Cafe Diglas im Schottenstift, Traditional café in Innere Stadt, Austria
Cafe Diglas im Schottenstift is a café located within a historic building in Vienna's Innere Stadt district. It features several indoor areas alongside an outdoor garden terrace, providing spaces suited for different times of year and various activities.
This establishment has operated as a coffee house for many years within Vienna's café tradition and came under Diglas family management in 2016. That transition represents a continuation of longstanding operations under new ownership while maintaining the house's identity.
The space carries on Vienna's coffee house tradition as a social gathering spot where regulars and visitors share tables and time. This role as a casual meeting place reflects how Viennese cafés function as extensions of everyday life rather than formal dining establishments.
The café sits within a historic building complex with both covered and open-air seating areas, allowing you to choose based on weather and mood. Staff provides table service and can accommodate larger gatherings comfortably.
A pianist performs regularly in the space while guests work or spend time there, blending live classical music with everyday café functions. This combination gives the place a character that goes beyond typical coffee house operations.
