La Taverna In Milano

11/05/2025: The location is very interesting: from via Povoni you can see an outdoor area which, lately, I seem to understand is only accessible by crossing the entire room from the inside, whereas previously you could enter thanks to the always open gate. From Via Crispi you first pass through the bookshop area where there are mainly new editorial releases of non-fiction and fiction, but also stationery products and some religious articles. Added to these is also a small amount of clothing and a shelf of cosmetic products: I think both are slightly expensive, but in any case I think that this is not the most profitable sales area of ​​the place, not as much as books and the cafeteria. In fact, a little further on, on the left there is first the counter - preceded by the cash register, where you must first get the receipt as it should be - and, then, on the right the internal tables, very well lit because the walls are made of glass, and therefore you can also look out while enjoying your breakfast. The staff are quick and friendly but it seems that some don't want to interact with the customers more than they have to - this can be seen from the fact that, as others before me have said, they tend to talk more to each other than to chat with the customers (except for a few). Nothing unforgivable, they too are working and there is a need for concentration, considering the typical frenzy of this job: however, an extra smile and a sincere interaction with the customer can all in all make the experience better.
