The only and best speciality coffee in Diano Marina. I was so happy when they opened few years back they make coffee with love one thing that these years in Italy become rare ...I have best coffee anywhere but Italy (Naples excluded ...of course !) But sometimes you can still find a good espresso in Italy too and indeed Caprice is one of those places reminds Italians to carry on doing things, given for granted, with love as preparing a great espresso - or flat white too ;-) for the globe trotter tribe.

Ideally located in the center of diano marina, in a pedestrian street, we had really nice happy hours with their local tapas (a series of home made breads sliced and with very tasty spreading sauce. A choice of black olive spread, white cheese with delicious tangerine jam, vegetables and cheese baked, and more. The plates were explained to us by one of the staff, overall service is fast and very friendly. Prices are excellent for the quality and size of tapas provided. We paid less than 10 euros for the drinks and tapas. We’ve been there twice and quality remains equally great!

Nice location in center city, with outside terrace. During happy hours, a nice plate of local and tasty tapas. Drinks and coffees are original, not the mainstream ones. Team is super friendly.
