Gran Malabar In Trieste

Excellent choice of wines and more!

A nice little spot to enjoy a drink. We sat inside, but there was a seating area outside. Our wines were delicious and very reasonably priced. The bar man also gave us a side plate of bread, cheese and prosciutto to pair with your wines. Also a wide variety of wines and other drinks to choose from.

We spent a day in Trieste and took a short drink break here. May I ask what the secret ingredient of the Hugo Spritz was? I would be very interested. I've never had such a good Ugo Spritz in my life. Absolute recommendation

Very nice selection of regional wines located in a wonderful little place

Excellent choice of wines. Kindness and courtesy. Absolutely worth trying

Die Bar Gran Malabar, oder wie die Triestiner sagen, das Mala, oder die Malabar ist immer einen Besuch wert. Das kleine Lokal hat einst Geschichte geschrieben und die teils beeindruckenden Leistungen der Winzer der Region in die Welt getragen. Für alte Stammgäste wie mich ist es natürlich traurig, dass Walter und Mario mittlerweile im Ruhestand sind, aber zumindest Mario ist noch sehr dahinter, und es geht kaum ein Tag, an dem er nicht nach dem Rechten schaut. Die Nachfolger kommen großteils aus der alten Mannschaft, und sie machen einen ausgezeichneten Job. Die angebotenen Produkte variieren, nach wie vor gibt es kleine Snacks und immer noch Getränke al banco, man kann sie sich aber auch servieren lassen (dann kostet, wie in Italien durchaus üblich - alle Produkte um 1€ mehr. Nach wie vor ist die Malabar ein Fixpunkt der Stadt, die Atmosphäre ist immer noch einzigartig und die Produkte vorzüglich.

I went there as a teenager... I don't like wine... I'm a teetotaler but I remember the sandwiches that Mario, Walter and Adriana "toasted" for me. A delicacy. I still remember some historic clients: Mrs. Ilnea (always had two little Perchinese dogs), Mrs. Nerina (who was envied for her 2-carat solitaire and jokingly mocked for her yellow 500 L, Mrs. Nives always elegantly dressed in a suit style Jessica Fletcher, and Mrs. Fioretta with her husband Roberto who were always very kind to me, like all the staff.. we're talking about at least 24 years ago. But I still have a pleasant I remember Some people are no longer here today but I think it's nice to remember them with this post

Excellent wine shop. Wide choice of wines and extra assistance in choosing them. But those who drink coffee are also happy. Vast outdoor space, covered by an awning. Worth visiting.

Very often I have coffee or eat something here. Inside the bar is always crowded, but there are tables outside and I prefer to sit there. Sometimes you have to wait more than 5 minutes for the staff to notice people. But I like it anyway. The only thing I would like is that they ask you if I need a chair cushion. But! Let's start the new year with a smile and positivity! Rating 5♥️

Perfect for a quick stop with a good wine. I had this amazing Gewürztraminer.
