Close to Corso Italia, stop at Fauno Bar after shopping. Having coffee is an obligatory part of Italian culture and no trip to Sorrento would be complete without it. Have your coffee al banco (coffee at the counter) as Italians do, or get a table overlooking Piazza Tasso. This way, you’ll enjoy the theatrical passing of Vespas (the traditional Italian motorcycle) or people-watching.
Fauno bar is great for a post-shopping energy boost, as it serves artisanal ice creams and local patisserie. Try the Sfogliatella, the classic Neapolitan puff pastry filled with whipped cream. Don’t expect the waiter to engage in conversation with you as this is the most popular café in town. Nevertheless, it’s a great place to stop and you’ll feel right at the heart of Sorrento’s world.
Address: Piazza Torquato Tasso 13, Sorrento

GRAND HOTEL ESCELSIOR .. Via Tass0 34, Sorrento ITALY
Sorrento is all about lemon gardens. I can hardly think of anything better than relaxing in the shade of fragrant lemon trees. If you’re looking for a truly traditional meal, go to Il Parrocchiano. Founded in 1860, this three-generation business claims to be the owner of the ancient pasta dish cannelloni.
This restaurant has an ancient tradition. In fact, the place was originally founded by Antonio Ercolano, a seminarian who learned to cook in the kitchen of the local archbishop’s palace. Later, he opened a tiny tavern called La Favorita. The tavern became popular over time and Antonino gained the name o Parrucchiano, parish priest in the Neapolitan dialect, for his previous spiritual vocation.
Today, the restaurant is managed by Enzo Manniello. Apart from delicious cannelloni, all traditional pasta recipes are great at this restaurant. Try a classic lasagna or the Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, which literally translates to “gnocchi cooked the Sorrento way,” for a taste of the Italian South.
Known for its spectacular patio and setting, this popular restaurant is busy on holidays and weekends. So, I suggest booking a table at Il Parrocchiano on a weekday. Go for a table on the patio to dine under fragrant lemon tree.
