Just a few meters from our building, Fava's is definitely the best bar in the neighborhood and among the best in town. Great spot for breakfast and a quick lunch. It closes at 20.00.

One of the most popular drink bars of Palermo. It’s just around the corner. Nice spot with a great selection of wines and beers. If you are hungry you can eat something there or move to the near PPP burger.

A classic. Bar with tables inside and outside in the middle of the most elegant pedestrian street of the city center. Spinnato is not just for drinks. It’s nice to sit outside (or inside when you need air conditioning) for breakfast or for a quick lunch. We particularly recommend their fruit ice creams (anguria, gelso nero, fragola…) which are really good and delicate.

Isgrò is a famous fish seller inside the Capo Market who recently opened a trattoria where you can eat delicious fish dishes. Our guests love it.

Our favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. It is small with really good food. Born as a gluten free restaurant, they now have any kind of menu. We like their fish dishes. The location is nice but it’s nothing you will remember. It is not the cheapest choice but our guests like it a lot.

Best hamburgers in the neighborhood (somebody says it is the best in town). Great selections of Sicilian meat. If you want to try something local we suggest you their "Salsiccia burger” or the “Maialino nero dei Nebrodi"

“Hidden inside a little courtyard off Via Ruggero Settimo, this long-standing Palermitan favourite specialised in low-cost snacks, including delicious arancinette (rice balls filled with meat sauce) and divine panzerotti (stuffed fried dough pockets). The latter come in countless delectable varieties: ricotta and mint, squash blossoms and cheese, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes and anchovies, just to name a few” (excerpt from the Lonely Planets.

An Osteria with good fish dishes. In March 2018 their chef won the national tv show “Cuochi d’Italia”. It is not always easy to find a table.

Opened in 2018, Cuma is a “green bar”. A nice designed environment with a vast selections of salads, sandwiches, centrifuges. Fresh food with quality ingredients. It doesn’t have a Sicilian touch but we like it for a quick lunch in the city center.

A patisserie famous for the "Setteveli" (seven-layer chocolate cake) which they imported in Palermo and brought to success (but not invented as many guides say). Not to be missed is the dreamy delizia di pistacchio, a granular pistachio cake topped with creamy icing and a chocolate medallion.
