Snack restaurants in Naples

  1. A

    Friggitoria Vomero

    The stuff of legend, this spartan snack bar makes some of the city's finest fritture (deep-fried snacks). Crunch away on deep-fried aubergines, potatoes and zeppole (doughnuts), frittatine di maccheroni (fried pasta and egg) and supplì di riso (rice balls). Located opposite the funicular, it's a handy pit stop before legging it to the Certosa di San Martino.

    Attanasio

    So you thought a sfogliatella from Pintauro was crispy perfection? Bite into the piping-hot ricotta filling at this retro pastry pedlar and prepare to reassess. But why stop there with so many trays of fresh, plump treats on show, from creamy cannolli siciliani to a runny, rummy babà. Savoury fiends shouldn't pass up the hearty pasticcino rustico, stuffed with provola cheese, ricotta and salami.

    Tarallificio Esposito

    Made with pepper, almonds and pork fat, oven-baked taralli mandorlati (savoury almond biscuits) are dangerously addictive and readily available at this heirloom Sanità bakery. But don't stop at the classic, with moreish variations including buttery taralli (crunchy, ring-shaped biscuits) with friarielli (Neapolitan broccoletti), olio (olive oil) and lemon glaze. For a more substantial feed, fill up on the scrumptious focaccia.
