Pony Karussell Café
Pony Karussell Café – A Whimsical Breakfast Moment in Vienna
There are places you visit for the food. And then there are places you remember because they transport you.
Pony Karussell Café in Vienna is one of those rare spaces — where design, nostalgia, and imagination blend into something quietly magical.
Tucked away at Vienna’s famous Prater, this café feels less like a coffee stop and more like stepping inside a dream.
The space is inspired by vintage carousels, with playful shapes, golden accents, and a joyful mix of colours that recall childhood memories without ever feeling cliché.
Blush pink, lemon yellow, soft turquoise — the colour palette alone is enough to lift your mood topped by the beautiful singing of birds.
But it’s the details that really stay with you.
The tables are set with Pip Studio Amsterdam pieces — a surprising mix of delicate porcelain and wooden textures that brings warmth, charm, and contrast.
Each plate and cup features soft pastel birds and florals like little keepsakes from another time.
This contrast, between whimsical and grounded, creates a space that feels both dreamy and rooted in craft.
There’s a softness in the atmosphere. Even in a city as rich in culture and history as Vienna, this café stands out as a space that invites you to pause,
to sit and enjoy – to breathe in the creativity around you.
The bird sounds are gentle, the service unhurried. It’s the kind of place where you’ll want to stay longer than you planned, just to let your thoughts wander.
Whether you’re travelling solo or meeting a friend, whether it’s a planned stop or a spontaneous discovery, the Pony Karussell Café is one of those places that gives you something: a mood, a memory, a sense of delight.
My Avyness Tipp:
Find a seat by the window, order something sweet, and simply soak it all in and don’t forget to look up — the ceiling is part of the story.
