The Grande Cafe Bistrot, located in the Maghetti district of Lugano, is a well-known landmark and meeting place for all Lugano residents and tourists.
Our family-run restaurant includes a terrace and an inner courtyard. The kitchen, always open, offers seasonal a la carte menus with excellent quality ingredients.

Terrace
Hung on a quiet thoroughfare next to the San Rocco Square, our terrace is a verdant corner where you can refresh and experience moments of taste and conviviality surrounded by a relaxing atmosphere. From breakfasts to aperitifs, from tasty family meals to cocktails among friends.
Interior Courtyard
The pride of our Bistro is the inner courtyard. A summer garden, but also an urban oasis that can be enjoyed on sunny days all year round. Vegetation, floral scents and the backdrop of the sky provide the setting for well-deserved lunch breaks, romantic dinners or exclusive private events.
