Torrefazione Cannaregio
You’re in serious coffee territory here. If you're not an avid coffee drinker, you might be surprised to find out how many different coffees derive from all over the world, and how each has its own aroma and flavour profile.
Caffe Florian
As a first-timer to Venice, you will want to stop by Florian, whether just to take a photo or to enjoy their famous hot chocolate and blueberry torta, whilst taking in the entertainers on the nearby Piazza San Marco.
Sallalluna
This is the sort of place you just want to lounge in, whether browsing the books or sipping a carefully crafted latte. Beautiful and bright, it offers a vegetarian menu that caters for vegans too, as well as delicious coffee.
Caffè del Doge
A great place to enjoy a coffee, this is a local favourite known for its excellent brews. When it comes to the beans, it offers everything from single-bean specialities to blends that are roasted in-house, highlighting unique flavours that can’t be found elsewhere.
Gelatoteca Suso
Everything about this gelateria, from the sleek black-and-red uniforms of its employees to the pristine storefront, evokes a high-quality experience. And that’s precisely what you’ll get here; two dozen flavours ranging from classics like stracciatella to more unique offerings, like Mascarpone with figs and walnuts.
Pasticceria Dal Mas
Dal Mas is a one-of-a-kind, family-run pastry shop in the heart of Venice that has been serving up authentic Italian desserts for generations. Their famous almond slices (better known locally as amaretti) are sure to delight even the most discerning taste buds.
