Terrazza Aperol - Milano

Even though there was a line, we were sat within 10 minutes because we were also ordering food. If you are only there for drinks, it may be a little longer wait as there is also an appetizer included with your drink order. The view of Duomo is stunning. Only recommendation would be to trim the tree/bushes, the view is why we picked this spot, so a clear view would be amazing. Food and service were great. Enter via Il Mercado Duomo and take the electric stairs up or elevator.

It was so nice to chill at this terrace bar right next to the Duomo and I'm glad I did it, but the food and drinks here are incredibly bad I don't even know how it's possible The appetizers came with the drinks, but even the mozzarella tasted so sad. Mocktails were like straight up syrup. I don't know what happened but I guess it's give and take. Here for the views!

It's great to visit for a first timer in Milan with the most beautiful view of the Duomo. It would be one of the most expensive aperol spritz you will have in the city, though it comes with snacks that were just ok, it's good to stop by to check out the vibe and the ambiance. It's true that snagging a table outdoor can take a while, but even with seats indoor you can step outside to take in the beauty of the duomo and take pics. The inside is well decorated with everything aperol spritz. There was a DJ playing too so that added to the vibe of at the terrazza.

If you're in Milano you naturally have to go to the Terrazza Aperol, a true staple near the Duomo. Yes, this place is a tourist trap and ig trap, but guess what, it IS worth it. You're getting the best views from the top with a nice refreshing drink. Of course, if you're in Italy, a delicious spritz is found anywhere but you definitely would by default have to drink one here too. I mean, the whole place is Aperol themed and their branding is on point. They do serve other types of cocktails but of course, Aperol wins them all. Your cocktail comes with a tray of little apps for you to enjoy (but this is a traditional and normal thing anytime you take aperitivo). I would take half a star off just for the outrageous prices for an Aperol Spritz (given that you can get one for $5 almost anywhere in Italy) but either way, we're not here to compare. This is piazza Duomo, the views are incredible (especially if you sit outside), the place is a whole vibe. Lines are always queuing up but it's definitely moving. I'm not saying this is the best place for a drink in Milano but if you do find yourself here, you have to do it at least once.

This place is a hidden gem! It was recommended to us by a local. You do have to wait a while in the line, but it is totally worth it! Especially for us, because we got a balcony seat with a view of the Duomo. We went during happy hour, so it was a double bonus! We of course got the Aperol spritz, which is their specialty and it came with a little snack plate. Appertivo time! Was so good!! I'd definitely go again! Service was great as well they were very nice!
