Practical information : Take a break Sicily
Timetable
Cafés are generally open very early, with early-morning workers lounging at the zinc to gulp down a ristretto before heading out. Bars close at the same times as in France, but bar-clubs much later.
Budget & Tips
Bars are less expensive than in France, with a good cocktail costing between €5 and €8, but some bars charge similar prices to Paris, in the €12 range. Coffee is also well-priced throughout Sicily, and it's bound to be good, whether you take it ristretto, corto or largo (strong, short or long).
Age restrictions
In Italy, bars are open to people aged 18 and over.
What's very local
Bars offer aperitivo formulas with appetizers, bruschettas, eggplant caviar, breadsticks.... or a buffet, included in the price of your cocktail. Enoteca are wine bars that usually also have a food menu.
Smokers
In bars, outdoor terraces are generally open to smokers.
