Casa Stagnitta

Nestled within the historic heart of Palermo, Casa Stagnitta is well worth a stop during a long day of sightseeing. From early morning, delight in breakfast delights such as croissants, brioches, and the quintessential Palermo rotisserie. The allure continues with freshly stuffed cannoli and cakes, as well as granita, a typical Sicilian cold, sweet treat made from water, sugar, and fruit.

Cafés

Besides the excellent espresso, Palermo has some peculiar coffee-based alternatives of its own, like granita al caffè (frozen ice with coffee and whipped cream) or gran caffè (a cappuccino without milk). To complement your coffee, choose among plenty of delicious patisserie products: try the famous dessert cassata (a sponge cake moistened with fruit juices or liqueur and layered with ricotta cheese and candied fruit) or the Sicilian cannoli stuffed with ricotta cheese and pistachio.
