Welcome to Chiccotosto, a charming café nestled in the bustling heart of Milano, specifically located in Piazza dell'Ospedale Maggiore, 3. This café offers a delightful retreat for both locals and visitors, particularly those navigating the nearby Niguarda hospital. With a warm ambiance and customer-centric service, Chiccotosto redefines the coffee experience in Milan.

The moment you step through the doors, you're enveloped by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the sweet scent of pastries that are baked to perfection. The café prides itself on its exceptional offerings, and the highlight undoubtedly is the brioche. Customers rave about the soft, flaky texture, often bursting with rich Nutella or carefully crafted fruit jams, making each bite a luxurious treat. Pair this with a frothy cappuccino or a refreshing, freshly squeezed juice, and you’ve got the perfect breakfast to start your day.

Café Chiccotosto is not just about great food; the atmosphere is equally inviting.

Dopo una visita, una buona e abbondante colazione è proprio un toccasana al morale. Brioche ottima e strabordante di nutella, cappuccino buono e spremuta fresca fatta al momento. Certo, non è il bar della galleria del duomo, ma anche qui ci si trova bene. Il tocco in più lo dà il personale: già di prima mattina di buon umore, gentili e cortesi coi clienti.

Ottima caffetteria all’interno del Blocco Nord di Niguarda. Le brioche hanno una pasta soffice e consistente, molte sono farcite da loro con marmellate varie e creme, risultando molto buone. C’è posto anche per sedersi comodamente aspettando il proprio turno agli sportelli ospedalieri.

Posto molto carino...Valeria super gentile fa piacere incontrare persone come lei...a differenza della "capa" ( capelli scuri mossi lunghi) una cafona! La sua frase è stata mentre io aspettavo il mio turno in cassa senza dire nulla: questa adesso aspetta non me ne frega un c... devo vedere dei prezzi!!!

Ottima caffetteria, anche per un pranzo veloce a base di panini. Il personale è veloce e cortese, nonostante l'affluenza notevole.
