Metropolitan Cafè In Genova

Good coffee and beautiful place outside to drink service was very fast and nett.

Nice place, in a quiet area, despite the Alpine troops gathering. Very friendly staff. We had delicious trofie with pesto and their homemade tart. The wait time is reasonable, depending on what you order. The trofie took just the right amount of time to cook. The prices are average; I don't know how much we spent, because we were guests of a very dear friend. Recommended if you want a quiet meal and good food.

It's hard to find a more Ligurian bar than this, especially when it comes to service. The supposed owner is perpetually annoyed, unlike a beach club surrounded by Milanese residents in August. To pay, you have to catch his attention; to order, you have to wave your arms as if you were drowning in the open sea. The welcome is zero: authentic Ligurian hospitality. After getting a few snorts for daring to ask for a slightly more complex cocktail than average, when it finally arrives, you're almost surprised: it's not awful; in fact, it's actually good. The aperitif is decidedly generous, so much so that it almost makes you forget the human experience you've had up until that moment.
