Cafezal Gae Aulenti

Cafezal's newest Milan address stands a short walk from the towers of Piazza Gae Aulenti, in a bright, high ceilinged room with a long timber table, bar stools, a grey banquette and a planter of ferns dividing the floor. A lit sign overhead reads "Specialty coffee para todos", a fair summary of the group's Brazilian accent and its wish to keep good coffee unfussy.

The room is planned for busy weekdays and slower weekends, with a pastry counter at the back and bags of Cafezal coffee on wooden shelves by the window. It opened in the autumn of 2026 and works from the same roasts as every other Cafezal, made at the Coffee Hub, with weekday hours that start early and run until early evening.
