Probably the best Pasticceria in Viareggio hands down! Cute interior, but if you can snag a table…read moreon the patio I'd recommend that, as it gets a bit hot inside during the summer. Their chocolate pear pastries are delicious! Coffee great. Can't go wrong with anything here... they also have an interesting selection of savory/salty breakfast items too, like brioche sandwiches and such.

The cappuccino is great. The brioche with nutella mmmm.

All of the pastries here are fantastic. This place gets packed in the morning and afternoon, but the service is very fast and friendly. Very nice decor as well. The mapped location given on trip advisor is a couple of blocks too far to the east. This place is near the intersection of Via Fratti and Via Zanardelli. If you don't come here during your stay in Viareggio you are missing something special.

Excellent service and prices! I came here with my grandparents and we were looking for a place to…read morehave breakfast that didn't have tourist prices. We came here and they have a good selection of pastries made in house that were really good! The coffee was good as well. What was really outstanding was the service! I accidentally ordered the wrong coffee for my grandfather and when I went to fix it they offered to do it for me! They really didn't have to because it was my mistake not theirs but they were really very kind about the entire situation! The prices if you order at the bar are essentially the same as at every other bar in Italy. If you order and bring your own items to the tables you don't pay a coperto. It's only if you have table service that you pay higher prices. I would absolutely come back here again! A gem near the duomo with good prices even in the middle of tourist season!

MY FAVORITE PLACE!! I actually took the wrong train on my…read moreway to Cinque Terre and had to make a stop in Viareggio to change onto another train. During my short stay, I had time for coffee and found this place. Absolutely beautiful interior, books, coffee, and really friendly owner. Super sweet and cozy place.

This place is so cute and definitely American influenced. It's about a ten minute walk away from…read morethe leaning tower of Pisa. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating here. Also, a huge selection of baked goods, drinks, and breakfast. We were craving for an American style breakfast and this place definitely satisfied that! We ordered an ice coffee latte, chai latte, breakfast bagel, scrambled eggs and pancakes with fruit. The chai latte was just right in sweetness and had a strong tea flavor. The breakfast bagel included a sunny side egg, bacon, and avocado - which my boyfriend really enjoyed. The pancakes came with mixed berries and banana. Everything here was delicious and does not feel heavy on the stomach. And the portion sizes are just enough to fill you up.

The chia seed bowl was pretty good but not the most special but if you're looking for healthy then it's a good option. Lots of young people as well it's pretty popular on the weekends!

However, I completely devoured the half-dozen cookies I ordered in near record time. Everything was light, flavorful, and fresh. There's nothing quite like baked cookies from someone with a lot of experience and traditional training. If you're around the piazza, I highly recommend grabbing some selections and sitting down on the church steps outside. It's one of a kind experience that you'll remember for the rest of your life.

We got a table right at the water's edge, and were served promptly. We ordered croquets and a couple of pizzas. These pizzas were easily one of the best lunches of the trip so far, and the potato croquets where like creamy, cheesy tater tots on steroids! My wife had the Carbonara pizza (a white pizza with egg, porcetta, and cheese), and I had the Mammamia with tomato, fresh mozzarella and DELICIOUS spicy sausage (not too spicy, just a pleasant zing of heat). Their gelato selection looked pretty good too, but we were too full to indulge. If you find yourself in Porto Venere, definitely try this place!
