Naples
Bottle-lined timber shelves set a cosy scene at this classic Chiaia wine shop and bar. Swill, sniff and eavesdrop over a list of well-chosen, mostly Italian wines, including over 30 by the glass. The decent grazing menu includes Italian and Spanish charcuterie and cheese (from €8), as well as just-caught crudo platters (€25) from nearby Pescheria Mattiucci.
If you prefer hops to grapes, options include harder-to-find Piedmontese beer Menabrea on tap.
