Welcome to Turin!

The birthplace of the traditional Vermouth!

The historical caffè Elena is located in the central square of Piazza Vittorio Veneto!


Caffè Elena is one of the city’s most historic bars. Its history dates back 130 years, and it has always been a place for meetings and cultural debates. The establishment has retained its old style and is very charming. It is said that at the time of the bar’s opening (in 1894), it was used by Giuseppe Carpano as a laboratory to create what is now one of the city’s most famous alcoholic beverages, vermouth.


Opening hours:

Monday to Thursday 08.00 – 00.00, Friday 08.00 – 01.30, Saturday 10.00 – 01.30 and Sunday 10.00 – 00.00. (Wednesday CLOSE)

ADDRESS:

Piazza Vittorio Veneto 5, 10123 Turin


“As soon as you step inside, you’re immersed in a historic spot in the city of Turin! I tasted the typical Vermouth, a very unique aromatized wine, paired with a warm meal. I recommend it for a quick snack break, and if the weather allows, sit outside with a view of the beautiful Piazza Vittorio!
