Reviews on Cafe food in Vernazza, Liguria, Italy. With Cinque Terre’s only proper harbor, Vernazza has a long history as a fishing village. While there is a small beach, sightseeing is more common in this astoundingly beautiful cliffside town. Highlights include the 16th-century Belforte Tower (which offers incredible views of the area), the 11th-century Doria Castle and the 14th-century Santa Margherita d'Antiochia church. It involves a steep hike, but the shrine at Nostra Signora Di Reggio (Our Lady of Reggio) is well worth it.

10. Old School Riomaggiore Gelateria & Snack Shop

A fresh new gelateria with traditional roots. Handcrafted gelato, southern-italian pasteries, freshly made juice & more served with a view of the town and sea. We dress to impress in italian style with a twist while great tunes play on our retro speakers.

Darn, I stayed in Riomaggiore three days and only discovered this on my last afternoon. This is some of the best gelato Iâve tried in Italy to date. The shop is small and unassuming and the range is perhaps about 16 flavours - too many for me make my mind up quickly. I dithered over several delicious looking flavours and finally settled on cheesecake and fragola (strawberry). One lick and I was sold! Iâd just come from walking the Cinque Terre trails and was hungry and this so hit the spot. Each of them was so luscious and together they made a delicious dessert.The young woman who served me was patient as I took time over my choice and then served me the most memorable gelato in a delicious crunchy waffle cone. They top it off with a little circle of waffle which you can use like a spoon - I so approve of the âno plasticâ option.And theyâre one of the cheaper options too at 3 euro for a very decent-sized serve. I so wish I could go back for more.

Today we walked from Corniglia to Manorola via Valostra. We stopped at Valostra for lunch - lucky for us we managed to grab the last 6 seats at Trattoria LâArcobaleno.We enjoyed local wine from the vineyards of Valostra and one of the best meals in Italy so far. 2 of us thoroughly enjoyed the linguini agli scampi. I was devine. From start to finish a superb experience ending with espresso and grappa. Grazia mille Roberto and co. Thoroughly recommend this place 100%

I visited MG bar for lunch with my husband and a friend while on vacation from North Carolina. The employees there were very warm and friendly. They even helped me practice my Italian! We had pizza and pasta with pesto. Both were delicious! Definitely worth visiting this bar!!

We sat down for drinks, and the waiter there must be the nicest waiter in all of Italy! He spoke good English and was super attentive! We didnât eat, so Iâm not sure how the food is. But the plates brought to other guest looked good.

We visited Ananasso Bar for lunch and a few drinks today. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. I ordered a pesto & tomato bruschetta (â¬5â¬) which was tasty and a good size. My wife ordered the pesto pinsa, sort of a cross between a focaccia and a pizza (â¬12). Again it was very tasty and probably for sharing really. There was quite a lot of oil from the pesto but it tasted very nice. Our drinks were nice. Prices were reasonable and there was no cover charge. Overall, a great place to people watch with a lovely view of the harbour in Vernazza. Thank you again and back to visit us

Wow, we visited Corniglia today and stopped at this place for lunch. My husband had gnocchi, I had pesto lasagna, one daughter had focaccia with mozzarella, tomato and lettuce and my other daughter had penne pasta. All meals were a good portion and absolutely delicious. The lady who served us was so nice and with three cokes and one beer it came to â¬40 euros. I can honestly say this is the best meal we have had in Cinque Terre.

The perfect light lunch at our hike from Monterosso- Florence- the owner - so warm and friendly. Her family surrounds her with older grandchildren helping bus tables etc. Salad was delicious with a light honey dressing. We licked the plate clean:) the outdoor seating was lovely with a nice breeze and ocean view- no credit cards

We found this restaurant by following the main thoroughfare to the Corniglia viewpoint, and their outdoor seating is the southern part of the viewpoint terrace. You actually pass by the door on your way to the viewpoint. We got to the viewpoint and saw folks enjoying good looking food, and sat down. The service was great, and the food was as well. The view here is spectacular, if I had any complaints it would be the number of tourists flowing past at midday to enjoy the view making this spot a little less tranquil.

We rented an airbnb from Christiana, who owns and runs Pan e Vin Bar. What a wonderful host and cafe. If you can, sit outside to people watch and just take in the view of the beautiful spot. The breakfast was so good. The juice was squeezed on the spot. The croissants, baked goods, and bread delicious as well. Just a charming spot perfect for breakfast, lunch, or quick refresher.

Needed a takeaway coffee and found the lunchbox slightly off the beaten track. Great, kind service from both people inside and outside. Coffee made quickly and liked their request not to use takeaway cups if sitting down. Great tasting coffee, cappuccino was perfect. Loved the positive experience.
