10 Corso Como

I am giving 10 Corso Como 3 stars for the amazing clothes and fashion. NOT for the € 15.50 cup of coffee and chocolate cake with poor service.
If you are in Milan and around Garibaldi I would recommend going for a wander in here. It is owned by a previous editor of Italian Vogue and the clothes and shoes really are amazing. Some day when I make my fortunes I will be back.
The courtyard is a really nice setting on a sunny day to sit and relax while watching some glamorous people but I would have to agree with the other reviews that the service is poor and the food and drinks overpriced. I got a chocolate cake and coffee and when I was ready to pay I stood up and went to the till and was waiting for at least ten minutes for a waiter to appear. Had I not been feeling too honest I could have easily walked out.

This is a fun store & restaurant to visit. It is a tasteful, high-​fashion, expensive store. Good place to dream about IF you win the lottery… and if you are a size 2. :D Still, if our suitcases weren’t filled with Italian pasta and cookies, I probably would a bought some purses and cool, comfortable shoes.
Please keep in mind…10 Corso Cuomo is not cheap… it is stylish and high-​end. But, it does not cost anything to window-​shop.
I saw handbags by «Paula Cademartori». Wow !!
The shop could make money if they sold scarves and/​or clothes using the patterns they use for their various wrapping papers. They have a whole wall of interesting and gorgeous wrapping paper.
The store and restaurant are not cheap… but, c’mon !!! You are at 10 Corso Cuomo… not Walmart. :)
There are less-​expensive restaurants, nearby.

We enjoyed our visit to this art and creativity filled shop. There are so many unique items to browse through! Fun, whimsical, and in some cases silly.
Here is a pro tip. If you decide to purchase an item, get it gift wrapped. The wrapping paper is beautiful and they wrap everything so carefully and perfectly with stickers and ribbons that the result is itself a work of art!
As to the prices, they are beyond what I previously thought humanly possible. You can’t put a price on true art but in this case, a coffee cup is nearly $ 100.
The café is slightly more affordable, with $ 6 cappuccino’s and a wide assortment of liquor and prosecco. I asked for some cookies in Italian and ended up with a plate full of the cutest and most beautiful assortment of cookies possible. OH MY GOD they were so good. Yum!

Pretentious service, mediocre food. I recommend avoiding, you can find better. My waiter berated me for drinking water out of my personal water bottle I carry everywhere, and it wasn’t like my lunch mate and I weren’t ordering anything… we each had cappuccino and an entrée, I just don’t see the need to waste bottles when I have a reusable one. After that, he literally ignored our table, not bringing us the bread and snacks the other tables were given. When we got our meal, which was very intentionally delayed, it was fine but nothing to write home about. I’d have preferred to have saved my time and money and gotten a pastry on a street shop.

Everyone makes a trip to the store when in Milan. But gosh, it sure ain’t nothing special. You will spend 15 mins there tops. Be sure to check out every floor and don’t forget the rooftop garden. Then head on out. 15 mins tops. Did I mention that it’s really nothing special?

If you are visiting Milano, 10 Corso Como is a must.
I think this place is perfect for dinner not only because of the beautiful atmosphere inside, but because of its ideal location. The atmosphere is garden like and grand once entering. The food is very good, but I would not say the best food in Milano. You go here more for the experience. 10 Corso Como is at a perfect location before going out. Hollywood (very famous nightclub) is right across the street, as well as many bars and some other clubs. This area is especially popular in the warm months since some places have upstairs terraces.
As mentioned in other reviews, Corso Como you can also shop at, stay at as a Hotel or go for a café.

THE MOTHERLOAD. Always stop in and yes, don’t regret it… just get it!
(I shoulda gotten the special navy blue cashmere cardigan that they make in their own line! D’oh!)
This place is always changing! I should have eaten here perhaps instead of going to EATALY w/​the kids!
This time for me was a couple of Martin Margiela Outfits… Can you believe it’s John Galliano doing Margiela now?
You never know which designers you’re going to love each time you go! & There is a ton of Corso Como’s own label stuff now. Great jewelry too and Gosh, the Men’s section is huge-​never had the time to check it out ;-D …the sale section is no longer on site it is a separate place… they will give you directions if you want to go.
Have Fun!
And yes they do the VAT!

