Espresso and Maritozzi
Step up to the bar. Whether it’s a strong caffè ristretto to start your day, an afternoon macchiato, or a crisp cocktail before dinner, Bar Giorgio is open from morning through to the early evening, following gallery opening hours.
There’s no table service — and that’s just how it should be. This is coffee standing up or sitting down with quick chats with the barista, a moment of pause before heading back into the city. Like the best bars in Milan, Bologna or Palermo, it’s about rhythm, ritual, and real coffee.
What We Serve
Espresso classics — from cappuccino to caffè corretto
Fresh maritozzi — baked each morning
Aperitivo — Italian spritzes, vermouths, bitters and cicchetti to accompany on a Friday from 4:30pm
Our coffee is sourced from Koffee who understand balance, bitterness, and body — just how Giorgio likes it.
Aperitivo at Bar Giorgio
Join us every Friday from 4:30pm for Aperitivo at Bar Giorgio. A celebration of one of Italy’s most cherished traditions. For just £20, enjoy a classic Campari or Aperol Spritz, served with a curated selection of seasonal cicchetti designed to complement your drink. Whether you’re winding down after exploring the Gallery or meeting friends to start the weekend, this elegant Aperitivo experience in the heart of Trafalgar Square offers the perfect prelude to your evening.
Stop By Anytime
Located just around the corner from Trafalgar Square, Bar Giorgio is ideal for a quick pre-gallery espresso, a morning pastry meeting, or a casual catch-up before dining at Locatelli.
No bookings, no fuss — just good coffee, good people, and a proper Italian welcome.
