Caffe Mulassano serves specialty drinks is in a small, highly decorated setting. Maybe a dozen…read moretables with lots of wood accents. We had a couple of Bicerins - espresso, chocolate ganache and frothy cream, and a Chinotto, a carbonated drink made from the fruit of the myrtle-leaved orange tree. Both are specialties of Torino and very tasty.

This place happens to be next to the Barrati & Milano another historic cafe in Turin and as the…read moreother one was shut on Monday we went here for a drink and stop. I also remembered the name as one of the fellow Yelpers in Munich sent me a recommendation for this place just today. This place has been here since 1867 and has grand interiors like many of the old cafes around Europe do. Reminded me so much of some of the ones in Venice, Vienna, Brussels and Lisbon. I had a Bicerin which is a small glass with thick hot melted chocolate, an expresso shot, cream and meringue. Once it's all mixed together this is a match made in heaven. This drink put Turin on the map and I can see why :-)) A great place for a drink and a small feed. I would happily come back here any day :-)) Thanks for the tip Luca ;-)) Made my day :-)

Quick service, lots of flavor selections. The clerk gave us a sample, it was tasty, but not what i…read morewanted. I got the orange cream, my wife got that and a chocolate variety.

Truly, I am honestly embarrassed that I have to give yet another five-star review. It goes against…read morewhat I perceive as my critical nature. This is the place that my friend, an expat, goes to as his regular "go to". It's a bit more upscale looking than the other places in the area but that's not saying as much as it would if we were in the states, it looks may be lie the quality and taste of things. They make all their own baked stuff, seriously and while I'm not a flaky dough kind of guy it's good. They really shine though on their cappuccinos and for me their hot chocolate. As I'm writing in English, for Americans at least, keep in mind that Italian hot chocolate is nothing like our chocolate except for the fact that 1) it is dark and 2) it is somehow made from chocolate. All bets are off after that as I just have to say it is one of the most delicious things I've ever tasted that it's made of chocolate! Italian hot chocolate is more like a quasi chocolate pudding but with the flavor of a hot coco. As I happen to really like chocolate, especially the darker varieties, this is to put it mildly, heaven. The surface congeals and you need to stir it to break through to the more liquidy part underneath - well, well worth it. I am currently going through Torino's coffee shops, to taste their hot chocolate while I can.

Nice place to sit outside and enjoy a cappuccino and pastry in the morning. While our 3 & 5 year…read moreolds ran in the walking square in front. Coffee was excellent and the cream cannolos had my daughters asking for repeat visits. Would definitely recommend it. Bel posto per sedersi fuori e gustare un cappuccino e pasticceria al mattino. Mentre i nostri bambini di 3 e 5 anni correvano nella piazza pedonale di fronte. Il caffè era eccellente ei cannoli alla crema avevano le mie figlie che chiedevano visite ripetute. Lo consiglierei sicuramente.

We had a typical Italian breakfast with coffee and pastries and the cornetti alla crema (cream…read morecroissants) were delicious. The crema pasticcera was really good! The cafe is historical in one of the city main piazzas and had indoor and outdoor seating that is well shaded. Service was very friendly and professional. It was a great experience and felt like stepping back in time. The only reason for 4 vs 5 stars is that I think they could work a little on the upkeep and overall feel of the cafe that while it does feel historical, it also feels a little "tired".

Still a nice little ice cream shop, now called Gelateria Papalele, after its owner, Emmanuele. Had…read moreespresso over nocciola ice cream when it was 87 degrees out. Delicious and welcome. Sit in the piazza across the street.
