The café is located near the old city gate of Udine, close to the train station, which is perhaps a 3-minute walk away. I like to go there when I'm traveling by train. The café is something of an institution and is just as popular with locals as it is with tourists. The staff speak English, which is not always the case in Italy.
The service is super friendly and fast. Orders are brought out in lovely arrangements. For example, mineral water comes with a bowl of lemon and orange slices. You can sit outside or inside and enjoy your coffee or Aperol. In any case, the Gran Caffè Friuli has charm. Highly recommended.

High quality and attentive service: aperitifs are always served with fruit, chips, and small sandwiches. Breakfast is also excellent, especially the cakes, which are fabulous. The bartenders and waiters are friendly and helpful. The prices are slightly higher than average, but the experience is well worth it. Highly recommended.

Excellent selection of vegan brioches, and the one with maple syrup and walnuts was very good.
The almond milk cappuccino wasn't exactly good.

Very nice cafe, away from the busy road, with excellent pastries, and a friendly service. Indoor and outdoor seating, but have no air conditioning. They keep the doors open and there were a lot of flies inside. The brioche’s are freshly made, and the coffee was very good.
Recommended.

Early in the morning the coffee is perfect as are the freshly baked croissants.
Old-fashioned service, highly recommended
