Gran Malabar

★ 4.4  •  $$

One of Trieste’s original wine bars, Gran Malabar pours several dozen labels with a strong lean towards Friulian producers, and it holds 4.4 on Google across more than 800 reviews.

The room spills onto Piazza San Giovanni in the warmer months, and it’s a reliable spot for an aperitivo before dinner in the surrounding streets.

Local tip: Ask the staff for a by-the-glass recommendation; the list changes often enough that it’s worth trusting them over the menu.
