Just a heads-up to check your bank statements if you were at Patisserie Salzburg in Stamford today. After I paid, one employee literally ran outside after me, saying my transaction didn’t go through, even though I had already been told I was all set. Thankfully, I checked my banking app immediately, and it showed the $7.69 charge was already processing. When I went back inside and showed another employee, they seemed surprised that the charge had in fact gone through. I also noticed another register appeared to be having payment issues with a different transaction. Luckily, I checked before allowing another charge. It may be worth reviewing your bank or credit card statement to make sure you weren’t accidentally charged twice.

I have ordered many cakes and food at this business countless times. Their food is fantastic. I was surprised to find out that the cake I ordered was $86. Whoever had done the ordering with me over the phone, didn’t communicate that clearly to me. But what makes me more sad, is that someone with bad handwriting put this on top of the cake and it just makes it look cheap, and sloppy and I’m very disappointed. For this amount of money, I’d expect this to be top notch and this really underdelivered.

It's overpriced and the staff isn't friendly. One time i asked for two scrambled eggs. It was dredged in oil and they charged me $7. Today I went and grabbed two oatmeal cookies from the pastry section. I got to my car and realized it also has cranberries and chocolate chips in it. I went back in and explained that I asked for oatmeal and the two women argued with me saying it is oatmeal missing the point that they added their own twist to it. They were not interested in offering an exchange or remedy and were not apologetic at all. A normal oatmeal cookie wouldn't have all that extra stuff which I couldn't see on the surface but realized after taking a bite. The don't have out labels for any of the selection.

Patisserie Salzburg is the kind of place you drift toward when the sun is out and the harbor air feels just right. Small tables outside, light bouncing off the glass, people slowing down for a moment. It is my mom’s favorite spot, and once you sit there with a coffee and something sweet, you understand why.
Step inside and it feels like you’ve walked into a full European pastry counter. The display stretches with croissants, fruit tarts, layered cakes, macarons, dense chocolate slices, and rows of delicate desserts that look almost too precise to touch. It is the kind of spread that makes you pause and scan twice. You come in thinking café, but it leans closer to a full bakery in both range and quality.
Then you notice it goes further. Behind the sweets is a full lunch lineup that could stand on its own anywhere in Stamford. Pizza slices with bubbling cheese, golden quesadillas, trays of chicken wings, baked pastas, fresh salads, dumplings, and soups. There is even a proper deli section with wraps and prepared foods that feel homemade rather than mass-produced. It is not trying to be one thing. It just does everything well and lets you choose your mood.
While there are a few locations, it still feels very much like a personally run operation rather than a polished chain. There is consistency, but also personality, and that comes through in the food and in the atmosphere.
The space itself is compact, but that is part of its appeal. It carries that European side street café energy, a little tight, a little busy, but warm and lived in. Nothing feels staged. It feels real.
The staff are friendly and efficient, but there is also a presence you notice quickly, the no nonsense “mama” running the place. She may not return your smile, even if you offer one first. But it does not come off as cold. It reads more like someone who has seen everything, knows exactly what she is doing, and stands firmly behind what she serves. There is something honest about that. In a town where many places try too hard to charm, this kind of quiet confidence stands out.
Patisserie Salzburg is more than a café, more than a bakery, and more than a lunch spot. It brings all of it together with character. On a warm day in Harbor Point, it is exactly where you want to be.

The lady behind counter was very rude, dismissive and just a very bad attitude. I went Friday evening, my sister and I sat outside because we had dogs. My sister went in to get the desserts and the lady was rude. I went in and asked if they had any whip cream or puppuccino, right away she said no without missing a beat and long face waiting for me to leave. I asked her if she had any pet friendly food, she said no. What bakery with cafe doesn’t have any whip cream? It’s the way she said no and dismissed my ask so fast. I wasn’t begging for free things, I don’t what her problem is. Looking at the other reviews, it seems like treats everyone this way.
Dessert and coffee was ok, nothing out of the ordinary.
I've been here many times and always liked the food and the staff. I once saw a bug crawling under the counter but I chalked it up to warm weather, people with dogs, etc. (don't know why they allow dogs but whatever). Yesterday I went to get a make-your-own-salad. I was shocked and horrified to see lots of bugs flying around the salad counter, over the bins of ingredients they leave uncovered as they make salads to order. There were at least a dozen swarming and landing on the food. God knows how many more were in the kitchen! The guy continued to make another customer a salad as if nothing was amiss. I was so appalled I left, and I don't think I could ever eat here again.

There is no option like Salzburg in Stamford! An assortment of fresh foods prepared daily - the quality of the ingredients used is palpable in every bite. Some favorites are their chicken Cesar wrap, chicken dumplings, tuna salad, yogurt parfait and penne a la vodka! It’s hard not to come to this place for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
A big part of the experience is how professional and attentive the waitstaff is here. Besa and Gerta are so welcoming and hospitable, run a tight ship, and always make it a point to ensure I’m 100% in love with my order(s). If you’re looking for a consistent 10/10 eatery, Salzburg is it!
