I just had breakfast with a cappuccino and Nutella croissants, excellent! The quality products are complemented by the kindness, courtesy, and professionalism of the owners and staff. My day starts off with breakfast here in the best way possible. Well done! Recommended to everyone!

As someone passing through Novara for a few hours and for the first time in Novara..., the first place that came to my attention on Google Maps was a simple savory puff pastry snack and a cappuccino, nothing special, though.... Very kind and courteous staff, reliable and attentive, very welcoming and accurate, very open-plan space 👍😎 Like a first contact with the city of Novara, I mean, I immediately felt at ease ❤️❤️❤️ The first impression is always decisive!!! It was a real pleasure 👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰 Thank you so much 🌸🌺💕 Highly recommended

Definitely the best brioches in the entire city; I've been coming here for years now. Since I no longer live in Novara, I come much less often, but any excuse is a good one to return as soon as possible.

Excellent in every way: the interior decor is beautiful, and the outdoor seating is comfortable, covered by a gallery. The food is exceptionally good, though the prices are on the higher side, and the portions are not generous.

It never disappoints, from the croissants to the raisin and apple cake to the bread and Nutella. Friendly and helpful staff!! Congratulations!!

Perfect bar for a lunch break or aperitif at any time, Spritz a bit strong 😅 but good

Good coffee but the "Antonella Brioche" is the winner. Great location for UPO and the city centre. Go try it out.

They probably have the best croissants you'll find in Novara: they're filled freshly to your liking. The staff is friendly, and the price (€1.50 per croissant) is absolutely proportionate to the quality of the products.

A very elegant location, with attention to detail in the preparation, excellent quality, and a superb selection of ingredients. Truly excellent, congratulations! Update: Superb lunch breaks with first- and second-level options and desserts, all freshly prepared.

I've been there twice for lunch and the food was great. The staff was super nice and the food came out quite fast. It was not too crowded but it can become busy and noisy. In the afternoon it is possible to enjoy coffee, tea or some snacks. Lunch is different each day and it's not expensive at all! Also the place is clean and well organized. To enter you need a mask (surgical is fine) and the green pass that proves you're vaccinated. It is also possible to eat outside!

A lovely little bar near the university. Fantastic breakfast with homemade brioches filled to order. A real treat. Definitely worth a try.

We discovered it a week before everything closed, and fortunately the owners were smart and organized deliveries and digital payments. We sent an aperitif to a friend, who really enjoyed it, and we had brunch delivered to celebrate our anniversary. It was a different kind of experience, generous, delicious, and well-curated!

I stopped at this bar by chance while passing by... It was love at first sight... Designer furnishings and top-notch cleanliness. Everything is refined, from the brand of water, the tables, the counter with electrical and USB sockets to the coffee machine, fantastic and served with a Home Made biscuit. The neon sign on the wall is fantastic. The back of the counter is hand-decorated by an artist and inside it hides the pantry of glasses and dishes (brilliant). The bathroom is super clean and also designer. In addition to the super scented soap there is also a hand cream available (what is a dream?) Well in the end we get to the moment of the bill... 1 strong coffee, 1 decaffeinated coffee and 1 small bottle of water, just over €3, things from another planet if you count the two biscuits, the shot of lemon water before the coffee and the location in my opinion really on another level. After the bill we chatted with the two owners, two very kind and friendly young guys. Well what can I say I found everything you can look for in a bar (which is actually also a bistro that I will try soon): CLEANLINESS FRIENDLINESS AND QUALITY I will definitely be back...

I had lunch here during a work break. The atmosphere is youthful and welcoming; the lunch menu is varied and interesting, and always includes water, dessert, and coffee. The quality of the ingredients is excellent, as is the execution of the dishes. The staff is friendly and efficient. I recommend it!

Il posto è molto carino, i prezzi sono più alti della media ma il thè e la briosh erano molto buoni 👍 Le ragazze carine e disponibili.

We had coffee here after lunch. It was very busy, but the staff was very active, both at the lunch tables and at the counter. The counter was well stocked, even with pastries, despite it being lunchtime. Coffee cost €1.20. The atmosphere is very pleasant, definitely a great place for students in the area and beyond.

Breakfast and lunch at this restaurant near the University of Eastern Piedmont in Novara. The restaurant is modern and very clean, and the staff is very friendly. Excellent value. The dishes are very tasty. Recommended.

Consigliatissimo per la colazione, buonissimi i dolci e le brioches, queste ultime davvero superiori alla media, con tante combinazioni possibili tra diversi impasti e farciture. Per pranzo invece ci sono stata due volte e in entrambi i casi nel menù non era presente una opzione senza carne né pesce. Alla richiesta di un'alternativa le proposte sono state pasta in bianco o insalata verde con pomodoro e mozzarella.. credo che si possa migliorare su questo aspetto, considerando che comunque anche chi è onnivoro qualche volta vorrà pur mangiare qualcosa che non contenga carne o pesce. L'ambiente è esteticamente bello, però molto rumoroso e i tavolini sono molto vicini l'uno all'altro, non è quindi adatto a chi soffre stimoli uditivi eccessivi. In quel caso meglio accomodarsi all'esterno, dove è piacevole sedersi ai tavolini che danno su una strada non troppo trafficata. Il personale è molto disponibile e gentile.

Located in the heart of Novara, just steps from the Perrone University complex, Bar dell'Ateneo has proven to be a convenient and functional hub for students and workers in the area. The atmosphere is casual yet refined, perfect for a quick breakfast, a lunch break, or an aperitif with colleagues and friends. I recently visited for lunch/aperitif and had an overall positive experience. I particularly appreciated the well-stocked charcuterie and cheese platter, accompanied by a very soft and flavorful bread, similar to milk bread, which really made the difference. The cocktails were also quite enjoyable to sip. Among the appetizers, the puff pastry snacks were the only letdown: the pastry was a bit dry... The tart, however, was excellent, with a homemade flavor and crumbly crust. The service was friendly and fairly quick...in conclusion, a practical and welcoming place, perfect for a quality break in the heart of the university city.

It's unthinkable that at 9:40 a.m. there's no croissant left in a café! When we arrived, we weren't given any attention for the first 7-8 minutes, as two of the girls on duty were busy tidying up and clearing tables, while a third was already making coffee. She could have at least said something... I don't know, "I'll be right there!" wasn't a bad idea! We were just about to leave when a girl who was tidying up turned to us and asked for our order, so we stayed... and unfortunately, without any croissants!

Nice place, but the service leaves a lot to be desired. €6 for a good but not exceptional prosecco, and they pour the dregs of the bottle, then open another to refill. At least don't do it in front of the customer.

Spacious and clean, no complaints about the service. Unfortunately, on several occasions I've noticed the quality of the products is truly poor, especially the bread and focaccia. The last attempt today was truly indescribable. Two toasts, both burned and inedible. If you complained at the cashier, you'd expect at least a discount or a free coffee. It would have been truly appreciated!
