Top 10 Cafés and Entertainment Venues
-
1. Bar Magenta
Comfortable, Parisian-style café with outdoor seating, a decent food menu, tasty cocktails and Guinness on tap (see Bar Magenta, Milan).
-
2. Pasticceria Marchesi
A delightfully Old World café and chocolatier near the Last Supper (see Pasticceria Marchesi, Milan).
-
3. Bar Jamaica
One of half a dozen bars and gelaterie (ice-cream parlours) lining a pedestrianized stretch just north of the Pinacoteca. It was one of Milan’s first bohemian bars, given its name by a local journalist who thought it resembled the bar in Hitchcock’s Jamaica Inn .
-
4. El Tombon de San Marc
Though it’s touting a full menu these days, most people still head to the Brera’s San Marc for its bar, beers and late hours.
-
5. Le Trottoir
Miniscule, arty disco with live acts and throngs of trendy Milanese stuffed into a narrow space and spilling out onto the street.
-
6. Bar Radetzky
This minimalist, down-to-business café has been around forever, best-known for a quick espresso in the morning and an aperitivo stop in the evening.
-
7. Bar Margherita
Comfortable, modernish lounge with deep cushions, decent snacks and good cocktails.
-
8. Hollywood
Fashion models and designers still hold on to the Hollywood as their own club.
-
9. Tunnel
This warehouse under the railway station is where you come to see rock bands before they become big stars.
-
10. Teatro degli Arcimboldi
Originally the temporary venue for La Scala’s opera and ballet companies it is way out in the industrial suburb of Bicocca – but well worth the trip for performances in a state-of-the-art theatre.
