"Look it’s 20 yards from St Marks Basilica, the primary attraction in one of the most heavily touristed cities in the world. It’s going to have a pretty hefty tourist tax attached to it. However we were happy to pay the tourist tax via our drinks for the location, people watching and the live band. The service was passable however I did leave with a little sour taste. The menu speaks to service charge included, however the waiter hustled me for a tip all the same. I acquiesced, however it is deeply saddening that English speaking customers are hassled for additional tips to, presumably, subsidize customers who do not."

It is not that expensive when you stand at the bar and drink a cup of espresso. Its taste was really good.

Waiter aggressively demanded a tip and followed me out when I declined to give it to him. Made racist comments to me

Nothing can justify to spend 43 EURO for 2 Water 0,25 and 2 Espresso, even if you are in Piazza San Marco. I'm italian, but really I'm ashamed to be... View menu

I read an article about this place this morning. Evidently a total rip off. If you sit outside, expect to pay 38 euros for a coffee. Tell them to sod...

Charming atmosphere and attentive service. I had my doubts because it is right on San Marco Square in the middle of the tourist area, but I was wrong....

Somehow we had a terrible waiter, refused to share the menu. Horrible attitude to the point of yelling back at me. I go inside the Store and explained that there is not so much of a cordial man waiter, and they are just clueless. They understood Spanish, and English, the waiter walks in yelling out loud and coworkers just looked at him and he does as he pleases. View menu

we stopped for a snack, waiting for the hour for the visit of the basilica of San Marco. rainy weather, so outside the square was impossible. the interior is beautiful, antique furniture in Art Nouveau style, with a beautiful murano chandelier. the toast was not much, but we thought we had paid a counter for the location, instead the account was almost normal euro for toasted drink head. )

This is a beautiful and historic coffee house on St Marks square. We went in to get away from the crowds and the rain. It is a beautiful place. The mirrors are original to the 1800's. The chandelier is also and merino. Beautiful place to sit, relax, watch people. Restroom upstairs. It's pricey. The coffee was good, too sweet for me. I suppose though that is my fault. Ordered the special with vanilla and creme. But I didn't leave a drop!! Very Venetian!! And live string music and piano right outside!!

"This is my second review on this place...after The Fork assured me they would resolve the situation following my complaint about the 20% discount that You Sushi would not honour. Food and drink... no problem. Nice enough food. That 's the good bit out of the way. We booked using The Fork and quoted the 20% discount offer on food and drink. I also reiterated this when we arrived and was told that was fine, no problem! On receiving the bill I again pointed out the 20% discount was missing, even though I 'd gone through this on arrival. They played absolutely dumb and refused the discount. I even showed them their website with the discount on it. To no avail, they weren 't interested. I paid, albeit reluctantly, and we left. I took this up with The Fork. All seemed fine and they gave me Yum points since they agreed I was in the right. I pointed out that Yum points are of no use since the closest UK restaurant I could use them is over 200 miles away! They promised to get back to me, resolve the issue with the restaurant etc so I left it with them. Now they 've washed their hands of it! The discount still shows at 20% for each and every day despite them refusing to honour it!! and The Fork have not taken any action against them. This leaves a very bad taste no pun intended and after the cheating restaurant and The Fork 's complete lack of trying to help other than utterly useless Yum points which are as much use to me a 7 dollar note it 's the last time I use either. So..if you do visit this place, be prepared to be conned out of the 20% discount."
