Munger

Very nice bakery and coffee shop with a wonderfull spacious and quiet terrasse. Good pastries, fine coffee and attentive service make this a great stop.
Location near the lake but without view to the lake. More of a neighborhood meeting point then tourist place.
If you are looking for a true reflection of local life, this is the perfect spot to spend some of your Lugano time.

The best espresso, hands down! Okay I haven’t had that much espresso, but after having 6 different cups in Bellagio, this bakery has had the best! On a saturday afternoon it was really busy. They have so many different kinds of breads, cookies, pastries, cookies, chocolate covered hazelnuts things. I asked for a cookie that caught my eye in the front case. According to my receipt it is called a Amaretti bianchi sciolti. Yes, get a dozen of those and a few espressos and you are set for the day!
Euros and Swiss francs excepted though change is only in francs. Espresso was about 2 Euros and the cookie was 1.20 Euro. And the Italian restaurant across the street was fantastic so you can have lunch there first.
