Camparino in Galleria

Camparino Cafe is located at the entrance to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, just a short stroll from Teatro alla Scala. Toscanini and Verdi were just some of the celebrities who frequented this venue. Camparino in Galleria essentially the symbol of the Milanese Aperitivo. Opened in 1867, the interior is impressive with mosaics by Angelo d’Andrea. If you stand and drink by the bar you can avoid the steep prices that rise once you sit down with table service.

Cafes

In Italy, gelato is eaten just as religiously as pasta. It’s not only Italy’s delicious answer to ice cream — it is a way of life. Accompany yours with a strong espresso or cappuccino for the full Milan cafe experience.
