Campana Roastery — Restaurant in Pompei

WHAT??? How does this cafe only have 5 reviews????

You absolutely MUST come here for an espresso! I've been all around Napoli and the Amalfi coast searching for some good espresso... there seems to be a tendency all around the area for local baristas to either over-extract their beans or make the espresso with water that is way too hot. Not the case here!

Firstly, all the beans here are roasted on-site (the machine is right in the front of the store). The difference in taste is simply remarkable. I had a hybrid origin from beans that were 5 days fresh!!! They smelled incredible. The taste was a lighter fruitier roast. A bit sour and very refreshing. A few days before I had a heavier Cuban roast that was very good. Not AT ALL bitter from over-extraction, just the natural pleasant bitterness from the chocolate and tobacco notes.

My wife had the marocchino. She thoroughly enjoyed it. Essentially a macchiato with dark chocolate and cocoa powder. Yummy and unique!

The pastries are also notable. The cherry-cream croissant is quite good and not over-sweetened - A terrific side dish to your espresso.

Sitting outside was also beautiful. I enjoyed watching the people walking and driving by. It was on a beautiful sunny Sunday morning. I also enjoyed the little sweet treats: cornetto with jam and a little something I don’t remember the name.

It was also nice having a chat with the owner of the café, Paola Campana! She created an maxing place and runs it with passion for...

Great coffee, both specialty light roast beans or darker roasted classics can satisfy any age/preference customer. Don’t get distracted by the entrance - it is a small shop that has a functioning roastery inside. Though they have no tables yet, you will be offered a great fresh roasted coffee and also get to see the roasting itself happening if you are lucky:) Service and personality are very strong. The owner/roaster Rafael is very passionate about his company and coffee, this is the place where friendly atmosphere and strive for a good quality meet. Best coffee in Naples region, also 45 min walk or 15 min by bus from Pompey. We stayed in Air B&B close by and...
