Every café here is checked before it goes on the map: the roasters they pour, how they brew and what guests say after a visit.

About coffee in Genoa

Over 60 percent of the coffee drunk in Italy enters the country through Genoa and nearby Savona; Trieste, which made coffee its brand, takes barely a fifth. The Millo building in Porto Antico, home today to Eataly, was once a bean warehouse right behind the customs house. Genoa's first roasteries started up in the early twentieth century, and not out of fashion but because the raw material was lying a few hundred metres away. Beans fan out from here across the whole country, and the story of Italian coffee gets told without Genoa anyway.
