    Excellent bakery, we repeated the experience three times, and would go back more if we could. Everything they offer is delicious, brioche, croissants, breads, pastries, and the coffee is amazing too. My favorites were the chocolate brioche and Swiss croissant, paired with a cappuccino; heaven! Make time to stop by, you won't regret it!

    Wonderful bakery and cafe. Princi had a wide selection of breads, coffee, desserts, panini and take away pizza. I got the caprese pizza. It was delicious - the dough was crunchy and flavourful, and the toppings were very fresh. The counter service was quick and efficient. This is mostly a take-away place, but there are high tables inside and outside, if you want to stick around.

    The food? Fine. Not trying to be more than it is, and it shows. The spritz, though--sharp, balanced, no frills, just done right. What pulls you in is the atmosphere: stone, wood, heat. There is an honesty to it. You see the process through glass--flour flying, hands moving fast, and behind it all, stacked wood like a quiet reminder this place still respects fire and craft. Not a destination, but a damn decent pause if you are wandering Milan and need a drink with some bite.

    Great bakery This is a wonderful bakery with a large range of lunch, snack and dessert options. The coffee is quite good too!

    Focaccia/arugula/prosciutto/mozzarella sandwich. EXCELLENT

    Princi is an EXCELLENT bakery and café. There are several locations throughout Milan and Europe. I recently learned that Starbucks is a licensed partner with Princi since 2016. This fun fact did not ruin my authentic Italian bakery experience. The focaccia sandwiches are delicious. Made with fresh ingredients and the bread is super crispy on the outside! my favorite item was the olive bread, I have never had anything like this in my life. The bread was absolutely divine stuffed with lots of fresh castelvetrano olives! Blew my mind away! My only regret is not buying more. The bakery sells out of this delicious olive bread every single day. My goodness...I'll never forget how yummy this place is!

    we saw reviews online and so when we were near the duomo we decided to check it out, and i would recommend everyone to check it out. there are three different stations - first is bread and pies, second is pizza and third are coffee and pastries. the third line is generally the longest and in the morning can take approximately 20 mins. we ordered the orange juice, chocolate croissant, brownie, bread roll and cookie. each was really good in flavor and quality. overall a high quality bakery!

    This was a really cool spot to visit! It was a bit confusing on how the queue worked once inside, not to mention that you also have to make a queue outside to get in. But once inside there is a large area with different stations surrounding what seems to be a huge coffee grinder? We ordered three different pizzas, a croissant, large cookie along with two coffees and a lemon spritzer. I absolutely loved the spritzer, it tasted just like a virgin mojito. As for the food it was okay. I mean you are in Italy! I feel like the pizza a restaurant is much better (though I could be biased as I got the buffalo pizza which apparently is supposed to be cold because of the fresh mozzarella). Overall, I feel like this is an interesting place to visit once. Especially for their drinks and possibly a pastry. I personally would skip the pizza.

    Au hasard d'une rue nous sommes tombés sur cette boulangerie et en avons profité pour y prendre quelques pizzas pour un apéro et une brioche pour le déjeuner du lendemain. C'était en fin de journée alors la sélection n'était plus aussi grande qu'en début de journée. Le service a été assez rapide. Les pizzas étaient bonnes, quoi que un peu épaisses et la brioche était correcte mais sans plus... après il est difficile de juger si c'était une spécialité locale ou pas. C'était très peu sucré et un peu sec à mon goût mais nous avons tout de même tout mangé.

    A little confusing as to how the queue worked (do I wait over there or over here?) but other than that, the usual pointing at one of the breakfast sandwiches and "double espresso" worked wonders. The young lady taking orders understood enough English for that. Excellent coffee (how did I manage skip getting coffee yesterday??) that got me going despite the six hour jet lag. With the coffee, the breakfast sandwich gave me the energy I needed for another walking tour of Milan. This small cafe has seating and a free wifi (the code was printed on the receipt) so I sat for a bit to catch my bearings and work out the plan of attack for the rest of the day.

    - Cute pastry shop chess a couple of blocks away from the duomo. Buttery croissants. Well priced coffee/espresso drinks. Good quick stop for breakfast or a quick lunch.

    Wonder bakery with freshly baked breads, Focaccia, and desserts onsite! It's first come first serve so expect a line.

    Baker's area

    It was a little chaotic in there as the place was on a tight side, there's really no system on ordering and getting your food.

    Amazing food! The bread is out of this world and the pastries are divine. As I was leaving they were setting out gorgeous salads.

    On our visit to Milan we came for breakfast at Farins & Cucina at around 9am and the restaurant was…read morestill not open. We hung around for a few minutes yet nothing happened so we decided to head somewhere else as we were on a schedule. Later in the week we decided to give this another try and I am glad we did. This time we got here closer to 11am and the place was buzzing. We were seated promptly along with the menus. I ordered the veggie omelette and it turned out to be really good. Even though we didn't get a chance to try but they have a lot of bakery pastries and sandwiches which most people were taking out and looked pretty yummy. 5 star cafe a couple of minutes walking from the Duomo in Milan. We tried the breakfast and it was awesome.

    Right off the main touristy square on a side street, you will find Farina & Cucina, with windows of…read moresweets that just pull you in. Since we were looking for something other than pasta or pizza, we were pleased to sit and enjoy a meal here. As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were greeted and sat down at our choice of tables. I must have had the biggest eyes ever, as I just couldn't get enough of the pastry shelf....lined with colorful shapely items that I was going to have....after lunch. Ordered our drinks, Ichnusa beer. A regional local beer that is OH SO GOOD. As we made a final decision on our meal...I couldn't have been more pleased. This place offers you many choices, from panni's, to pastas, to hot meals, to pastries, to breads to take away... you name it...they have it. I settled on the chicken in rosemary with grilled veggies and a salad. When they brought out my plate, I was in heaven! The chicken was cut thinly smothered in a rich gravy with grilled eggplant and zucchini with tomatoes. This dish was succulent, with a nice mild taste of rosemary, but the gravy is what did it for me. It was rich in flavor, creamy, and I wanted to pick my plate up and lick it clean....but I didn't. The veggies were lightly grilled with olive oil and mixed well with my meal. I then had to top if off with a few different pastries. I can't tell you the name, I just pointed until I was done. I had a pistachio pastry, a lemon pastry, Nutella filled pastry, and a pistachio filled....all were delicious and devoured. I wish I had time in Milan after finding this place, because I was in love with that chicken dish, and know that I could never recreate it at home. I would definitely go back if in the Milan area again....even if just for the chicken without pastries!
