Fantastic with a great brunch - Edit
We came here for brunch on a Saturday morning and were really surprised with the variety and quality of all the dishes on offer. Options range from breakfast foods (bread with various spreads, muesli, yogurt etc...) to several international savory dishes (samosas, rice, spinach, hummus, soup etc...).
Read moreIt costs around €16 per person, so not the cheapest option, but Vienna isn't the cheapest city, and you can eat as much as you like.
The atmosphere was great and the staff are very friendly, helpful, and speak perfect English.
Would definitely come again if I found myself in Vienna again.
Pros: Delicious food, Lovely staff, Great atmosphere

Amazing food! - Edit
This place was a short distance from our hotel & what a find! The decor was cozy & eclectic, the menu was extensive with an international influence, the server spoke fluent English & the food was friggin' AWESOME! I had lentils with smoked tofu (the tofu tasted like bacon) , salad, and hummus with bread. Yum! Prices not bad.

Great! - Edit
Nice cozy cafe/restaurant. Lunch buffet was delicious. A bit pricey if you just want a snack but if you are really hungry, that's a very good deal. Stuff is friendly and helpful, speaks English. They take cards but don't accept Visa though, so prepare cash.

Good option if you're in the area - Edit
Harvest Cafe Bistrot offers a homey cafe atmosphere and tasty eats, with a focus on regional comfort food. There were several appealing vegan options, including snacks, meals, and desserts.

Service was warm and helpful.

brunch - Edit
You should be hungry if you go to the brunch, it costs 16.60 euro. I got a green tea which was not included, so I ended up paying north of 20 euro for a small plate of food and a bowl of fruit/vegan yogurt along with the tea. I also perceived the food (as is usually the case in buffet layouts, even vegan ones) to be not particularly healthy or tasty. That said, it's a vegan buffet and is probably a bargain if you're really hungry.

The buffet! - Edit
We had the weekend brunch buffet. Lots of delicious choices - vegan buffets are always a treat! I wasn't sure what I was eating, some of the time, but it was great knowing I didn't need to check ingredients, and everything was delicious. Make sure you book, as it's VERY popular!

super cozy with comfy food - Edit
Alternative interior mixed with good music and laid back atmosphere. On weekdays you can choose from the buffet (pay per plate / bowl) or from the limited menu. The food was good and well seasoned. Service was friendly.

So good - Edit
I went there for brunch on a Saturday, and I have to admit it was absolutely amazing ! For 17€, you have access to an all you can eat buffet of a selection of sweet and savory food, which I think is pretty good value. This is the kind of place you can go to with a meat eater, as they are bound to find something they will like out of all the options. The atmosphere is also pretty cozy I side, which is a plus. Would definitely recommend !

worth trying! - Edit
I had a Punschcake which was amazing. It was baked by Nomnom bakery. The brunch looked very tasty but I was not hungry enough to try. The price for the brunch is 16,80 euros which is not cheap.
Read moreThe place itself is very comfy and nice to sit down.
Pros: good variation for brunch
Cons: a bit expensive

Meh - Edit
No problem with the waiters and waitresses, however the food was quite unmemorable: some vegetable ghee with I don't remember what as a starter, a very standard veg stir-fry as a main course, and a pannacotta that could have been made by a 15-year-old... much like the rest of my food. All in all, ok but expensive for what you get. At least they don't call themselves a restaurant.

Brunch till you drop - Edit
I love their vegan brunch (everything is vegan there except for the cow's milk that you can choose for your coffee). You can just eat and eat and eat for hours... It's so good! They have cold and warm sweet and savoury stuff. Be sure to make a reservation, it's really crowded on brunch days.
Read moreNever go there otherwise though because it's a tad too expensive for my taste.
Pros: Really good brunch, Nice variation
Cons: A bit expensive, Serves cow's milk

All vegan as far as I could tell! - Edit
Set just off the main road Taborstrasse Harvest enjoys a spacious pavement area in front of the cafe with plants and seating for eating outside. It chose to rain when I visited. Inside is a mix of twee, old school veggie cafe and Viennanese kitsch. Sounds terrible But it's actually quite nice!
Read moreThe menu has English translations though I think their definition of fried tofu crumble is in fact scrambled tofu so beware mistranslations!
What we had was good and well done. The buffet is not by any means extensive in its choices but if you like the options it's a good quality deal. My comrade had the goulash and it was a meat and gravy feast, he also chose well with the tiramisu which despite cheating by using French toast as a base was delightfully light, flavoursome - rummmy and not too sweet or rich. I had a sugar free apple cake that was more like a succulent thick flapjack and I enjoyed it with some added cream.
They offer a full eat as much as you like buffet for 15.50 euros (about £12) but my guess is that the large plate option would be enough for most folks.
As with most cafes they bring the milk for your tea in silly small jugs more fitting for a dolls house than a two cup pot of tea but they were happy to refill it with either, rice, soya or almond milk.
I look forward to trying out more from the interesting Harvest menu on my next visit to Vienna.
Pros: Interesting quality food, Friendly spacious environment, Not too expensive
Cons: Toilet access up stairs, Not enough sugar free desserts!

One of the nicest vegan cafés in Vienna! - Edit
I love Harvest Café and have already been there quite a number of times. They have a big selection of delicious vegan cakes, refreshing homemade lemonade and most of all a very relaxed and cozy atmosphere. Definitely worth a (or many) visit(s)! :-)

Lovely atmosphere, tasty food, friendly staff - Edit
I highly recommend this place. It has a cosy and warm atmosphere, with comfy chairs, nice decoration, and everything that just make you want to stay there. I went here twice, which is exceptional for me when I'm on a vacation. First time, on a Saturday, I enjoyed the brunch, which had lots of food to choose from, and delicious too. If you have the time, especially when you're with friends, go here in the weekend to just take your time and have a relaxed brunch (I believe it's about 15 euros and you can refill and try everything from the buffet that you want). Second time I went was on a Monday, when there's no brunch, but I had the buffet (with less choice, but cheaper) which was also very good. Alternatively, there's a menu one could choose from. So plenty of options. Last but not least, the staff were most friendly and helpful!

Really nice and original cuisine - Edit
Really loved that place! The owner is really nice : we've been to that place few times during our journey and one time it was so full, but he managed to find us a place. Quick service despite the popularity! At Harvest you will find vegan cuisine but really different from other places and also original! Not expensive!

A comfy place to enjoy delicious food - Edit
By style, this place represents a stylish viennese bistro, flowing with the atmosphere of the city. Food wise, they have a creative selection of vegan and vegeterian meals with labels in the menu. The staff was very friendly and ready to help. Portions were standard, serving time fast. The desserts were done very nicely and tasted very good, tiramisu in perticular.

Friendly, tasty, cozy - but not completely vegan - Edit
I went here for the brunch on a saturday. Usually it's all you can eat for 14,40 €, but since I wasn't hungry, they made an exception for me, and I could just get a single plate for 7,70€. All of the food was tasty and varied. All labels had allergens clearly marked. The staff was very friendly, and I felt very comfortable in the place. The only downside is that they actually have a few dairy products, but it seems impossible to get one of them by accident.
Read morePros: friendly, nice vibe, very tasty
Cons: Not completely vegan
