Marchesi 1824

The 19 Best Restaurants In Milan - Milan - The Infatuation

"Marchesi 1824 is a legendary bakery with three beautiful locations: the original is near Castello Sforzesco, the second in the Montenapoleone fashion district, and the most recent one opened inside the Galleria. If you’re looking for a quick pause over a macchiato at the bar, head to the original—at the Galleria, there’s table service for all-day breakfasts or aperitivi. The panettone is a must (Milan is, after all, the birthplace of panettone). The classic version is available year-round by the slice, and there’s always a seasonal flavor like candied chestnut in the fall. Don’t be surprised if you see an overwhelming amount of Prada here—the brand purchased Marchesi almost ten years ago, and had a strong hand in their classy expansion." - elizabeth de filippo jones
