Great Cafe near the city center. You can have a really delicious Italian coffee together with some nice pastries. In addition the staff was always very gentle. It opens early in the morning. Although sometimes may be full it is worth waiting.
The best gelato in Genoa by far and the nicest owner! He gave us travel tips and tips on which gelato flavour was best on the day. We came back from a day trip to Portofino, and went straighh here to remind us of how good gelato can be. A must if you are visiting the city.
Cute cafe! A great cappuccino and kind barista. The food looks good too.
A quiet spot in the winding streets of the old town that’s open early - a welcome find if you arrive early in the city and aren’t able to check in to your room yet. It’s a small coffee bar with a few small tables inside and outside. The coffee was decent and there were also a selection of breads and pastries, including the classic genovese breakfast: focaccia.
Good coffe and not bad croissant but not just out of the oven.
