Scandi-style bakery-café from Stefano Ferraro, a former Noma pastry chef, and widely cited as home to Milan's best laminated pastries. The cardamom and cinnamon buns and seasonal viennoiserie are the draw, backed by serious specialty coffee including several batch brews. Weekend queues at the original Via Guicciardini spot can approach an hour, so go on a weekday morning or try the larger Via Varesina location. Kitchen runs breakfast and lunch only, closing at 15:00.
The Milan outpost of Ditta Artigianale, the acclaimed Florentine specialty coffee brand founded by award-winning barista and roaster Francesco Sanapo, set in a bright Liberty-style space on Corso Magenta near Santa Maria delle Grazie. Casual and self-service, it is known for its single-origin coffees and house-roasted blends alongside brunch favorites like eggs Benedict and homemade cakes and pastries.
The original micro-roastery and cafe of Cafezal, the Italian-Brazilian specialty coffee brand founded by Carlos Bitencourt (the name means coffee plantation in Portuguese), with the small roasting machine on display behind the counter. The stylish post-modern space in dark blue and copper tones is known for single-origin filter coffee, flat whites and signature salted caramel lattes, plus breakfast and pastries.
A brunch-focused location of Cafezal, Milan's Italian-Brazilian specialty coffee brand, set in the Bicocca district within the BiM complex. Relaxed and easygoing, it pairs the roastery's carefully made espresso and filter coffee with a full breakfast and brunch menu, making it a popular spot for a leisurely morning.
A stylish concept space on Via Broletto in Brera that pairs an espresso bar with a showroom for Piaggio's iconic Italian two-wheeler brands such as Vespa, Moto Guzzi, Aprilia and Piaggio. You can sip a coffee served in Vespa-branded cups while admiring the gleaming bikes and browsing helmets and apparel, making it a fun, design-forward stop even if you are not shopping for a scooter.
