The best bistros and brasseries - Friuli-Venezia Giulia in 2024

Practical information : Take a break Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Timetable

Cafés, tea rooms and gourmet shops (pastry shops and bakeries with tasting rooms) are generally open from morning until late afternoon (Italians love the little pastry shop with espresso around 5-6pm!). Ice cream shops open a little later, around noon, and close in the evening. Bar hours vary: often open at noon in the city, around 5pm elsewhere, they close between 11pm and 3am.

Budget & Tips

An espresso will cost you between 1 € and 1,50 €, count 50 cents more for a cappuccino. In many cafés, you will first go to the cashier where you will be given your stump(scontrino). You can then give it to the barista and drink at the counter. In the more touristy places, you will be charged more for coffee if you are seated on the terrace. A glass of wine is particularly affordable in Friuli Venezia Giulia. While elsewhere in Italy it costs between €3.50 and €7, here you will be served a goblet of local wine - which is excellent, by the way - for €2-3. The glass, however, will be scrupulously filled to 12.5 cl! On the other hand, beer is quite expensive in Italy, especially craft beers which are very popular at the moment. Cocktails are charged between 4 and 8 € on average.

Age restrictions

In Italy, the legal drinking age is 18.

What's very local

Have an espresso at the bar in the morning before going to work. Don't drink cappuccino after 11am (avoid if you don't want to be labelled as a tourist). Meet up with friends in the early evening ataperitivo time.