I finally went to 10 Corso Como this weekend to look for a gift for my boyfriend (a watch). This shop is very famous in Milan so my expectations were very high. As all of the previous reviews say, the shop has pretty high prices, however you can find some small gifts in the 30 – 200 € price range.
As I was walking through the shop section, I felt like I was walking through a Milan model’s borrowed clothes closet. Of course you have some of the famous designers and their pieces here like all of the reviews said, all with high price tags, but none of them really stuck out to me as pieces that I though «wow! this is so unique and special». I felt like this store was a hybrid of Nordstrom, Anthropologie, and even a little Urban Outfitters. After I left, I wondered how they manage to stay in business. 10 Corso Como is a Milan Institution no doubt, so I’m sure the owners have managed to network their way into the Milan’s richest circle to keep this store afloat. Perhaps their art gallery and hotel bring in the revenue, I don’t really know. I didn’t see anyone actually buying anything in the shop, just a lot of browsing.
I didn’t check out the art gallery, rooftop garden, hotel or café, maybe if I go next time.
I wouldn’t say this shop is a must-​see in Milan, but if you have some free time and are browsing cafes in the city, it’s ok to stop by.

A voir et à savourer à toute heure! immanquable à Milan!
Un endroit dingue. C’est bien simple, il y a tout: uen librairie d’art incroyable, une galerie surprenante, une terrasse hors du temps, pleine de mosaïques et de fers forgés qui laissent admirer les jolies façades environnantes, des corners de mode plus pointus tu meurs (au point qu’on parle du Colette italien) et un café, bar, brasserie qui sert à toute heure dans un cadre fabuleux. A peine un peu plus cher que certaines adresses milanaise courante et quelle claque! Le soir, au moment des fpetes, les oliviers et la végétation luxuriante sont couverts de guirlandes lumineuse donnant à l’endroit un coté féérique qui né peut laisser insensible. Dans la journée, on se régale de pâtes ou autres sous la verrière et au milieu de la végétation. C’est vaste, il y a toujours de la place, le service est agréable, et… petit bonus pour les fumeurs: on peut fumer à l’intérieur! On se montre mais pas trop, surtout, on savoure et qu’est-ce que c’est bon!

Definitely my fav shop in Milan. They have very cool jewelries, like balenciaga and Giuseppe zanotti, great shoes, clothes, and even hardware.
They have a beautiful café terrace, perfect to have a tea after shopping.

Let’s be honnest: you probably won’t go here to buy anything (a book on fashion or design maybe…) and if you are, lucky for you!
To sum up, it is a concept store that sells very expensive: men and women clothes, accessories, shoes, jewels, purses, perfumes, art books…
Even the «Corto Como» branded souvenir products are very expensive…
There is also a coffee/​restaurant. Unfortunatly I did not get anything there so I don’t know if the prices are in line with the ones of the shops…
But the place in itself is just amazing! It is like going to the museum. The building is already beautiful in itself but the whole place is enhanced by the design of the store, carefully thought through. Additionally, the wondeful patio in which plants are going everywhere looks like paradise!
On the first floor you can see exhibitions, in May 2014 it was a very interesting World Press Photo exhibit.
I am very glad I was given this address, for me it is a must see in Milano!

Shop, art gallery, rooftop garden, hotel, and café all rolled into one. Came here as it was recommended to me by a friend, and was happy that I did.
Located in the Moscova section of Milano, it is about a 20 minute walk from Centrale.
I ended up eating at the café/​restaurant before I left. I was happy with my food, but I really loved my espresso. Prices are a little on the higher end here but they are not ridiculous. I am not sure if they have changed staff, but I had a pleasant experience with the servers. Service was prompt and I was given exactly what I ordered, although I did speak englitalian to them so that may have helped. Regardless, they were friendly to me and I was satisfied with the service.
There is a small art gallery upstairs and there is also a rooftop garden. Unfortunately, it was raining the day I went, so the rooftop garden was closed.
As far as the shop goes — I would not give in and buy any of the overpriced items there (unless you find it absolutely necessary to spend 150 euro on a tank top.) I agree with a previous Unilocaler in that some parts of the shop definitely give off a Comme des Garçons vibe.
Definitely worth checking out, even if you’re not buying.

I adore this place.
Corso Como. you absolutely fab, snobbish piece of Milan!
How can I explain Corso Como? It’s a combination of design store filled with exclusive and extravagant shoes (think Louboutin, Choo, .), gorgeous clothes, hats, and bags; a trendy restaurant and a bar set up in an amazing green botanic garden (there is an indoor restaurant as well, but I love the garden); a hotel with tree utterly beautiful design rooms; and the worse service you’ll ever come across in Milan.
I’ve been here so many times that I’ve gotten accustomed to the terrible service with the strangely disengaged and stoned service staff with zero English speaking abilities. It goes beyond my understanding how you can look so bored working in such a beautiful.
So set your mind up for bad service and just go anyway — if for nothing, then to have a look. I’ll promise, two hours later you’re still hanging out in the café/​restaurant sipping coffee (really good coffee) or cocktail (hands down the best cocktail I’ve had in Milan) or when start feeling hungry, manage to miraculously draw the attention of your waiter — and he actually comes to your table — to order a wonderful dinner.
This place is expensive so bring the big purse — especially if you suddenly want to impulse shop something in the designer store. I’ve heard there is a corso como outlet as well, but I haven’t been able to tear myself away long enough to visit it.
Seriously, just go.

