When you open the page of Caffé Quadri, right in the middle of St Marco´s Square, and the image of this beautiful building lit in the full moon light at night, the sybarite traveller who is looking for new experiences, will immediately want to be there. If he later wants to carry on checking out its sumptuous rooms upholstered in red silk with hanging crystal lamps (from neighbouring Murano perhaps), he reaches its spectacular cellar and carries on gaining information from the place, so he will arrive to the conclusion that you cannot visit Venice without stopping by Caffé Quadri. You can book a table by day (because they open for lunch) but, the best thing to do, is to enjoy a good glass of wine (that you´ll struggle to choose) in the dim light of its outside terrace. If the weather isn´t great, the inside is of such delicacy that it also harbours an unforgettable evening. At Caffé Quadri you can have a coffee, an alcoholic drink or enjoy a pleasant dinner. Its owners take pride from it being the first place in the world to sell ´boiling black water´, or ´Turkish coffee´ since 1700, well over three centuries ago. You can make your booking from apartments in Venice or easily online.
