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.
