  • Caffè Martini

    This café may be overpriced but is great for Duomo views and watching the people, processions and protest rallies at Milan’s heart.

  • Top conservatory with free concerts by Milan’s philharmonic orchestra.

  • Nestling in the heart of Milan’s boutique district since 1817, Cova offers excellent coffee and pastries (see Cova, Milan).

  • Very popular panino bar at lunch, with umbrella-shaded tables on a pedestrian street. Stellar sandwiches, decent coffee.

  • Snacks and sushi, coffee and cocktails in a nook off the main shopping area.

  • This businessmen’s lunch spot transforms into a yuppie disco – one of the few in Central Milan – with live music after 11pm; dress well.

  • After an extensive restoration programme this magnificent opera house has recently reopened.

  • Perennial Milan discotheque just a few blocks south of the Duomo where the chic set come to dine then dance the night away.

  • This historic café and tea room is also known for making some of the best chocolates in Italy (see Sant’Ambroseus, Milan).

  • A gorgeous Liberty-style café, with views of the Duomo. Zucca holds the dubious honour of having introduced Milan to the apéritif Campari (see Zucca (Caffè Miani), Milan).
