A must go to if you are in Milan, a walking distance from the train station and not too close to the centre that you get overwhelmed by the crowd. The coffee here is amazing and the staffs are a sweetheart. They even give you coffee recommendations, we took the Brazilian coffee beans cappuccino and it was amazing. Also their bakery items are equally good. The staff gave was very warm and welcoming vibe. Kudos to the team and keep up the good work

We had a great time here! Coffee was amazing, true specialty coffee! We also tried a sweet croissant and it was really good! Nice cozy coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Our Barista Anderson was friendly and made the whole experience better. Definitely recommend and I will return tomorrow for another Latte! Short walk from Milano Centrale Station.

Stayed in Milan for a week and came here every morning. Excellent coffee and pastries, I recommend the cornetto cubico (pictured). Very clean, very comfortable, with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are polite and friendly, and speak English if needed. They were happy to endure my mediocre Italian and taught me some fun new words! Highly recommended for starting your day or dropping in for a pick-me-up.

Cafezal has multiple locations, the quality and the variety of the coffee is top in all of them. I specifically prefer this one because it's close to Milano Centrale. I had to work for a few hours and there were other people with laptops too. The Internet is obviously very fast. I even bought beans from them and received one coffee for free. They have tasty pastries as well in case your hungry

Big thanks to the lovely staff! The service was fantastic. I offered to buy a sandwich for someone in need, but the kind lady behind the counter refused to take any money from me. Her generosity really touched me. This place isn’t just about great coffee—it’s full of heart. One of the best in Milan!

Very friendly and helpful barista, had the Ethiopian which I prefer as an espresso and it was well extracted and delicious. Cute little place in a nice location with seating outside and a big bathroom. They had lovely cakes but did not try any.
