3 Best Nightlife in Duomo, Milan

This foodie paradise near the Duomo has an enormous deli featuring Italian specialty foods, as well as a refined bar, restaurant, and café that serves up traditional—and excellent—pastas, pizza slices, olives, toasted nuts, and a good selection of wines by the glass.

This architecturally stimulating but dimly lit place has such artistic features as recycled fiberglass panels and vintage 1970s furnishings. The music is an eclectic mix of chill-out tunes during the daytime, with more upbeat and vibrant tracks pepping it up at night. Located on a quiet side street near the Duomo, STRAF, inside the hotel of the same name, draws a young and lively, if tourist-heavy, crowd.

Open throughout the day, this is a great place to get coffee and bump into Milan's elite. Park yourself in the pretty glass-walled "greenhouse" room for some prime indoor and outdoor people-watching, or take a seat at the marble bar inside for a cocktail or bite to eat.
