Bar Pan e Vin

Honestly, I loved this tiny, crowded, hole in the wall café. The two gals behind the counter were rock stars! They served up perfect espresso and cappuccino and heated up some scrumptious focaccia sandwiches for us that we took to go, pre-​hike. The price was extremely fair too! Would recommend for a quick bite and coffee, but don’t count on getting chairs or sitting long!

A quaint little hole in the wall with delicious facaccia sandwiches and great service. Doesn’t look like much from the outside, but sit inside for cooler air and a pleasant experience. Excellent coffee too.

We stopped here after dinner at Il Pirun to try some limoncello. We’d promised my mother in law that we’d bring her some limoncello, and we’d heard that it’s best in Cinque Terre because of their lemons.
Stefano helped us out. He was so kind. We chatted as we sipped our drinks, and he helped us with some Italian phrases as well. We ended up staying for a couple of hours to try a few different drinks and to talk with Stefano.
We ended up purchasing two different limoncellos. When we return to Corniglia, we will certainly return here for a drink. We would also consider staying in the Cristiana and Stefano’s rooms!

Excellent owners | Great prices | Good food

I highly recommend Bar Pan E Vin if you’re looking to grab a bite to eat in the morning or if you’re looking for a quick snack throughout the day. We ate at this place every morning because we stayed as a guest with the owners, Stefano and Cristiana. They are so friendly and take pride in their hard work with both their B&B and restaurant businesses.
It’s not hard to find. There are other shops on the same street, which are also great too, but we think this is the best place to grab a something to eat. We really liked the cappuccinos, the cream pastry, and the apricot pastry.
If you’re a tourist and looking to purchase one of those Cinque Terre wine stoppers, get it at this shop because it’s sold for 3 to 4.50 EU instead of 8 to 15 EU at other shops.
