Great pastries and Sachertorte

Great pastries and Sachertorte. As good as the tortes in Vienna. The Gruner Veltliner wine also superb. Thanks also to Ben who arranged the delivery in time for my wife’s birthday!

Linz Torte to die for

Received another fabulous cake via the post from Kipferl. The Linz torte is wonderful and true to the recipe. You would have to travel to Austria to find anything as good.
Packaged well and arrived perfect.
I have been ordering since 2021 and have never been disappointed with any of the cakes.

Gorgeous cakes and special wines

Easy to use website with all the lovely cakes and wine to look at.
Very good information on the wines and the ingredients of the cakes.
I ordered cakes and Christmas biscuits first which were delicious.
For my birthday, I ordered some special Austrian wines which are hard to get in the UK.
I was delighted with that delivery as well.
I like that it is possible to choose a day for delivery. That way you can make sure you are in.
I am very happy that I discovered this little gem.

High quality Christmas biscuits

High quality Christmas biscuits, made with quality ingredients and taste amazingly good. If you are an Austrian expat like myself you will know what you are missing from the land of the alps. Danke Hubert and your team for providing this kind of food products in the UK. If I wouldn’t have a daytime job, I would come and work for you in the bakery. 😊

Love KIPFERL

I have been a KIPFERL's customer for several years and have never had a negative or mediocre experience with them. I have tried almost all of their cakes (the very latest one, Dubai Sachertorte, pending), and their cakes and biscuits are always of high quality, fresh, and delicious.
If you have a big sweet tooth, go for Maronitorte (the chestnut cake) or Dobos Torte (the caramel cake). Their Sachertorte, in my opinion, is better than the one in Cafe Central, Vienna.
My favourite cakes include Caprese (the almond-chocolate cake, sumptuous and moist especially for an almond cake), Linzer Torte (red currant spiced with cinnamon), Jewish Apple Cake (apples are not just layered on top of the cake but they are also mixed in the very body of the cake, which makes it so much more apple-y), Topfentorte (a cake made from quark), the Mohntorte (the cocoa-poppyseed cake).
KIPFERL also sell lots of delicious coffees, jams (the Staud's limited edition apricot jam is the best commercial jam I have ever tried, it is just like homemade , as if made out of the best apricots you picked out in your own orchard), gherkins, spicy (but not too hot) tiny peppers, etc. They also have a range of really good Austrian wines.

The customer support is outstanding (thank you Ben!) - I have had to reschedule the making and delivery of a couple of orders in the past, no problem whatsoever. All packages arrive safely packed and in a great condition.
I am truly happy that I have discovered this gem of a bakery/restaurant/shop in the past as it has been making my life sweeter and more pleasant.

Laura, thank you so much for the 5 stars and the kind words. Our Sachertorte is the most popular cake we bake, and it is equally popular with Austrians here in the U.K. as well as all cake lovers who have tried it.

First time I used Kipferl cakes to order on line and I was not disappointed. Hubert was most helpful to me. I thought the service I got was first class and the produce delivered to our friends was magnificent and received rave reviews from them. I found Hubert and his staff very nice to deal with and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely use their services again.

Absolutely fantastic Sacher Torte

Absolutely fantastic Sacher Torte. An elegant balance of flavours - not too sweet or overpowering. I'm a fan and I already requested a cake for my birthday too 😊

G'spritzter is a bit of wine with plenty of tap water and plenty of ice

Last Sunday we were a party of three. Although the quality was generally alright, one item let this place really down: the G'spritzter! I am half Austrian and to serve half a glass of wine with TAP WATER and plenty of ice is NOT a G'spritzter! There needs to be SPARKLING OR SODA WATER and no ice! This is supposed to be an Austrian restaurant and not one from Malibu! On top of this, to charge £8.00 for a bit of wine and plenty of tap water and ice felt like a complete fleece! Actually, had we taken only the G'spritzter, I would have given 1 star only! They have to be far more authentic if they want to claim to be an Austrian restaurant!!!!

Sascha, as I already said on the Google review you posted, due to regular demand from customers we serve our G'spritzter with sparkling water and ice, but if you wanted to have it without we would be happy to skip it. Our prices are in line with other London venues, where the cost is not comparable to Austria I am afraid. Being Austrian myself and running the only authentic Austrian Restaurant in the UK I am saddened by your reviews, and I would love to have a chat with you in person if you want to get in touch with me on Hubert(at)kipferl.co.uk

Dubai chocolate Sachertorte

Really enjoyed the Dubai chocolate Sachertorte that was delivered on Saturday 16th August. The cake was absolutely delicious and just like the Dubai chocolate that we ate there at Easter. Love the crunchy vermicelli filling and not the pistachio cream that you get in other cakes, which make it really sweet. The cake was enjoyed by all - young and old. The birthday boys - 40 years and 2 years old - especially loved the cake.
The delivery gentleman was very polite and friendly as well.
All in all a very pleasurable experience and will definitely recommend the cake and the company.

Dak, thank you so much for the great review, our Dubai Sacher, although a bit polarising, has been an instant hit with our customers and many love the combination of Sachertorte with the Dubai filling. We hope to be able to bake for you again soon. Best

Best Austrian Cakes in London!

I have ordered 5 cakes from Kipferl as we had a lot of guests visiting from Austria for our son's wedding. Don't know which one to recommend first as they were all so tasty. I ordered the Sacher Torte, Esterhazy Torte, Dobos Torte and the Haus Torte. Loved them all! Thank you Hubert for bringing Vienna to London.

Both orders arrived damaged. Disappointing refund offered.

I ordered a birthday cake and it arrived damaged. Their response surprised me; they seemed to imply that damage was to be expected. They offered me a refund on the delivery fee (£5) or a £15 voucher for a future purchase. I opted for the voucher.

Most of their shop is not eligible for delivery, and so I ended up spending another £15 to get apfel strudel, which also was significantly damaged in transit.

The cake was yummy but the strudel was soggy.

I have ordered baked goods from other companies around the UK that were able to deliver undamaged, tasty goods.

I cannot recommend this bakery for delivered orders.

Really sorry for the issues with delivery. Since we have moved from DHL to DPD the number of issues with deliveries has gone down dramatically, but on rare occasions we still get delivery drivers who do not treat our parcels with the expected care.

Sorry for this Leigh, unfortunately in rare cases some reckless delivery drivers don't treat our cakes the way we would love them to, but we always flexibly make up for any damage in transit. Glad the large cake was ok ! Best, Hubert
