CERESIO 7
Ceresio, 7
One of the most beloved and trendy rooftops in Milan, located on the top floor of the Dsquared2 building, quickly became the place to be for enjoying an aperitif or a drink by the pool while admiring the sunset or the city skyline. When the beautiful season arrives, it’s almost a mandatory glamour choice. Ceresio 7 is a cocktail bar, a gourmet restaurant, and a terrace with a pool open during the day where you can tan and refresh yourself during the city summer. As with any venue tied to a fashion brand, style and meticulous details, decidedly Instagram-worthy, are guaranteed. It’s June, and Ceresio 7 awaits you with its very cool atmosphere to enjoy the start of the Milanese summer, raising a perfectly mixed drink with your eyes on the sunset or the starry sky.
LÙBARINO
Piazza del Carmine, 1
A small kiosk in the heart of Brera in Piazza del Carmine, a more casual and compact “spin-off” of its larger sibling Lùbar, yet it retains the exact same spirit. Lùbarino is a delightful open air option open from late afternoon to evening, except on weekends when it’s also possible to have lunch and enjoy a nearly summer-like breeze in one of Milan’s most beautiful historic neighbourhoods. At Lùbarino, you can find freshly pressed juices, salads, arancini (let’s not forget that Sicilian traditions inspire everything), toast, and of course drinks to enjoy seated at one of the four small tables in the piazzetta, perched at the colourful and lively counter, or to take away.
TERRAZZA DUOMO 21
Piazza del Duomo, 21
A spectacular terrace and refined indoor spaces, Terrazza Duomo 21 is located just steps away (literally) from the Duomo di Milano, which stands right in front of you while you sip your favourite drink. An exclusive venue in the city centre where you can enjoy a relaxing break, a business lunch with a view of the Duomo, a lively aperitif on the terrace, or an evening with friends – an extremely pleasant moment dedicated to well-being and conviviality. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, elegant lounges and large windows overlooking Piazza del Duomo will still allow you to savour an excellent cocktail while enjoying a breathtaking view of Milan from above.
SOULGREEN
Piazzale Principessa Clotilde
From breakfast to lunch, from aperitif to after-dinner drinks, the destination is always Soulgreen. A green, curated and relaxing corner offering inclusive cuisine, tasty dishes, with a strong focus on quality and health. Soulgreen believes that taking care of your well-being at the table doesn’t mean sacrificing flavour, experience, or creativity. This is demonstrated not only by its dishes but also by its imaginative and refined cocktails and fine wines. Its drink list, “Italians drink it better,” features creative options like “Dino,” made with gin, vermouth, parsley Rosolio, bergamot marmalade, and chilli, or “Centurione,” directly inspired by Ancient Rome. For wine lovers, choose a glass of Sauvignon Blanc from the renowned Sancerre winery, one of the most iconic names in the Loire wine region. Cheers!
MARTINI BAR DOLCE & GABBANA
Corso Venezia, 15
Corso Venezia is one of the most elegant streets in the centre of Milan, chosen by luxury brands to open their stores and bars. The brand Dolce & Gabbana has undoubtedly made Corso Venezia and Via della Spiga its favourite streets to showcase its unmistakable lifestyle in Milan. In collaboration with Martini, they’ve created a unique and charming venue: two symbols of top-tier Italian craftsmanship have joined forces, and the result is truly impressive. The Martini Bar Dolce & Gabbana is beautiful, baroque, and sumptuous, reflecting the iconic duo’s style, with carefully crafted cocktails and dishes featured on the menu. An aperitif or dinner at the Martini Bar Dolce & Gabbana includes Italian quality, fashion, and taste. During the warm season, its beautiful and private outdoor space is the perfect place to be.
MILORD
Piazza Gian Lorenzo Bernini
The comfort of a living room, where expert bartenders create unforgettable moments by the glass until late at night: this is the philosophy of Milord Milano. Created for a clientele who loves the sophistication typical of Milan’s nightlife, this venue is a meeting point that combines metropolitan design with vintage charm, vibrant colours, and lounge music. Its magnetic and distinctive lounge features antique tables and armchairs sourced from flea markets, vintage signs, and old radios that set the stage for the heart of the cocktail bar – the expansive and well-stocked counter where the staff crafts unique signature cocktails. Every preparation is based on a quest for quality ingredients and a mix of classic and unusual elements, resulting in visually striking creations because, as they say, we also eat with our eyes. A hidden gem is the basement, which houses a room of the same size as the upstairs area, with a pool table, bar station, elegant and comfortable sofas and armchairs, making it perfect for private parties and events.
