Cafes to Visit in Venice


With so much beautiful architecture and scenery to enjoy in Venice it is criminal not to sit and enjoy it. A great way to do so is from one of the city’s many cafes, of which some of the best are described below.

Caffè Quadri

This establishment has a cafe and a restaurant, both of which are stunning. The real joy of this cafe is that it has maintained its character despite the changes to the modern world around it. The coffee is of genuinely high quality but is certainly not for those watching the purse strings.

Caffè del Doge

This cafe is definitely worth a visit when near the Rialto Bridge. If you are the sort of person who likes to try different coffees then the variety of this establishments menu will certainly appeal to you. The distinctive sign of this cafe has been attracting visitors for years.

Gelateria il Doge

Whether you are after an ice cream, a coffee or a soft drink you will find something to suit you here. This is not one of the most glamorous cafes in the city but it certainly does the job and does it well.

Florian

This is a truly grand cafe which is amongst the oldest of its kind in Venice. It will come as no surprise that this cafe has been in existence for over 300 years when you view the stunning design features and sample the magical atmosphere inside.
