Antico Caffè Spinnato

Spinnato dal 1860, an old-school cafe in Palermo on a beautiful tree-lined pedestrian street, is the perfect place for an afternoon drink, a snack, or an aperitivo before dinner. - as well as great people watching! They also have a more modern cafe on the Piazza Castelnuovo, right across the street from the Politeama Theatre.

The panini and coffee were good, and the waiter was friendly and attentive despite a language barrier. Some details could be improved, such as cleaner cutlery and serving water in a proper glass instead of a plastic cup. Overall, a relaxed café that feels more like 3.5 stars, but I’ll round it up to 4

Loved the place. The atmosphere is amazing. I ordered desserts and some cookies to go. It was nice. During Christmas holidays it was quite busy and the staff was handling it with a nice smile on their face. You can stay there and enjoy ur time while eating some amazing dessert and drinks.

This cafe has been in operation since 1860. Inside, you have a candy store, full cakes, pastries, ice creams, and dessert sections. Outside, there is a large covered patio. We were served by different servers, which caused a long delay when asking for the bill. Coffee was OK and the desserts freshly made and a bit too sweet.

This place is great, and deserves a much higher rating. High quality food, efficient and professional service, and a charismatic setting both inside and out. It’s really big, a bit loud, and the diversity of food that’s already ready already is satisfying and fresh. Been around since 1860, and there are good reasons for that. I love so many local restaurants, but once in a while, you need to grab something on the go, or cart some panini and wine to your favorite place to sit and have a munch. Maybe you have things to talk about in private, and you carry things to your room…or the train…or the plane…you get the idea. Really great, inexpensive options.

Saw this on google recommendations, Had a lovely breakfast here which a variety of sweet and savoury here. Returned for evening drinks, which was joined with amazing treats. One being some sort of strawberry cream tart, best I have ever tasted. Also the service was quick, polite and very friendly. The atmosphere was relaxing cause of its location down a cozy walkway, full of orange trees. Don’t miss this place.

After dinner we stopped in for a coffee and cannoli. Excellent end to the night!

Amazing pastry and cafe. Coffee were amazingly delicious. We tried the pistachios coffee for the first time beside our usual espresso and cappuccino orders and so happy we ventured out. The pistachios sauce wasn’t too sweet and so creamy. The strawberry rum cake was yummy. You won’t be dissatisfied picking items on the menu. Pro tips: it’s NOT a fast serving place so budget your time accordingly to sit down and enjoy the ambiance. If you want fast service, go straight to the bar and place and order and drink/eat it right there on the counter.

Cappuccino e croissant al cioccolato e pistacchio. Buono. La nostra prima mattina nel Palermo, un buon inizio
