4 Best Restaurants in Procida, Capri, Ischia, and Procida

This busy café-bar has outside seating on the basalti flagstones with views of the port, so you can watch the boats coming in and out while munching on island-specialty lingue di bue and classic sfogliatelle pastries, panini, or semifreddi (frozen desserts similar to ice cream).

Gelato made artisanally from local ingredients and a selection of cocktails make this bar a great place to stop at the Marina Corricella.

This waterfront restaurant, family run since 1964, is as rustic as they come, with food served on plastic tables outside. For starters, try the bruschette and the seafood specialty (a selection of shellfish, octopus, and anchovies big enough for two); the impepata di cozze (mussels in pepper) is a must, as is the island's best granita di limone (lemon crushed ice), freshly made here every day. Leave room for the locally made cakes.

A meal at this restaurant, on the beach about a half-mile east of Corricella, encapsulates Procida's seaside simplicity. Lapping waves and views of the marina and Capri form the backdrop for the fresh seafood and vegetable creations. Access the restaurant either by foot down the steps from Via Pizzaco or by the free orange boat every two hours from the Corricella harbor front—phone the owner for times.
