Megan JenningsOctober 21, 2016Sacher-Torte was nice, but drier than I imagined, but I'd never had it before so I'm no expert! Service was very friendly and efficient, atmosphere was calm and cosy. I'd definitely go back again.
Upvote32DownvoteUpvoted Feb 2- Artyom FedosovJuly 28, 2016Original Sachertorte is a loud brand, but actually it's not something really special: dessert here wasn't much better than one we bought at the airport.Upvote64DownvoteUpvoted Feb 11
ViennaInfoMarch 8, 2012Enjoy the authentic Viennese coffee house atmosphere with a slice of original Sachertorte and a cup of Sacher coffee. A magnificent winter garden frames uninterrupted views of the State Opera House. Read more

Fluying ✅December 31, 2016If the line is too long try the Sacher Stube adherent to the original cafe. Same cake, same pricey prices and also a very elegant ambience. Service is very good.Upvote5Downvote- Kyriakos G. 🍺 🍔May 6, 2016Maybe the most authentic coffee place in Vienna. Start with an Einspänner, try the Apfelstrudel and definitely the Sacher Torte mit Schlagobers. Just perfect!

Anja Z.July 14, 2017The Sachertorte here is the original, but in Slovenia, which was also part of the Austro-Hungarian empire, we use an improved recipe, which makes the cake juicier and the chocolate layer thicker :)Upvote1Downvote
Lidiia IulinaAugust 23, 2016Amazing Sacher cake! Good coffee, vienna melange - must try! You are likely to wait to be seated there, but be sure, further - pleasure only;)

DanielaAugust 29, 2017The original Sacher Torte is my long-term favourite, especially combined with the Sacher Mischung tea. The service is always friendly and helpful. Also the café is very pleasant, but a bit crowded.

Nini KobakhidzeDecember 8, 2017The cafe is really good, nice design, calm and nice. As for Sachertorte which is acclaimed to be the best here (it was first time I tasted it), I did not like at allUpvote1Downvote
Marc KaiserJanuary 20, 2017As always, we had a great time at Sacher. Friendly service, good pastry and an ambience that really is something different. When in Vienna, a must visit location.

Serhii LutskoJuly 4, 2017This is the cafe where the Sachertorte was invented and first served. Definitely worth to visit since the prices are average. Better to visit in the evening (I would say after 9 PM) to avoid lines

Iulia AndreeaMay 3, 2019The Austrian quality is an example for the rest of the world!! A very special place that people stay in line to get into. Remarkable place with very good coffee & a slice of the famous sachertorte!UpvoteDownvote
Jo-Ann LimOctober 17, 2018Definitely worth trying the original Sacher torte. Had the Maria-Theresia kaffee. Lovely and cosy ambience and good service. Don’t be put off by the queue as it moves quickly.UpvoteDownvote
Bianca EderOctober 21, 2017Yes its cliché, yes its ridiculously expensive but the cake is fantastic and you pay for the brand experience and you get that. And quality , worth it

Priscila de AlcântaraMarch 26, 2018Beautiful place, definitely worth waiting in line. The sacher is surprisingly "ok" but the apple strudel is delicious. Coffee is also great.

Stasya SatyaNovember 17, 2018Absolutely stunning central location with the most fresh baked Sacher. Love the apricot aftertaste
Upvote1Downvote- Rene T.August 17, 2018Good coffee ("Verlängerter"), from my point of view the "Sacher Torte" here is better than in "Café Demel".

Mario BJuly 25, 2016Genuinely Viennese. Get the one and only, but don't queue at the main entrance, you'll find a great spot entering from the side without waiting.

Sachertorte. A classic. In Vienna only. This is old Vienna and Vienna that is talked about. Best cakes in town. Not only classics like Sachertorte and Apfelstrudel, but a whole variety of tasty cakes.Upvote5Downvote
KristynaJune 22, 2016Great Sacher cake but the price is over the line ....u should visit, but once is enoughUpvote2Downvote
John BarnhamOctober 21, 2016World famous for chocolate cake, hence the queues and cramped seating. It's a nice cake, it's drier than I like, but it still feels a treat.UpvoteDownvote
Taylan EsenJanuary 31, 2015Best combination, is the Original Sacher Punschdesert, the one with rum inside, and black coffee, to keep the taste of tarteUpvote1Downvote

EdelynNovember 29, 2015Almost everyone here is a tourist. Get the Sacher torte with whipped cream and have it with eispanner (coffee). Sit by the window and watch the world go by.UpvoteDownvote
Mateusz KrólAugust 15, 2016The unique Sacher cake, very good and not comparable to anything else, and one of the best coffee, it's worth of that money ;-)Upvote1Downvote
Canan CmDnzFebruary 9, 2016Sacher cake is so sweet that I cannot eat it all alone! Just ask for a Sacherwürfel which is smaller version of the original cake. You can get it with or without alcohol.UpvoteDownvote
James GloverJune 2, 2018There’s a recently develop section of the hotel called Sacher Eck‘ meaning corner. Here’s there’s two cosy floors for your cake and coffee as well as a takeaway section.
UpvoteDownvote- Robert BornAugust 19, 2014Sachertorte is a must - this is the place to taste in Wien, since it originated here! Try also the other typical desserts - it's a bit expensive but worth it.UpvoteDownvote
Ara JzdAugust 17, 2016Try Maria Theresia kaffee ! Tastes so different from the other coffees that I've tried before .

TABAugust 22, 2015One of the most famous café in Vienna ... must visit and try the coffee with so desert. ..Upvote6Downvote
Keagan van ZylJuly 25, 2019It has become a business that now relies on its brand rather than its product. It is a machine-made, dry and tasteless cake, served by staff who look worn out. You can find better in the supermarket.Upvote2Downvote

Alex ChiritescuNovember 27, 2016The main attraction is the original Sacher cake which is only sold at 2 locations. I wasn't blown away by it, it is quite sweet, but it has a pleasant flavor.UpvoteDownvote
