05/10/2025: A bit too crowded, that's the only reason why I'm only giving it a 4 star review. Other than that, it was just fine - a friendly staff, quality of the coffee was excellent (I've tried the Espresso from the "Women in Coffee" initiative). I like the Vergnano coffee and if you don't mind a bit busier and touristy place, it is an OK spot in the city center to have a coffee and maybe a little snack.
02/10/2025: CAFFÈ VERGNANO 1882 is located in the historic center of Turin, at Via Giuseppe Luigi Lagrange 3, an elegant shopping street lined with luxury boutiques and 19th-century buildings.
HISTORY:
The Vergnano coffee roasting company was founded in 1882 near Turin by the Vergnano family, starting with a small shop.
Over time, the business grew, gradually becoming a full-fledged company.
The first coffee shop, like this one, opened in 2000, with the visionary intention of being an ambassador for Italian espresso around the world, thanks to its slow, artisanal roasting.
A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE:
Walking along this beautiful street, I was drawn to this place. Upon entering, I appreciated the minimalist furnishings, with unique lighting and wooden details, reminiscent of old-fashioned shops, in keeping with ancient tradition.
I then had the opportunity to enjoy an excellent breakfast at the outdoor tables, with an espresso and croissant.
FUN FACT: DID YOU KNOW THAT...?
A few steps away, we can visit the Egyptian Museum and Palazzo Carignano, home of the first Italian Parliament.
