Irrera 1910

Messina is renowned for its granita, and you'll devour one of the very best at this polished cafe-pasticceria. To order like a local, ask for a mezza con panna e brioche, which will get you a glass of coffee-flavoured granita topped with cream and served with a brioche bun for dipping. Other granita flavours are available, and it also sells decent cakes and pastries.
