Another very good pizzeria - if you are in for a romantic dinner, ask the waiter to be seated in the back room, which has more atmosphere. Gets busy at weekends

A family-run patisserie, which is perfect if you want to treat yourself to a nice breakfast. Their selection of pastries and cakes is mouth watering. Try the pastry with walnuts and maple syrup. Yum!

Drinks & Nightlife
They also do food, however this ex factory converted into a very cool bar is the perfect place for the Milanese aperitivo. Booking recommended for large parties.

Only one of the many bars in the Navigli district but I particularly recommend it as it's run by a friend and has a nice atmosphere. Good selection of excellent beers. Food also available
