  1. A

    Aret'a'Palm

    Its name means ‘behind the palm’ in Neapolitan, and that’s exactly where you’ll find this soulful piazza-side bolt-hole, decked out in red velvet curtains and dimly lit mirrors. Slip in and rub shoulders with a laid-back crowd of artists, actors and academics, who flock here as much for the jazz and blues as for the inspiring wine list.

    Bluestone

    Soulless to some, über-glam to others, this slinky restaurant-bar–live music venue is the latest place to see and be seen. Ditch the overpriced menu and join the label-loving crowd for live gigs spanning local singer-songwriters to imported jazz, gospel and rock. Check the website for what’s on when.

    Grooming

    One in a row of quirky bars, Grooming is a hit with Vomero's rich kids. Under its hanging African masks, they sip aperitifs, snack on panini (sandwiches) and gaze out over city and sea. Head in early for food as it tends to run out.

    Kinky Bar

    Though its name may suggest otherwise, there are no whips and chains here - just a funky smoky cellar pumping out dub and reggae, man. A mainly student crowd packs the place, with overspill packing out the bar-lined street outside.

    White Bar

    Bar-hopping fashionistas always make time for White. Stark and minimalist, it never upstages their Capri tans and catwalk threads. Join the moneyed masses for lounge tunes and one of the city's best aperitivo spreads.

    Chandelier

    Chandelier is a slick pic of shiny white floors, black walls and a bright-yellow motorbike on show beside the bar. Popular for evening aperitivo, its perma-tanned clientele nibble and chill to house, pop and R&B.

    St Tropez

    Looking like a tiny Buddha Bar with its red paper lanterns and zebra-print bar stools, this intimate bar soothes with its retro, lounge and house tunes. Aperitivo starts at 19:00. Dig in with a rum-and-pear cocktail.

    Al Barcadero

    Turn left down the steps as you walk towards Borgo Marinaro and you’ll find this unpretentious waterfront bar. Grab a beer, plonk yourself by the water and gaze out at boat-rowing fishermen and a menacing Mt Vesuvius.

    Fusion Bar 66

    Vintage Turkish lanterns and gilded gold and silver chairs give this place a funky ethnic vibe. A 30-plus crowd spills out onto the street, living it up to jazz, lounge and the occasional live bossa nova act.

    Enoteca Belledonne

    One of the best-loved wine bars in Chiaia. All exposed-brick walls and bottle-lined shelves, it’s a stalwart of the area’s well-trodden aperitivo (happy hour) circuit.
