Stop in for a bite to rest your feet and people-watch. Two floors, a big screen TV, nice lounging areas for small groups, and a popular outdoor seating area. The indoor seating was clean, attractive and recently upholstered. Don't think of sitting outdoors unless you're a smoker too. Our server was super hospitable and found us something to eat even though we had arrived prior to dinner time (7:30 pm). Apparently only drinking occurs in the late afternoon in Trieste, because we couldn't find any downtown restaurants serving dinner at the time most Americans want to eat their evening meal.

It is just a great restaurant to sit and have a cappuccino and enjoy a little of that Italian ocean breeze. But the best treasure is the staff, they are friendly, courteous, and don't mind my terrible Italiano. I would highly recommend this restaurant

Trieste to me is a bit of a strange town. Not very Italian and seems a bit lacking in any sort of…read moreatmosphere. The reason for adding this to the review is we struggled to find any interesting bars. This though is one I would recommend trying if you in the city and looking for something a bit more modern. Staff are not very friendly, but they do their jobs well enough. There is a decent mix of local draft and some strange bottled beers. I guess the two major plus points is they bring you 4 or 5 plates of nibbles free of charge to have with your drinks. Peanuts, olives, crisps, bread sticks and fresh bread all landed on our table and with a bottle of beer for under 3 euros, you can't really complain. Worth a looking and a beer if you find yourself in Trieste.

Only came for the coffee as I heard it was a great spot, so I can't speak on the food. Seating is plentiful. Service was similar to that of other cafes in the area; nothing special and a bit slow. But, it's an outing in a cute spot. I recommend sitting outside as the inside gets a bit hot and lacks air flow.

It has a big bar, a corner where you can bet on sports, a separate "bar room" with a TV and a dining area. They also have some small tables outside, but they are very few and it may be difficult to find a free one. You can stop here for a coffee, or for a glass of wine, or after-lunch-liquor or cocktail. They have a wide variety of pastry and panini or similar (like the Italian tramezzini, toast, etc) but they also offer full lunches and salads. We have tried everything but the lunches, and there is absolutely nothing I didn't like; plus, the staff is always very friendly. The only negative thing is that (as in every city) parking is extremely difficult to find; however, it is reachable with public transportation, which is pretty efficient in Trieste.
