An excellent place in the heart of Alassio, with a historic and elegant interior. Outside, there's a lovely outdoor terrace with lovely tables and chairs, as well as some swings and sofas. The atmosphere is refined, and the service is professional and fairly fast.
The croissants and cappuccinos are delicious, and the prices are reasonable for the location (7.50 for two cappuccinos and two croissants).
You absolutely must try the Baci di Alassio (Baci di Alassio), which have the original ones, as well as much more: chocolate, pastries, candy, etc.

The place is extremely fine, elegant and refined. Excellent in the bar version, (excellent for example the squeezed juices, excellent quality fruit juices), excellent in the ice cream version (delicious for example the chocolate milkshakes) and sublime in the pastry version: in this regard, it is impossible not to try the "iconic" kisses of Alassio, symbol of the "city of the wall" in the world. Exquisite and praiseworthy, also, the way of welcoming the owner, Mr. Carlomaria Balzola and family and all his very precious collaborators. Highly recommended!!!

Very nice historic bar both outside, where we usually sit, and inside.
We tried coffee, cappuccinos and chocolates and freshly squeezed orange juice, served with a welcome meringue to accompany it. Tip: make the cappuccino thicker and frothier. Good croissants.

Café and pastry shop in the center of Alassio. Historic, refined and exclusive environment. Shop and breakfast room with antique furniture and chandeliers. Here you can find all the typical desserts of the city of Alassio. We recommend purchasing Alassio kisses in this establishment because they are truly exquisite. Breakfast with high quality croissants and impeccable service. The toilets should be modernised. Very recommended!

Locale storico e per noi obbligatoria la tappa “Baci” da Balzola. Sono tanti ormai i locali che li propongono ma i loro “originali” sono deliziosi!

Una porción de la historia que data de 1902 y todavía en el negocio. Francamente, hemos estado visitando Alassio durante más de 40 años y los hemos evitado estudiosamente. Quizás, basado en cierta inteligencia local y nuestras propias observaciones de escaparates que son ornamentados pero nunca parecen cambiar. Aun así, uno debe hacer sus propias conclusiones.
El interior de la sala de café / té es prácticamente un museo y debe ser apreciado por su ambiente. La bienvenida es genuina y el café es bueno, aunque no genial. No probamos los pasteles o helado en este viaje. Quizás en otro momento. En el corazón del budello es un vínculo vital con diferentes épocas. Sigue siendo parte de la escena de Alassio/
