Illy Caffè Ponterosso

Via Gioachino Rossini 2, Trieste (TS) · Italia

Our editorial review

A few metres from Ponte Rosso and the canal, this address is the most direct way to taste Illy’s blend and single origins in the city where they were born. Extraction is precise, service knowledgeable, and the price slightly above average, in line with the positioning. The room is bright and tidy: the right choice if you want a reference coffee rather than a neighbourhood bar.
