You could easily find yourself lost in the day negotiating a savory menu of coffees, teas, cocktails, wines, croissants, tortes, strudel, bruschetta, and tramezzini... Only to suddenly find yourself listening to live music and embraced in a night of drinking.  The Gehmacher Cafe is a hidden gem that will appeal to every type of patron.

Mysterious - in a first sight it looks like a shop with furniture and houseware. Second - you realise that it is a cafe full of aromatic coffee and great sweets, esp. cakes and strudels. Great!

Salzburg was very busy and we found Gehmacher Cafe tucked away at the back of a store. An oasis of calm, great coffee and good food. Loved the iced rosen macchiato. So relaxing with a free of the river. A haven from all the crowds.

Such a cool and creative idea to have an eatery inside a furniture store! The food and drinks were unique and delicious. The employee serving us was very welcoming, friendly, and provided wonderful service. If you want a unique atmosphere, a quiet place to grab a bite, and a view of Salzach I highly recommend!!

What a find! Through an interiors shop to the back was this terrific little cafe. The coffee was great & this cherry & almond slice was not only delicious, it was huge! The staff were very nice & it was a great way to spend 30 mins after a day of sightseeing.

Nice & beautiful place to have coffee with friends. Coffee place is inside the furniture shop and both shops are merged. Price is reasonable two coffees and cakes cost around 12-13€ …. You can also have drink and some type of appetizers
