First Bars & Cafés Basic

The popular Café First Avenue in the centre of Bolzano's old town is part of the homonymous restaurant and has become a popular meeting place for many South Tyrolean music fans, mainly because of its magnificent courtyard. Every Saturday evening, it is transformed into a pleasant venue for alternative live bands, renowned solo artists and creative newcomers.

On any other day of the week, it's hard to imagine that the picturesque garden of the First Avenue Café is such an atmospheric event location. The romantic garden chairs, the splashing fish pond and the high, shady birch trees provide pure relaxation, recreation in the midst of the turmoil of the South Tyrolean capital, a short break just for you. An aromatic cup of coffee, a crispy piece of homemade apple pie with sprinkles and the chirping of the robins outdoors - what more do you need? Here you can get the current daily newspaper or one of the numerous readings of the in-house library.

The large outdoor area in summer, the historic winter garden on cool days: the charming rooms make every visit to Café First Avenue your very special highlight of the day!
