pieces of the apricot cheesecake and while it was yum, it was no match for the cherry cheesecake. I shall dream of it until the next time I'm in Vienna.

    One of the coziest cafes in Vienna. Everything is nice, from the decoration to the dishes to the ambient music... The service is good and the food is delicious. Recommended even if you're not celiac, although those who can't have gluten will find it even more special, as everything is gluten free.

  • 5/5 Joshua S. 1 year ago on Google • 42 reviews
    Really delicious food and coffee, with an assortment of breakfasts available. Not the cheapest or quickest service, but the quality was excellent, and also good for vegetarians. The cafe is quite small so if you are a large group you may struggle to find seating or you will have to split up to different tables.

    The best place I’ve been to for brunch. I rarely take a picture of my food but this one was exceptional. Service was excellent and the atmosphere is beautiful.

  • 5/5 Andie P. 1 year ago on Google • 20 reviews
    A beautiful gluten free cafe with delicious cakes and breakfast. The atmosphere is so cozy and the cakes and coffee delicious. I loved that we could try traditional austrian cakes like Sachertorte and Linzer Torte in a gluten free version. Amazing for people with celiac disease! All in all my favorite cafe in Vienna!

    We stayed in Vienna for 2 nights and luckily found this little gem on the first morning there. The owner was so nice and friendly and thankfully spoke perfect English. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is great and the staff/owner is friendly. I’d give this place a 10 out of 5 if I could. If you are in Vienna it is absolutely worth the trip to cafe Gruner Salon, even if you aren’t coeliac

    Right around the corner of Gumpendorferstrasse and just a short walk off of popular shopping street Mariahilferstrasse you can find this little gem of a Coffee spot with the flair of an old traditional Viennese Kaffehaus! It feels like traveling back in time.☺️Very beautiful and thoughtful interior with a vast selection of amazing, high quality homemade, vegan, and 100% glutenfree breakfast / desserts as well as delicious coffee and tea. Everything we tried was so tasty! Definitely well worth the short walk! #cafegruenersalon #wien #mariahilf #vienna #vegan #100%glutenfree

  • 5/5 Michal B. 1 year ago on Google
    Hidden gem. One of the reasons to visit Wien again. Very enjoyable place. Food was great, especially home made breads. If I may one comment, I would redo the Sachr recept, the sugar toping was not tasty. But otherwise fantastic staff and great combinations in the menu.

    (Translated by Google) Lovingly and comfortably furnished small coffee house with friendly and very hard-working service. The map is small, but the attention to detail also shows there. The drinks come quickly, the breakfast takes a while, but is very fresh and of the highest quality. You like to wait and understand why. The gluten-free bread and pastries also taste excellent and are served warm. The cakes on offer (all gluten-free) taste excellent ... also for people who tolerate gluten well. Highly recommended! (Original) Liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtes kleines Kaffeehaus mit freundlicher und sehr bemühter Bedienung. Die Karte ist klein, aber auch da zeigt auch die Liebe zum Detail. Die Getränke kommen schnell , das Frühstück dauert etwas, ist aber ganz frisch und von höchster Qualität. Da wartet man gerne und versteht auch warum. Auch das glutenfreie Brot und Gebäck schmeckt ausgezeichnet und wird warm serviert. Die angebotenen Torten (alles glutenfrei) schmecken vorzüglich... auch für Menschen die Gluten gut vertragen. Absolut zu empfehlen!

    (Translated by Google) Breakfast is particularly noteworthy here. Prepared with love and very tasty. For in between there are many small dishes and above all a large cake counter. A paradise for vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free guests, but also meat tigers will find enough offers. The price is very high, but it is worth it. (Original) Das Frühstück ist hier ganz besonders hervor zu heben. Liebevoll zubereitet und sehr lecker. Für zwischendurch gibt es viele kleine Gerichte und vor allem eine große Kuchentheke. Ein Paradies für vegan, glutenfrei, laktosefrei lebende Gäste, wobei auch Fleischtiger genügend Angebote finden. Preislich sehr hoch, aber das ist es wert.

  • 4/5 Sandra W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Not only for people with food intolerance ;-) I looked for the restaurant for a breakfast with a friend, because I am currently avoiding a lot of food (dairy products, wheat, egg, hazelnut, soy, etc.), I got information online beforehand and the selection of the - also spicy - variations was great convinced (eg gluten-free bread, vegan and gluten-free cakes, vegetable milk, etc.). The bread is very tasty and light (although many "grains" processed), the breakfast with salmon and avocado tasted good, as did the vegan apple pie afterwards. The staff is very friendly and the decor is nice and cozy. Sometimes the service was a little too comfortable, but it didn't bother us. My girlfriend - who has no restrictions - was equally enthusiastic. We will be back ;-) (Original) Nicht nur für Personen mit Nahrungsmittelunverträglichkeiten ;-) Ich habe das Lokal für ein Frühstück mit einer Freundin rausgesucht, da ich derzeit viele Lebensmittel meiden (Milchprodukte, Weizen, Ei, Haselnuss, Soja usw.) sollte, habe ich mich vorab online informiert und die Auswahl der - auch pikanten - Variationen hat mich überzeugt (zb glutenfreies Brot, vegane und glutenfreie Kuchen, Pflanzenmilch usw). Das Brot ist sehr lecker und leicht (obwohl viele "Körner" verarbeitet), das Frühstück mit Lachs und Avocado hat geschmeckt, auch der vegane Apfelkuchen danach. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und die Einrichtung schön gemütlich und hübsch. Teilweise war der Service vielleicht ein wenig zu gemütlich, aber uns hat es nicht gestört. Auch meine Freundin - die keine Einschränkungen hat - war ebenso begeistert. Wir kommen wieder ;-)
