Coffee shop in Milan
A taste experience
Inside Milan's historic 17th-century Cascina San Giovanni, a café exudes the colors and scents of Puglia. A place where time slows, coffee is carefully prepared, and morning light filters through the antique wooden beams. Osteria San Giovanni is more than just a restaurant, but also a space dedicated to daily coffee rituals, from Italian breakfasts to traditional desserts and relaxing breaks reminiscent of the South. Every detail—from the colorful ceramics to the scents of almonds and citrus—contributes to creating an authentic and understated atmosphere, where flavors meet memories. The Osteria San Giovanni café was born from the desire to bring the colors of Puglia to Milan, reinterpreting them with contemporary elegance. Here, coffee is more than just a beverage, but a shared ritual: from the classic espresso to the "Leccese" version, prepared with ice and almond milk. Sweet treats accompany every moment of the day: tarts with artisanal jams, freshly baked pasticciotti, wine-flavored biscuits, and almond cakes. The simple, bright space retains the rustic feel of the farmhouse: natural wood, stone walls, and warm lighting create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for those seeking an authentic break in the heart of Milan.
Coffee, breakfasts and flavours
Italian blends
Every day, the café offers a selection of Italian blends and specialties inspired by Puglia's traditions. Breakfast becomes a moment of discovery: alongside classic cappuccinos and croissants, you'll find traditional pastries made with simple, wholesome ingredients. The aroma of freshly ground coffee mingles with that of baked goods, creating a multisensory experience that evokes the slow life of southern Italian villages. Throughout the day, the café transforms into a meeting space: a place to read, work, or simply savor time, accompanied by an espresso or a Mediterranean herbal tea.

The elegance of simplicity
Osteria San Giovanni interprets coffee culture with a minimalist and authentic vision.

Everything is designed to convey calm, beauty, and harmony, in keeping with the establishment's philosophy: reconnecting with authentic flavors and moments of tranquility. The ingredients come from select Italian producers, with a special focus on small artisanal roasters in Southern Italy. Each cup tells a story of territory, work, and passion.
