Caffetteria Chiostro del Bramante

Centro Storico


Few cafes are as beautifully located as this one on the 1st floor of Bramante's elegant Renaissance cloisters. With tables above the central courtyard and sofas in a vintage-styled room overlooking Raphael's frescoes in the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Pace, it serves everything from cakes and coffee to baguettes, risottos and avocado starters.
