The famous Gran Caffe Gambrinus Naples

One of the top things to do in Naples is to have a coffee here at the historic Gambrinus Caffee.
Once frequented by Oscar Wilde and perfectly located at the pulse of the city this Opera of a coffee house is still all it promises to be.

Grand by name Grand by nature. People dress up to come here.

Gambrinus is actually the patron saint of beer brewing and this place indeed used to be a bar rather then a patisserie, but once you take a look inside all you'll want is coffee and cake. Or perhaps an Easter Egg as they in season right now.




As it is still early in the day I just had a coffee, at the price of an impressive 1 Euro, mingling with the suited and booted Neapolitans, yet feeling like a proper tourist. One of my favourites in Italy, this very small but perfectly smooth and strong hero of a coffee, with that endlessly creamy lingering foam, I just want to stick my tongue into the cup and slubber it all up.
