Urbanis

Urbanis bar was founded in 1919. It's one of the oldest in the city that is still open today. It's just behind the Italian unit square, in a nice pedestrian street full of shops. The bar was formerly a bakery in the early part of the 19th century but was converted into this cafe which is nicely decorated and very convenient if you go shopping in the area or want to relax after a day's visit. Prices, as in any historical and tourist place, are quite high, but nothing like a coffee would cost in Rome or Florence. Trieste is still a small town and much cheaper. The bar is known for its beautiful mosaic-covered floor.
