San Ferdinando

Monumental Naples of Plebiscito and San Carlo, where the caffè is an institution and the setting is grand.

San Ferdinando is the monumental, theatrical Naples of Piazza del Plebiscito, the Teatro di San Carlo, the Galleria Umberto and the royal palace, the stage where the city presents its grandest face. Caffè culture is the local religion here: Gran Caffè Gambrinus, open since 1860 with its Belle Époque mirrors and gilt, is where Naples takes its espresso, its sfogliatella and its history in one sitting. Nearby Pintauro keeps the sweet tradition alive on Via Toledo, the city's great shopping artery. To eat in San Ferdinando is to do it with ceremony, between an opera and a stroll, surrounded by marble and memory.