Rating is average between bar and shop.
Shop is bad: overpriced useless stuff, clothes nobody would wear. Personnel is rude and unhelpful.
Bar is a must, at least once you should drink a good quality aperitivo in the patio. It’s romantic between the plants and lights. Waiters are nice and attentive.
Anyway you put it, you need to stop by once. Just avoid buying anything in the shop :)

If you like terrible, overpriced food, then this is the place for you. We came in for brunch (I had an omelet, my guest had a pasta dish). We joked about how the dishes looked like something we would make at home when we were out of groceries Service was not bad, but not great or friendly by any means. Wouldn’t come back or recommend this place.

Corso Como is a wonderful low profile high-​end fashion, café, bookstore, and art hub in one of the nicer parts of Milan. If you’re not careful you can walk right past this place, but when you enter into its gates you know you are in for an experience. The staff is well dressed and very meticulous with how they handle the merchandise. No pictures, which for me is hard as I have been thrown out of oh about 4 places so far. I tell you there is nothing like being thrown out of somewhere, Milan establishments will tell you to get out in a minute! So I flashed my picts BEFORE I entered!
The selections are carefully made, with designers and silhouettes you know you will only see here and in Seoul. Cross over to the other end and you will see a plethora of perfumes and cosmetics for men and women. Corso Como surprisingly houses 3 hotel rooms in its multiplex? The bookstore located on the top level, has all sorts of coffee table books, vases, posters, from foreign films, artists, and philosophers. I honestly have nothing to compare this place to, which is why I feel it is unique and worth the visit.

Un lugar imprescindible. Restaurante sano y de calidad. Tienda de tendencias. Librería. Sala de exposiciones. Pequeño hotel. Un must en Milán.

A must-​stop if you’re in Milan for shopping (what else?). It’s a bit out of the way, away from the main shopping districts, but it is worth a visit.
10 Corso Como is like Barneys’ older, more sophisticated sister – she’s more confident and willing to take greater fashion risks; the one who would dare to consider a crazy colorful flat felt dress from Comme des Garçons fall 2012. Yes, it is that kind of special fashion place. There is also an art gallery, a floor filled with great design books, wonderful shoe & beauty areas, and a café.
It is more interesting than any of the usual suspects on Via Montenapoleone.

I Love it– so soll Mailand sein. Cool– fashi und wundervoll um zu gucken

I want everything in that store. I love love love love this place.

Das Café ist stilsicher und geschmackvoll präsentiert.
Sozzanis Auswahl immer sehenswert.
Eine nette Ecke mit Atmosphäre in Mailand.

Eine seltsam seltbstverliebte Location… ein Hype um eigentlichts nichts, aber dann doch irgendwie etwas schräg Herausragendes. Ich empfand trotzdem keine Lust, hier viel Geld zu lassen. Dafür gefiel mir die künstliche Atmosphäre zu wenig und die Tatsache, dass ich hier besonders spürte, dass es nur um mein Geld geht.
Auch wenn es woanders ähnlich ist, so habe ich es hier doch besonders empfunden, da es keine freundliche Verkaufsatmosphäre gibt. Da nützen auch Pflanzen, idyllisches Interieur und der Name nichts.
Es gibt Klamotten, Schmuck, Designartikel, ein Café-​Restaurant… Das Ganze in einer Art Hinterhof, schon mit Licht durchflutet und gleichzeitig wohlig schattig in der Hitze.

Bei einem Shopping-​Wochenende in Mailand habe ich zusammen mit meiner Frau das Outlet Corso Como besucht. Der Eingang ist recht unspektakulär, doch im Innenhof trifft man auf eine kleine Oase mitten in der Stadt. Viel Grün mit zahlreichen Sitzmöglichkeiten um seinen Espresso oder etwas zu Essen zu genießen. Der 10 Corso Como ist ein Komplex mit zahlreichen Unterteilungen: Corso Como Café, bookshop, Gallery, Hotel, Parfümerie, Outlet.
Schon beim betreten des Outlets fallen einem die immer wieder auftretenden Corso-​Como-​Motive in schwarz-​weiß auf. Jedoch findet man auch Mode bekannter Designer. Die Kleidung ist teilweise sehr ausgefallen, nichts für den Alltagtsgebrauch, eher für Modeparties oder Freakshows. Vielleicht kann ich als Mann dieser Mode nichts abgewinnen, doch meine Frau konnte sich ebenfalls nicht dafür begeistern.
Wer auffallen will findet hier das passende. Allerdings muss man sich auf die exorbitant hohen Preise einstellen, doch Mailand ist schließlich bekannt dafür.

Le cadre est assez magique et réellement claas. Il faut absolument passer par cette rue si vous vous rendez a Milan d’autant plus qu’il a deux discothèque et 2 super taverne/​café au coin de cette même rue.

