The wonderful Caffé Vittoria is one of Boston's old-fashioned favorite dining options, an Italian café with a ton of character loved by tourists and locals…
Going strong for nearly 100 years, Caffé Vittoria is a unique part of the city’s heritage — and the coffee and pastry’s aren’t bad eitherThe North End is one of the most charming sections of Boston . It has the feel of a European neighborhood within a city that looks more European than perhaps any other major city in the United States.
Hanover Street is the main drag of the North End, and it is lined with countless restaurants, cafes and food shops, most of which are Italian, though more and more options for other types of cuisine can be found these days both on Hanover, Salem and other streets within the neighborhood. There are indeed so many places for food on Hanover that it can be pretty overwhelming, making it easy to walk right by some must-visit spots.
But once you take a step inside, you’ll realize that Vittoria is a particularly unique spot that oozes character, with its tin ceiling, mosaic tile floor, marble tables, metal-rimmed chairs, old-fashioned hanging lights and walls adorned with all kinds of knick-knacks, artwork and old photos. The cafe is made up of several different sections, including two front rooms that have their own entrances a few more dining areas out back, and a cigar bar in the basement.
The food options include classic Italian pastries and baked goods such as biscotti, cannoli, sfogliatella, tiramisu, lobster tails, cheesecake, limoncello cake, chocolate ganache, ricotta pie, napoletana and gelato, the last of which includes spumoni, a colorful and delicious treat that includes layers of different flavors. Biscotti options include one covered with chocolate and another with a mix of almond and anisette that is perfect to dip into a cup of hot coffee.
