WELCOME TO PICCOLO CAFE’, BOLOGNA, ITALIA.

Take five minutes for yourself. You deserve it. Close your eyes and imagine you are in Bologna, Italy. 

The sun is up in the sky. It is a warm spring day, birds are chirping all around, people are quietly talking in Italian next to you while enjoying a sunday stroll in Piazza Maggiore.

You calmly walk through the people smiling and talking until a smell catch your attention: it’s the bolognese sauce just pour on fresh home-made tagliatelle in a Trattoria next to the local portici.

The smell is so alluring that without control over your body you find yourself in front of the restaurant door. In a moment, you place your hand on the door knob and push it with energy, the smell goes stronger and stronger, the air around you got foggy, something is wrong, and…

Oh well, I am sorry, the two minutes expired, time to open your eyes! You are still in New York City. Winter is just started, tax season is approaching, you have to go to work.

But there is nothing to worry about. The smell that you fell in love with it wasn’t just a dream, that is a reality: it comes from our three Piccolo Cafe locations in New York City, and you can have it NOW, no need to dream or pay a fair trip to Europe. 

Piccolo Cafe brings at your doorstep the real taste of Bologna and Italy. The only thing you need to do now is just to transform your dream into reality and push OUR doors knob now.
