Cova is the oldest pasticceria and coffee shop in Milan. Soon after it was established, Cova became a meeting-place for Milanese aristocracy. Today, this cafè still welcomes the city’s well-to-do through the doors, you’ll often see them enjoying a coffee before hitting the shops along the chic via Montenapoleone. Famous for panettone (a traditional sweetbread) at Christmas, no trip to Milan is complete without a visit to this historic cafè.
