We really liked this coffee shop, even though it was packed to the rafters both times we stopped by. The space is narrow and feels a bit more claustrophobic than it likely is in reality because the back wall is stacked from floor to ceiling with merchandise, and the space opposite it is the counter. There's a narrow strip that's just wide enough for a human to pass through before bumping up against the teeny tiny tables that are shoved up against the wall o' merch. Despite all that, we liked the vibe of the place. It's loud and crowded and chaotic, yes (and this was even during "shoulder season", I can't imagine what the place looks like in the high season!) But the staff was incredibly friendly, the patrons - lots of locals, from the way they interacted with staff and slammed their espresso - were accommodating and the drinks were hot and expertly made. The first round of drinks - on our first trip - didn't take too long to get crafted and served. But on our second stop, my husband made the mistake of ordering a pour-over coffee, which the nice man at the counter said they could do, but it'd be a bit longer. Boy howdy, was he not wrong. It took almost 10 minutes for his drink to come out, and the guy kept giving us updates to let us know we hadn't been forgotten. We were fine with waiting - it was a no-activity day for us - but I did feel like I was getting in other people's way just standing like a lump near the door. The coffees are good and strong, and decently priced, though, and they have an expansive menu that goes beyond coffees, to teas and pastries and beyond. We never got the chance to try anything more than their bean juice, but had we been in the city longer, we might have gone back for more. read more

Incredible coffee shop with a variety of teas and coffees to buy, as well as drinks and delicious pastries. The owner and staff were all very friendly and welcoming and remembered us when we came back. They also grind their coffee for you to take home and I was able to get some espresso and french press blends for gifts. They have coffee tins as well which make great gifts. The croissants were the best we had in Italy too! Definitely recommend. read more

Finally found the best espresso on this trip! Made a day trip to Milano and this was the highlight of my food stops there. read more

Caffettiera Borsari - Guilette - Cafeteria Near Me - Verona, VR

Multo multo buona! The espresso is strong but not bitter at all, the definition of coffee to me. The croissants were delicate and flavorful. The atmosphere was the best that Italy has to offer. 4 small tables in a wonderful little shop frequented by locals. Loved it! read more

Borsari is just the quintessential Italian coffee shop you hope to find on a visit in Verona. The staff was great and along with all the locals who were non stop ordering, one can't help but to love the place. The interior is worth a stop by itself to see and if you do stay for a cappuccino, seats are small. But who cares. You're have a great time! read more

Read the reviews. They're all true. Just an outstanding caffe, the chocolate is heavenly, sweet but not overwhelming. If you're in Verona, you need to come here. read more

This is one of the best coffee places I've ever been to in the US or Europe. Small, quaint and unassuming coffee shop off the main shopping strip in Verona, Italy. Only a few small tables and two lovely ladies who make everything from scratch. My absolutely most favorite hot chocolate in the world is here! Literally melted chocolate with fresh homemade whip cream. I also love their own coffee - I always buy a bag or two as gifts for coffee lover (supremo). don't miss an opportunity to have coffee or any other drink here. Amazing. read more

Caffe Borsari was my best find during my time in Italy. It's this small, cute cafe where the locals have coffee and catch up with each other. The cafe is small with four tiny marble tables, but for that reason, many people drink at the bar. The coffee is the best I've had and the pastries, particularly the chocolate croissant and the croissant filled with cream, are totally worth the splurge. They are heavenly. Also, it's much cheaper than any other place I've visited - €2.60 for a cappuccino and a croissant!!! But brush up on your Italian - no English is spoken here, which is part of the charm. I am absolutely coming back here (I've been twice already) the next time I'm in Verona. read more

Amazing coffee, hot chocolate and pastries with equally great atmosphere. Cozy and communal, definitely a local favorite and now one of mine also. Fun collection of Disney and other fairy tale dolls and collectibles also. read more

Absolutely the best maroccino in Verona. Great brioches. Very pleasant people. Highly recommended for lighter breakfast. Will come back again and again! read more
