Caffè Florian

Step into Caffè Florian, the historic 1720 café on St Mark's Square. Order a coffee or cocktail beneath the arcades with live music, then wander through the ornate period rooms inside.

📖

Full description

Caffè Florian is a landmark café on St Mark's Square whose interior of luxurious period rooms dates from the 1720s, a setting reviewers link to the era of Casanova. Coffee, cocktails and light meals are served both inside and at tables on the square, where musicians play in the evening.

The experience is as much about the rooms as the drinks, so it is worth stepping inside even if you sit outside. Prices are high and queues can build up, and opinions on value are mixed, but the atmosphere remains its main draw.

Reviews

Service was outstanding and our lunch was wonderful. My boyfriend and I sat outside underneath the umbrella and enjoyed sandwiches and cocktails while listening to live music. Be sure to go inside to see the lavish interior of this 18th century coffeehouse.
