"Brera Riverside used to be a coffee bar which did snacks but after closing for some months it has re-opened as a restaurant, open til 8 weekdays and later on Saturdays. We used to love coming for coffee, especially as it had tables outside overlooking the river and we hope that we will be able to still do this when the weather warms up. Our food on 26 January was good rather than very good, and rather pricey for what was on offer (quite a limited menu of typical Italian fare. As someone who has to avoid gluten I struggled a bit. Service was very slow, we waited 45 minutes for the starters, which were both cold dishes. This is not really acceptable. However, we managed to order an aperitif and some wine before the place filled up and so had something to drink while we waited. Basically, they need more staff and we wondered if the kitchen is big enough for the number of covers. It was not full, and they were struggling. Would I go back? I think we'd give them another chance, as we live locally."
