Amalfi CoastCafes

Pasticceria Pansa has anchored Piazza del Duomo in Amalfi since 1830. The marble-topped café spills onto the square, shaded by the cathedral's shadow in the morning hours. Terracotta tones and old glass cases filled with lemon-glazed pastries set the scene before you even sit down.

La Zagara opens into a shaded garden beneath fragrant citrus trees. Painted tiles, white tables, and a bright pastry counter create a polished sanctuary. Aromatic specialty coffee offers a quiet pause from Positano’s crowded center.

This quiet sanctuary sits on a stone terrace overlooking the blue waters of Praiano. The scent of dark roasted beans fills the warm coastal breeze every morning. Guests gather on the open terrace facing the tiled dome of San Gennaro. It feels like a calm harbor away from the crowded tourist routes.

Pasticceria Sal De Riso sits in Minori, a quiet town tucked into the Amalfi Coast. The interior is polished and compact, with glass cases displaying immaculate cakes, chocolate confections, and cream-filled pastries. Espresso arrives short and precise, served as the natural counterpoint to desserts built on local citrus and fresh dairy.

Bar Internazionale feels like Positano’s lived-in sitting room near Chiesa Nuova. Dark espresso, polished counters, and street chatter create a relaxed sanctuary.

Perched on a steep cliffside in Praiano, this small cafe serves as a quiet sanctuary above the Tyrrhenian Sea. The aroma of freshly roasted beans mixes with the salty breeze from the coast below. Guests sit on a simple stone terrace while watching the waves crash against the rocks.

Bar Santa Rosa glows with a warm, inviting evening allure. Patrons gather on its panoramic terrace, enjoying spectacular coastal views. Lively conversations mingle with carefully curated ambient music. The gentle scent of the sea drifts on the warm Mediterranean air.
