"Uncover one of the smallest bars in the world, located along the side of the beautiful Naviglio Grande canal. Based at number 43 Ripa di Porta Ticinese, an elusive doorway can be found. It is recommended to book one of their one hour time slots online as the private bar can only fit a small handful of people. If you miss a slot, you can always order takeaway drinks through their mysterious window, where you can only see the bartender’s hands. The speakeasy style bar is immersed in an intriguing sense of mystery and ambiguity creating an ambience of wonder and amazement. I have yet to visit the inside of the bar but have heard it resembles a cabinet of curiosities which is also apparent through their extraordinary window display. "

"Tiny bar with incredible drinks and service (only holds like three people) BUT you can get takeaways so that are supercool and are not that pricy! This owned but the farmily group... so it's a must-visit especially if you cannot get into 1930."
