What is it? A pint-sized piece of history in the heart of Potts Point.
Why we love it: Old is new again at Piccolo Bar. After nearly 70 years as a stuanchly Italian coffee shop, the 20-seater was taken over by hospitality stalwarts and beautifully preserved. Piccolo is a tightly-packed step back in time serving up an enormous selection of amari, Italian-style cocktails, and a seriously good LP's hot dog to boot. Warm hospitality, incredible Italian-style drinks and a surprisingly extensive snack list, this slice of history is fully geared for now.
Time Out tip: Get in early and stay there late. This place packs out quickly.
