One of the oldest bars in Venice, we came here and enjoyed some cicchetti. We were feeling daring and tried the octopus, sardines, cod, and a few others. The meatball and fried carne were delicious. We had four glasses of wine and about 8 cicchetti and spent about 25 euros. The bartender with the piercing was super friendly and helped us picked his favorite choices. He was very kind even though we didn't speak any Italian. We would definitely come back here again read more

According to our food tour guide, this is the oldest baceria in Venice. The bread for their mini sandwiches is homemade and so soft, full of flavor. Great spot to stop grab a little bite and a drink! read more

We rented an apartment for two weeks one summer a few blocks away from here. This Cicchetti (tapas, snacks) bar, the oldest in Venice, is a short way from the market, it is a classic. A lot of the market workers ended up here when they were finished working. It is a little difficult to find as it has no sign and the addresses in Venice make no sense. It is small, with low heavy wood beamed ceilings that are not much taller than me, not very much light and there is no place to sit. Other than that it is great. I would go shopping in the market in the morning for dinner and stop by for a few snacks and a glass or two of wine. They always had several great bottles of white on ice in a big copper bucket. It felt so completely decadent because it was always well before noon. I imagined I was living like a real Venetian. BTW, ALL of the Cicchetti here are GREAT. read more

My wife found Cantina Do Mori after doing a search of local wine bars in Venice. It is a little off of the tourist beaten path but I highly recommend checking it out. It has been open since 1462 and although ownership has not remained within a single family the layout and design have been kept in tact. There aren't any tables to sit at however there is some bar style seating available along the back wall. There is a wide selection of wine available to try as well as some freshly prepared snacks to pair alongside. We tried the Nozzole La Forra Chianti and a couple of the snacks were very impressed. Definitely a must see place if you enjoy wine and want to experience an authentic Venetian establishment read more

Great little Venetian wine bar with a lot of history. Came in with my wife on a day when the fog was so bad in Venice it practically shut the city down. To be clear, we came in here as they opened at 8am. We ordered some wine and sat on some bar stools to escape the cold. As their runner ran down the block to the Rialto fish market, their famous cicchetti began to put together and on display behind the bar. Some great choices of snacks with some good selections of wine that won't drain your wallet. If you are daring, try the fresh whole baby octopus read more

Finger food! Everything we had was delish! Cash only so be sure to bring those Euros. Close to Rialto Bridge and not excessively crowded even during the Tuesday Noon hour. No seats- standing at bar or on the ledges around the edges. Some places outside to stand and eat outside one of the doors, including a barrel. Two drinks and two platters full of items for 38 euros... not bad! read more

Great wine, finger foods on toothpicks and small sandwiches. Guy there not the friendliest, but he was playing heavy metal in the kitchen... I understood. Sardines on bread, cheeses, octopus, tuna and ham sandwich were great. I'd rather fill up here than lot of other places. They close 8, right after ciesta, and isn't easy to find. Keep it simple and move on. read more

Cantina Do Mori - Cicchetti - Wine Bars Near Me - Venezia, VE

We had a blast eating little sandwiches in this medieval feeling wine bar. The bar man was really nice, the atmosphere great, the food delicious, and the wine delightful. We loved this one so much that after visiting a different wine bar we came back for the rest of our evening. It is hard to find, but keep looking. It is definitely worth the time and effort! read more

Great little place for wine, prosecco and chichetti. The clientele seems to be a mixture of tourists - of course - but also locals. Some of whom enter through one door, knock back a blanc and exit through the other door, all without seeming to break stride! Definitely worth seeking out (not far from Rialto) for a (slightly) more authentic local cichetti experience. And I think those are all old water buckets hanging from the ceiling! read more

Great spot for some local Cicchetti and wines. Staff super helpful. Love the dim lit warm vibe inside. read more

This bacaro was recommened in a few guide books and artcles that I had read and so we were keen to visit it to get a feel for the Venetian way of life. That is the activity of going to a bar, standing and drinking wine, and eating cichetti (tapas like snacks). We were determined to find it on our first night, and wandered about in the rain for a good while, meandering between the crumbling walls and snaking up and down the endlessly confusing narrow streets before he said 'Why don't we just go here instead?' and of course, the place we were standing next to was actually the place we had been trying to find for 20 minutes. We wondered in, it wasn't very busy but these place are so small that as soon as a group of 3 shows up there's a party atmosphere. I ordered 2 glasses of prosecco (a local and persoanl favourite) for E2.50 each. See what I mean about nowhere being expensive if you live in London? £2 for a glass of prosecco in London would be a struggle to find. Anyway, we stood drinking our prosecco and watching as people came in and ordered at the bar and ate various cichetti (which we were not brave enough to order, despite looking very tasty) and then had our glasses filled again before paying and wondering off into the rainy night to find a restaurant. We came back a further 2 times, the 3rd time the barman short-changed me, which was annoying as it was busy and I had to call him back to tell him he'd given me change for 10 when I'd given a 20 but then he overcharged me when he rectified it. Annoying. However, I would still recommend this as an excellent place to get a taste of the Venetian night life style. read more

