As mentioned before, the real attraction of Brera is its nightlife; once made up of piano bars, the district is now full of bars and restaurants. The Giamaica, at the end of Via Brera, was popular with intellectuals in the 1960's, and is still a good place for an aperitif. There's also Moscatelli, a small bar with a huge choice of wines, and el Tombon de San Marc, the first English pub in Milan, which also serves sandwiches, cold dishes and salads. Moving towards Via Bramante, you'll see the new Frescobar - a good place for an evening drink or Sunday brunch. The tiny ice-cream parlour at 14, Via Solferino is perfect for those with a sweet tooth - there are no seats but the great flavours more than compensate for that. More international ice cream is sold at Haagen Dazs, opposite Giamaica; try the hazelnut, walnut, vanilla and cookie flavours.

In the most acclaimed, publicized, and talked about zone of Milan of the magnificent years of Milan for "drinking", in Brera, one finds the Jamaica. While it was a meeting place for poets and artists at a time when the world was in a state of revolutionary turmoil, today at the Jamaica students and people of every age meet looking more to drink and have fun than to dwell upon the best social systems. Nonetheless, the Jamaica conserves all of its charm of a vanguard bar with its sparse and simple furnishings which help one to immerse oneself in the days when fashion, decorations and superfluous taste were everything. The tables which today occupy the street, a street free from automobiles, allow you to enjoy a cocktail a few metres from the Pinacoteca di Brera. Who knows, in the evening you could even meet a new boat designer or sailor, more or less by profession who have all but replaced the old cultural vanguard.

Moscatelli


The traditions of old Milan
46 Corso Garibaldi

Unchanged for more than 100 years, it oozes stories of old Milan. The motto of Giuseppe Moscatelli is famous, "Water is for rogues, the flood is the proof". Here there is only wine, for all occasions, of all types, by the bottle or the glass. This place is a tradition of old Milan, you can see it in the décor (1950s) and hear it in the speech (Milanese dialect). Lots and lots of good times and cheer.

Tombon de San Marc


Popular Italian-Style Pub
Via San Marco 20
Milan 20121
Italy

In the center of the Brera district, this historic pub has been a favorite with Milanesi for many years. Many generations have enjoyed and continue to enjoy this pub which is thought to be one of the oldest in the city, yet still attracts a varied crowd of students, professionals and many foreigners. All the traditional pub drinks are found here, from draught beer to cocktails and long drinks, accompanied by unmissable sandwiches and snacks which are available until late at night. Don't miss the happy hour which is sure to surprise you!! This is an excellent place for anyone who is a bit fed up with usual pubs, and wants to taste a bit of tradition, whilst immersing oneself in a crowd of like minded people.
