Café Tomaselli, Historical coffee house in Old Town, Salzburg, Austria
Café Tomaselli is a historical coffee house in Salzburg's Old Town featuring wood paneling with inlays, marble tables, and silver service trays throughout its intimate interior spaces. The venue accommodates approximately 255 guests across its various rooms and levels.
The establishment was founded in 1700 as Cafegewölb Fontaine by Johann Fontaine and relocated to Alter Markt in 1764 under Anton Staiger's direction. This location has served as its permanent home ever since.
The space reflects a traditional coffee house style with waiters in formal jackets and staff members offering pastries from silver trays to seated guests. This approach to service has been part of the experience here for centuries.
The café is located at Alter Markt in the heart of Salzburg's Old Town, making it easy to reach during a walk through the historic center. The interior layout allows visitors to move through the space comfortably and find seating in whichever area appeals to them.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a regular patron of this coffee house during his time in Salzburg, particularly drawn to the almond milk served here. Modern visitors now enjoy an array of coffee preparations that reflect how the beverage offerings have evolved.
