Cafe Central is counted among Vienna's three major cafes and serves coffee and desserts such as melange and Sachertorte in central Vienna. It also offers meal dishes including schnitzel and Tafelspitz, and piano music plays among the old-fashioned columns. Entry is possible without waiting around 8 in the morning, reservations are seated immediately, and desserts can be ordered for takeout. Visiting without a reservation can mean a wait of about 30 minutes to an hour.
