Vienna's coffee house culture

What's the difference between a coffeehouse and a café? While a café is a place where you can get a quick cup of coffee, stay for a while or just order a coffee to go, a coffeehouse is a place where you can stay for hours. You can read, work, chat or play games without having to leave or order more coffee. Viennese coffeehouses usually offer a wide range of coffee specialities as well as cakes and pastries, are often very traditionally furnished and have a very special atmosphere, including waiters in bow ties with silver trays.
Vienna's coffeehouses were once a meeting place for intellectuals, writers and philosophers - and it is this ambience that they still exude today. Vienna's coffeehouses are a place of comfort for young and old, businessmen and dreamers, coffee lovers and cosmopolitans.
