5THWAVE - The Business of Coffee and Hospitality24 Helmi

Viennese coffee culture past and present

In today’s episode, we explore Vienna’s fascinating and distinct coffee culture – from the grand 19th-century coffee houses that shaped the city’s intellectual life to the specialty scene redefining coffee today.

What is the lasting legacy of Vienna’s historic coffee houses? How do heritage and modernity coexist in Vienna? And how has specialty coffee carved out its place within the city's deeply rooted café tradition?

We’ll hear from Art Historian Jamie Reurs, Johanna Parker (née Wechselberger), Founder of The Vienna School of Coffee and Philip Feyer Founder, of Jonas Reindl Coffee Roasters.

Credits music: "Miraculous Wonders" by Akeira Jade in association with The Coffee Music Project and SEB Collective. Tune into the 5THWAVE Playlist on Spotify for more music from the show

To The Coffee House by Peter Altenberg
If you have troubles of one sort or another – to the coffee house
She can't come to you for some reason, no matter how plausible – to the coffee house
You have holes in your shoes – the coffee house
You have a salary of 400 crowns and spend 500 – the coffee house
You are frugal and permit yourself nothing – the coffee house
You find no woman who suits you – the coffee house
You hate and disdain people and yet you cannot do without them – go to the coffee house
Nobody extends you any more credit anywhere – the coffee house
