The royal palace's café, in Sisi's ground-floor salons: mirrors, console tables and crystal chandeliers, and you enter without a museum ticket.

The place
CaFE IDA opened in March 2022 on the ground floor of the palace, in the so-called Sisi salons: the sitting rooms the queen used for receiving guests, with console tables, mirrors and crystal chandeliers. It has about forty seats and you enter without buying the museum ticket, so it works just as well for a coffee before the visit as for waiting for the light garden to open.
What to have
Coffee and pastries. It is not a restaurant: for a proper meal, cross to the Erzsébet Királyné hotel, five minutes away, or go up to the Napolizza pizzeria.

Qué pedir: A coffee and cake in Sisi's salons after the visit, or before the light garden.

A tener en cuenta: Inside the palace, on the ground floor; no museum ticket needed.
