Are these details incorrect?

1. Gran Caffè Aragonese

This café dominates the scene on this beautiful and crowded piazza. It offers a good range of local desserts and savoury snacks, and excellent Neapolitan-style coffee.
2. Scaturchio

Noted all over Naples for its wonderful traditional pastries, it’s a real treat to sample the wares while checking out this piazza. Don’t arrive too late or you may find they’ve sold out.
3. Bar Mexico

This café is reputed to have the best espresso in town, but if you don’t want it sweetened (alla napoletana ) then ask for a caffè amaro (bitter coffee). A hot-weather winner is the frappe di caffè (iced whipped coffee). You can also stock up on some wonderful coffee blends to take home.
4. Caffè dell’Epoca

Dating back to 1886, this place knows all about quality. Enjoy an espresso and a cornetto (croissant) at one of the outside tables – or make like a local and stand at the bar.
5. Gelateria della Scimmia

This is one of the city’s oldest and most famous gelaterie (ice-cream parlours) so expect a crowd.
6. Berevino

The perfect wine bar to sample an extensive array of Campanian wines, as well as some fine national selections.
7. Chocolat

This attractive little place features 30 different kinds of chocolate, granite (chunky sorbets) and many varieties of cappuccino . A great atmosphere.
8. Intra Moenia

The mainstay of Piazza Bellini and a good place to hang out and enjoy a drink. In warm weather it’s also a lively gay venue in the evenings.
9. Caffè Arabo

Not just a great café with an appealing atmosphere, but a purveyor of delicious Arabic goodies and full meals.
10. Internetbar

This trendy establishment offers Internet facilities, drinks and snacks, and an art gallery.
