LAURUS | cocktails in style
The ultimate cocktail bar in town, serves ourstanding drinks in a warm, romantic, welcoming ambience. They really know what they are doing.
Designed with a nice vintage feel, the space looks really good too: I like to hang at the desk but I don’t mind the cozy back-room with sofas, also the outside area in the neo-classic piazzetta is lovely.
I’m not myself a big fan of cocktails, but frankly when I visit Laurus I want more and more. Over summer find them in Gallpoli as well, where they took out the bar at the prestigious Palazzo Presta hotel

IL BANCO | jazz & wine
I love this micro wine bar ran by two brothers, set in a narrow street nearby the church of Santa Croce. The formula “simple but well done” seems really working here: the mix of intriguing interiors, notable wines, fine cheese and excellent meats make it definitely worth a visit.
They play terrific jazz too, with their live winter sessions setting the whole neighbour on fire every thursday night.

IL BARROCCIO | drinks & music
Everybody in town know this simple kiosk with tons of tables outside, where tens of people from the most desparate backgrounds gather noon to late night for coffe, cocktaills & Ipa beers to the sound of truly great music.
Theyr weekly live jams attract massive crowds, it can turn big fun. No table service, it is all basic and unpretentious here.
