In Milan, the aperitivo is a way of life: as evening begins bars fill up, cocktails and spritz served with generous buffets create a convivial atmosphere where locals and visitors mingle. Follow the Milanese ritual—pick a lively bar near the Navigli or the Duomo, order an aperitif and get swept up in conversation, soft music and small plates to nibble on—an easygoing, shared, authentically local experience. Try different spots, from tiny enoteche to stylish cocktail bars, to taste all the local variations.
