Where Flavor Meets Comfort: A Must-Visit Café in Old Town Salzburg

220GRAD Rupertinum is a café is located in Old Town, right next to the Museum der Moderne Salzburg.

Upon arrival, you’ll need to wait to be seated. The ambiance is bright, welcoming, and chic, featuring white accents, exposed brick floors, and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. It creates a relaxing, comfortable environment where you can unwind and enjoy your meal.

The table setup is beautiful, and the staff is lovely and friendly.

While the breakfast menu is small, it’s hearty and well-curated, and the coffee selection is impressively extensive. What’s particularly unique is that the menu provides flavor profiles for each dish, allowing you to anticipate the perfect combination of tastes.

I ordered the egg brioche and opted for rye sourdough bread. The dish consisted of:

  • Brioche
  • Ristretto-glazed bacon
  • Ham
  • Poached egg
  • Nut butter espuma
  • Tomato chutney
  • Basil mayo
  • Baby spinach

It was an incredible medley of flavors—creamy, sweet, savory, and fatty—all coming together beautifully. The bacon stood out with its delicious umami flavor, perfectly balanced and not overly salty.

To accompany the meal, I had a flat white with oat milk. The coffee was delightful—light-bodied with a hint of sour aftertaste. I enjoyed it so much that I couldn’t resist ordering a second cup.

This café is a must-visit if you’re in Salzburg. Its cozy atmosphere, fantastic food, and exceptional coffee make it a true gem.
