Pasticceria Cova

Historic 1817 patisserie on Via Montenapoleone serving gold-dusted panettone and fashion-week clientele

Address Via Monte Napoleone 8, 20121 Milan
Opening Hours Mon–Sat 08:00–20:00; Sun 10:00–19:00

A historic patisserie and tearoom founded in 1817 on Via Monte Napoleone, Milan's most famous fashion street. Famous for its millefoglie, panettone, and some of the best espresso in the city. The interior — marble counters, mirrored walls, and immaculate service — has changed little since the 19th century.

More expensive than a typical bar, but this is a Milanese institution. Come for a mid-morning coffee and pastry rather than a full meal.
