It was more of a takeout kind of place, with a couple of tables set up outside. Prices were reasonable and the service was kind (about our English).

The cappuccino was fabulous and we tried a number of the pastries. This is a must try. This is a place that all the locals visit to buy pastries/breads etc.

The one in Corso di Porta Romana is my favorite one, as it stands in the middle of a rural area and from its few tables and benches that overlook the commercial street I can spot people and trams passing by. It is ideal for a morning caffeine shot and so it’s always crowed as their coffee is tasty and very cheap, service is incredibly quick and there’s a big variety of small or bigger sweets to accompany your cup pf coffee, like locals do. For one of their signature tastes choose a Cannoncino or a Panarellina, both tasty and always fresh. There’s also the option of taking a package of freshly baked goodies with you, or chose from a range of packaged biscuits and typical Milanese cakes. Another, smaller shop is located close to Duomo, just off Via Torino -one of the busiest commercial streets- and therefore it’s ideal for a quick stop and a break from sightseeing or shopping. In both spots you’ll find pictures and items from past ages, a sign that Panarello’s history is more than a century long. Read more reviews in my travel blog ariettastraveltips.com link in bio .

The pasteries were incredible. Everyone was so friendly and patient. We wanted to try everything and we did! We only had a few hours in Milan and we are so happy that we stopped in for a cappuccino and goodies! Be sure to try the specialty of the house, a crispy custard filled delight!! Caio Bella!!

Cannoncini made of puff pastry with custard are divine. Not very cheap but you MUST try.
