Café Korb – Vienna’s best Apfelstrudel

Café Korb is famous for four things: its grand, grand opening bash, late nights filled with psychoanalytical debates, being a favourite café amongst Nobel Prize winners, and its legendary home-made Apfelstrudel. Flaky, fruity and spiced to perfection, the generous slab you’ll get here of apple wrapped in pastry won’t last long on your plate.

The other famous thing about Cafe Korb is its owner whose portrait you can see up on the wall – Susanne Widl. Lad Widl has lived many lives as an actress, model, and coffeehouse owner. A true one-of-a-kind personality. For its opening in 1904, none other than the emperor himself, Franz Joseph I, turned up and kicked out some moves on the dance floor (ok, maybe he just showed up).
