Don Girò In Corsico

27/06/2026: Absolute insider tip! Somewhat secluded from all the hustle and bustle of the downtown metropolis Milano, about 10 minutes on the M3 from the Duomo and easy to reach, the Bar Porto di Mare is an absolutely authentic insider tip that goes against the mainstream. Monday morning. The first regular guests are already standing at the door and waiting to be admitted. At 7 a.m. sharp, Paolo opens his bar Porto di Mare on Via Giovanni Battista Cassinis 13, 20139 Milano. He's been in his bar since 6 a.m. baking fresh croissants. Paolo swings over to the espresso machine and conjures up 4 Caffe Doblo and 2 Caffe Macchiato for his guests in no time while his long-time employee sets up the tables and chairs in the small, covered guest garden on the street. The smell of fresh coffee flows through his small restaurant and transforms even a gray, rainy autumn day into a good-humored start to the day. At lunchtime there is a small selection of hearty, homemade, traditional Italian dishes to suit every palate. You can feel the passion with which Paolo, his wife and his employees have been running the family business with dedication for 15 years (1992). Hospitality is the top priority here. In addition to drinks and food, the bar is also a Bar Tabacchi where you can buy tobacco products, stamps, recharge cards, sweets and chocolate. Even if there is nothing else to do (it is on the way to San Donato, terminus of the M3, a small bazaar), it is always worth a little detour for a fresh croissant with coffee in the morning before starting your tour through the hectic, crowded downtown, or for a traditional, inexpensive lunch in peace. The Bar Porto di Mare adds a positive, authentic touch to the visit to Milan. An absolute must for those who want to experience true Italian authenticity and hospitability. Highly recommended!
