Caffè Michelangelo

Capri


On a street flanked by tasteful shops and near two lovely piazzas, this is the best place in Anacapri to park your gluteus maximus for a bit of tourist-watching. Rate the passing parade over a spritz con Cynar, a less-sweet take on the classic Aperol spritz, made using a herbacious Italian bitter liqueur. It also does wine by the glass.
