Vollpension, Vienna’s Grandparent-Run Café
A Viennese generation café serving homemade cakes from grandmothers and grandfathers, alongside breakfast, events, baking courses, catering, and a shop.
Field notes
The project combines café service with an intergenerational production model: older people make the homemade cakes while a younger team appears alongside them in the site’s organizational structure. The public navigation identifies locations in Vienna’s 1st and 4th districts, a separate studio, and practical extensions including cake orders, vouchers, baking courses, catering, team-building, recipes, jobs, and press material. A section for bringing the generation café to other cities is presented as part of the project’s broader vision.
