This bar is located in the historic center of Trieste and has been around for over 10 years now…read more It's not very big inside, but it has a nice big outdoor patio, right in the always crowded Piazza Cavana, which makes it an ideal pot for people watching! It's open for breakfast lunch and dinner, but we normally go for their HH. Before the covid pandemic they used to offer a huge buffet (which was free of charge, as long as you ordered at least a drink). Because of covid precautions they unfortunately removed the buffet, but they still give you small bites with your drink. (I'm still hoping the buffet will be back one day: the food was really good!) The staff is always very efficient and friendly.

Nondescript exterior, and you can easily miss it walking by, but outside is a chalkboard beer list,…read more and inside is a cozy, intimately lit, wood-centered, welcoming beer bar that is completely top notch. The owner is dedicated to quality quaff, and really knows his stuff. The day I went the beer list ranged from local brew to Belgians (Chimay; Boon Lambic). I noticed Westvleteren glassware, and asked about it, and indeed he has something in the cellar to match. Didn't try the food, but you can check out the reviews on their Facebook-based website. Hard to find a better and more dedicated beer temple than this, and the personal knowledge and service beats the more standard street scene places hands down.

It's a very small bar, but one of my favorite stops in Trieste. Located in Piazza San Giovanni, it…read moreis very close to Piazza Goldoni, a main hub for buses and it's in downtown so easy to walk to from wherever you are in the city. They also have a window you can order wine at (yeah, think Little Havana in Miami, only here you order very good wine instead of empanadas) and some tables outside where you can sit, sip your wine and do a little people watching. Nice place to chill after a long walk in the city; they have very good wines, price are reasonable and they always give you a little complementary food with your glass, a couple of slices of salami or prosciutto or whatever they have. Sometimes when I am back in Trieste, I sit there, outside, enjoy 2 glasses of wine and let memories of my many years spent in my hometown occupy my mind.

This is a small bar right in the center of the city, on a street that is basically just for taxis…read moreand buses: I would be surprise if in this area you will find a parking spot even if you use a moped! We can't go back to Trieste as much as we'd like, but we do stop here every time we're there! To order you can go inside, or you can do it through a window on the busy sidewalk. You can enjoy your drink (they offer full bar) inside at the counter (there is no room for tables) or by sitting at one of the few high tables outside: they are a great spot to relax and people watching! They have a great selection of wines, and every drink is accompanied by a few small tapas. The staff is great and prices are decent. I look forward to going back!

Very typical Italian trattoria for the area. White tablecloth place that you will want to be…read moredressed nice to come to. Smallish with about 18 tables. We only speak English and they very nicely had an English language menus. Prices for local wines seemed pretty low to us. Very nice and local seafood. Lots of home made pasta selections. It was a truffle special time for the menu. Truffles are not what we really enjoy, so we ordered of the regular menu which was very good. Two price fix options. One with 4 courses for €49 and a larger one with seven courses for more. We were told this restaurant won a local cooking competition among local places.

Puro has been open about 6 months - new on the Trieste dining scene but worth a visit. The decor is…read morequite attractive and you can see what's going on in the kitchen - it's behind glass and totally visible to diners. I had the Fuzi Istriani which is a very interesting traditional dish - the pasta is made with red wine instead of water, and you can definitely taste that it is fatto a mano. My wife had the fishburger which was made of salmon and my friend had riso which was sprinkled with botarga. Both enjoyed their choices. The service was a tad slow but worth the wait. The bathrooms are spotless and very attrractively done. I'd give it a solid 4 1/2 stars - absolutely worth a try.
