Caffè Alvino

Caffè Alvino is more than just a cafe; it's a piece of Lecce's history. Located directly on the main square, it provides an inspiring backdrop for creative work. While often busy, especially during tourist season, the sheer size of the establishment means you can often find a corner for yourself. The interior has a grand, old-world charm. For laptop use, the indoor seating is preferable, as the outdoor tables are mostly for quick drinks. They serve traditional Italian coffee, delicious pastries, and light lunches. The quality of coffee is excellent, as expected in Italy. The clientele is very diverse, ranging from local business people to tourists admiring the square. Noise levels can be lively, especially closer to the entrance or during peak times, but the further you go inside, the more it subsides. Wi-Fi is generally good, and with a bit of searching, you can usually locate a power outlet. It’s an ideal spot for those who thrive on a lively atmosphere with a constant supply of good coffee.
