Caffè Gilli

Caffè Gilli (Piazza della Repubblica)

Café since 1733; espresso €1.50 standing at the bar

Budget

Bar espresso ~€1.50

Address

Via Roma 1r, on the corner of Piazza della Repubblica

A café going on 290 years: gilt mouldings, chandeliers, glass cases full of cakes and chocolates. The terrace on the piazza is a nice perch facing the carousel, but sitting multiplies the price of the same coffee. Do as Italians do: espresso at the bar, a slice of tiramisù.