The Cantina Do Mori is one of the best places for cicchetti that we found in all our wanderings around Venice. Something of a local landmark, this ancient bar has charm in abundance and is a welcome respite from the tourist hustle and bustle of nearby Rialto Bridge. It's standing room only but that just adds to the atmosphere and I would recommend a visit on weekday around noon or 5pm to get a real feel for the place when it is teaming with all sorts of local characters and traders from the fish market you will also get the best selection of the many different types of snacks on offer. Like many of these types of bars it closes early at 8pm. If you are not in the mood for a full on meal or you want to stretch your budget out a carefully chosen plate of tasty snacks will keep you going all night. Nothing will cost more than 2EUR and most are 1EUR. The wine selection is also very good with something to suit all tastes and budgets. If you want to see where the likes of Polpo and Polpette in London took their inspiration from this would be a good place to start. read more

Slightly difficult to locate. Nice decor. Food was ok. For the price would have expected more. Plates were warm. Not the best. Not the worst. read more

I have been to the Cantina on every visit to Venice - It has real atmosphere and wont rip you off. There is a great selection of wines and cichetti but the house white gies great with a couple of crab's claws and wont break the bank. It's a little hard to find but only a minute from the Rialto bridge. If you want to experience real Venice forget Harry's Bar and their poncy waiters, overpriced bellinis and ZERO atmosphere head for a traditional wine bar, osteria or cantina and be treated like a human being and not a tourist. Awesome, can't wait until next time! read more

This place is fantastic! Friendly staff, great bites, and affordable drinks. The atmosphere is rustic and energetic. It seems to be busy in waves, and even when busy, does not disappoint. Highly recommend! read more

Must stop.. excellent service and great snacks, wine, and atmosphere. Of the Bars of this sort, this was our favorite.

Do Mori is decent but on balance I prefer other places based both on price and local ambiance. You can't go wrong here but it has become less "Local" over the years & I've been spending a significant amount of time in Venezia over the past 35 years. read more

My husband and I love to find unique, less touristy things to do when we travel. I found this place through yelp and read all the helpful reviews before we went. We had fun getting "lost" trying to locate this place and once we found it, we realized that it's really not that hard to find, we just took a wrong turn! The cicchetti and wine are great and the history is amazing! Pierre was very helpful and we felt very comfortable. Highly recommended. read more

We were just looking for a shot and a beer. So glad my son chose this place for its obvious ambience. We each had a glass of a local Pinot Grigio which was so delightfully fruity and different we are going back tomorrow! read more

My husband and I wanted to visit a cicchetti bar while in Venice, so we figured we should go to the oldest and most renowned. This place did not disappoint. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded when we arrived, and my initial hesitation due to not knowing how it worked was quickly dispelled when a friendly and charming barman explained what to do and poured us generous glasses of Prosecco and Pinot Grigio. Two glasses each and two plates filled with an assortment of cheeses, sausage, and other local specialties savored in a historical, cozy bar only set us back €28, and we were so satisfied we didn't even need dinner later - just a stop at a pasticceria for espresso/drinking chocolate and a small treat each - but that's pretty much mandatory. Anyway, come here hungry and thirsty, pull up a stool and enjoy a tradition that has been part of Venice for hundreds of years. read more

It's a great before dinner place to grab some wine and tapas. Yes, I know, this is Italy and not Spain , but same idea. Great atmosphere and good staff. Seating is extremely limited. It is a very small place and maybe you stand. That's how these places are with good prices. Just enjoy it for what it is. Salute! read more

One of the world's great bars. It is dark, with copper pots hanging from the ceiling. One bar, two entrances. Wine everywhere. You nip in and rest your feet while you have a slurp. They have little bar snacks. When I went with a mate in 2011 the barman seemed a bit miserable, but he was fighting off a smirk the third time we went for another glass of red. It is beautiful, small, old and very very inviting. read more

The finger foods are not as good as they look so don't over order! Just get a drink and enjoy the old ambiance. This is the place on Anthony Bourdain's show. read more

Bad experience, the Owner Nd waiter is not respectful with his clients, i never seen that in my life. No respect, and the wine does not taste good. The food is not fresh, so be carreful. Don t go there or try and see by yourself. read more

tricky to find---near the fish market but on a side street. Cool decor and good and attentive staff (speak english). Bites are around 2 euros each. read more

Quaint, homely, excellent wine selection and service. Above all, non- touristy. What more can one want?! This place was the highlight of my Venice trip (said by a spoiled New Yorker) read more

Loved this place!!! The vibe was amazing, the selection of small bites was wide and the quality superb. I had an onion and anchovy appetizer that was sensational, but they were all equally delicious....just try a bunch!Tasty wine that didn't cost a lot coupled with the delicious food made this a perfect stopping point. I only wish the folks I was with would have wanted to stay longer and dig in more because the place they sent us for dinner paled in comparison to this little gem. read more
