Pasticceria Bastianello

Born and bred Milanese come to this classic cafe for fresh pastries and coffee with friends. First opened in the 1930s, Pasticceria Bastianello became famous for its bread rolls and coffee with whipped cream. Now in a new location, it's never empty despite prices that are far from cheap.

We recommend: brioche with Nutella, ice-cream (a must-try)

Atmosphere: aristocratic bakery

The crowd: Local designers, celebrities, and fashion industry insiders who flock to Milan for Fashion Week.

Key info: The spirit of old, bourgeois Milan hangs in the air.
