Barissimo

Top choice in Constanţa


Worth a trip to admire the stunning steampunk-inspired interior of tiles and colours and big bar built from stacks of pulped paperback books. Great coffee, superb cocktails and a smart, modern vibe make this a great coffee stop or a longer evening session over drinks. There's a small lunch menu, with salads, sandwiches and burgers.
