RADAELLI SA - Caslano

Swing by if you're in the area to have a really good coffee and pastries for breakfast. The place is frequented by locals and is always full of bright eyed smiling residents. The service is prompt and friendly although they only speak Italian and a bit of German. Nevertheless the menu is easy to make out and order from.They have a nice display of a wide range of pastries and other baked goods. They also offer sandwiches and other such items for a light lunch.Should I return to the area, I'll definitely be back for a delicious espresso.

Coffee is something I simply cannot live without. Since we were staying in a studio with only a dodgy coffee capsule machine, I was pleased to find Tea Room Laura which is a local Panetteria-Pasticceria serving pastries and baked goods aas well as really good coffees.I made my way each morning as the other half snored in bed. Delicious coffees, tasty pastries and friendly service. Bear in mind the servers spoke no English, only Italian and a bit of German. No worries as there was a menu that listed all the items and was easy to comprehend and read out.The place is frequented by locals and just the kind of café where I like to get my morning cup of Joe. I always had a large espresso with cream and it was perfect. Coming from rip-off Zürich, CHF 3.30 for a large good quality coffee is an absolute steal! I often drank 2 in a row as I observed the locals in sleepy Caslano. To accompany the coffee I had a custard stuffed brioche. The pastry was buttery and rich, the custard was average.If I return to Caslano, which I found quite boring to be honest, at least I have a decent local café to go to.
