No. 42 in the world · November 2026
Bar Italia
No. 42The one cup to order
An espresso or a cappuccino at the bar, with a cornetto
Soho's Italian bar since 1949, open till the small hours, the cup London's night owls finish on.
Make it at home
Espresso at home: the Roman shot, dialled in by weight
10 min including warm-up · 1 double shot. The shot every Roman and Neapolitan bar on the chart lives by. A home machine can pull a very good one once you measure what goes in and what comes out.
