Costadoro has been roasting coffee in Turin since 1890, and this flagship inside the historic Palazzo Bricherasio functions as the retail and experience arm of that long-running company rather than a standalone cafe — recycled iron and wood, a large communal table, and a dedicated 'Experience' zone with a display micro-roaster make the space feel closer to a showroom than a corner coffee bar. Bulk roasting happens at the company's main production facility elsewhere in the city, though the on-site roaster here lets visitors see the process in miniature.
A dedicated retail 'home line' area sells bagged blends and single-origins alongside branded mugs, aprons, and t-shirts, making this one of the more merchandise-forward stops in this guide. It sits right off Piazza San Carlo, in the heart of Turin's grand, arcaded historic center, a short walk from the city's most photographed square.
