Trieste’s oldest café still in its original form, Caffè Tommaseo has been open on its namesake square since 1830, and it holds 4.5 on Google across more than 2,800 reviews.
The mirrored, Vienna-style interior makes it as much a sightseeing stop as a place for an evening drink, and it stays lively later than most of the city’s historic cafés.
Local tip: Come for a coffee in the day and come back for a spritz after dark; the room feels different both times.
