Cafe Milano

You'll find yourself on a busy stretch of the city centre where the lunch crowd moves fast, but Cafe Milano makes you want to slow down. It's the kind of place where the espresso arrives in proper cups, the staff know what they're doing, and there's genuine Italian energy about it—not the polished, Instagram-ready kind, just honest café culture. The room's unpretentious, the prices won't hurt your wallet, and whether you're grabbing a quick coffee between meetings or settling in with a panini, there's a real neighbourhood café feeling despite being right in the thick of town.
