Tucked away in the charming Dorsoduro district, you'll find this gem of a bacaro, a traditional Venetian tavern buzzing with a friendly mix of locals and visitors. Step up to the counter and choose from a delicious array of cicchetti—Venice's answer to tapas—and pair them with a refreshing spritz or a glass of local wine. The real magic, however, is the view from just outside; you can stand by the canal and watch the gondola craftsmen at work in the historic Squero di San Trovaso, one of the last traditional boatyards in the city. It's the perfect spot for an authentic and affordable taste of Venetian life.