Wow, we had heard so much about the place. An exquisite blend of creativity, culture and cuisine.
But the disappointment was great when we ended up there, even as well-​paying customers.
A heartless reception from a very disinterested Chef de Service. He led us to our table and was never seen again nearby. We had made reservations well in advance and the place was nearly empty — except for 3 of 15 tables.
The rest of the restaurants waiters team gave us the impression that they were totally stoned. There is no other way to explain their behavior.
They handed out the menues and vanished. Neither a friendly hello, an offer/​suggestions for an apéritif. We fought all evening for their attention, one waiter even waved back at us, when we tried to get their attention. It felt just like in those hidden camera gags.
When — at last — our waitress was at our table, we said we would like to order an apéritif. After the first drink order, she ran away. And came back with just one drink. :)
The wine order was no better. We ordered a good bottle of wine. She brought another one. And ran away immediately. When she came back to our table the next tme, we pointed it out, she claimed that it was the wine we had ordered. Even the label on the bottle is wrong. :) A lot of creativity i must say.
After the appetizer we received immediately the dessert menu. Practical, but we all had ordered a main course …
If the food was not so good, definitely not great, but good, I would give this pace zero points. (Does not work though).
Conclusion: Great ambience, the worst service I have ever experienced. NEVER AGAIN!

cet endroit il faut y aller notamment pour passer un bon moment dans une ambiance sentant un petit peu la célébrité, l’élégance.

Eine wahre Inspirationsquelle. Mode und Kunst verschmelzen. Und das Café im Innenhof ist sehr cool.

Endroit magnifique, ambiance chic, classe, milanais!
Idéal pour boire un verre, etre vu, croiser une star italienne, un mannequin (homme-​femme)
Et pourtant sa né pue pas la vanité, le «select» type parisianisme, en bref un excellent moment, un excellent cocktail à base de vermouth et campari

der laden ist sehr raffiniert gemacht. Ich findes es stellt so eine art museum dar, weil man von allem so fasziniert wird. Leider sind die Klamotten sehr teuer. Ich empfehle zu Salezeiten hinzugehen. Aber wenn man nichts kaufen möchte, lohnt sich der Weg dahin trotzdem, man wird von der Atmosphäre regelrecht in einen Bann gezogen. Wundervoll. Sehenswert, wenn auch die Disgnerklamotten sehr teuer sind.

veramente molto carino
frequentato da bella gente e molto fashion

Der Concept Store in Italien. Ein Tempel.
Der Store von Carla Sozzani bietet nicht nur den perfekten Überblick über alle neuen Designer-​Kollektionen, sondern präsentiert auch die heißesten Lifstyle-​Trends aus Bereichen wie Interior oder Musik. Sozzani verkauft einfach, was ihr gefällt. Was hier in den Regalen liegt, spricht sich herum. Auf zwei Stockwerken rund um einen ruhigen, gemütlichen Innenhof finden sich neben der Mode-​Boutique noch eine Kunstgalerie, ein Salon de Thé, ein Café, ein Buchladen und ein Musikshop. Kein Problem hier den ganzen Tag zu verbringen.

I have only been to the bar/​restaurant, although I have heard that there is also a design store (probably not open late at night)!.
This bar is right in the middle of one of the hotspots of Milan nightlife. However what really distinguishes this place is two things —
1. It is full of plants everywhere, almost making it feel like you’re having a drink in the garden
2. Part of the garden area is covered by a type of transparent plastic tent, which is classified as outdoors, meaning one can smoke here (smoking is illegal in public places in Italy). It is also warmed up during the winter.
Atmosphere is good, expect the usual goodlooking and fashionable crowd of Milan.
Service is ok, but drinks are quite expensive, although the general area is expensive.
Overall a novel and nice place to have a drink in the centre of Milan’s nightlife.

Incontournable
Il corso como en vo, est certainement le lieu qui représente le mieux la vision milanaise du chic: un resto fashion un peu caché dans un court très romantique le soir, avec des bougies: un peu comme partout vous me direz et bien non ! On est à Milan ici, au-​dessus du restau ce trouve plusieurs boutique de vêtements: attention luxe donc 100 € is not enough ! Le resto aussi est cher mais tellement !

Petit coin cosy pour jambes fatiguées et fumeurs frustrés
Dimanche soir, dernière soirée à Milan entre copines, un petit vin blanc moelleux, des amandes en apéro, quelques notes de jazz et de trip-​hop, la possibilité de fumer dans ce petit jardin aménagé avec lumière tamisée et clientèle select et nous voilà au paradis. Nous avons tout simplement adoré l’endroit. OK c’est pas donné (7 eur le verre de vin) mais ça vaut le coup ! Il faut juste oser s’aventurer derrière le paravant qui fait office d’entrée dans la rue !
