Best Bars in Navigli

A Navigli aperitivo institution with a vermouth library that runs past 100 bottles and Negronis built with care. The early evening buffet draws a loyal local crowd.

A small, intimate room directly on the canal that pours rotating seasonal cocktails. One of the bars that set the tone for the modern Navigli scene.

Reportedly the smallest cocktail bar in the world at four square metres, booked in 30 minute slots. The menu changes every month and the room is yours for the sitting.

A speakeasy styled cocktail bar and gourmet bistrot just off the canal, known for the signature Trique. Good for a drink that turns into dinner.

A historic cocktail bar and Milanese kitchen in a 1700s house over the Vicolo dei Lavandai. The canal side rooms and the garden are the seats to book.

A casual natural wine bar with a deep Italian regional list and pizza by the slice. An easy stop before the canal fills up for the evening.

A canal side aperitivo buffet on Ripa di Porta Ticinese that runs into a late lounge. Built for the spritz hour and the crowd that stays after it.

Fourteen rotating taps on the Naviglio Pavese with screens facing the canal terrace. The Navigli room for a pint and the game.
