    Considering Venice started the trade in spices, and it is Italy where food is supposed to be good, we found the food tasteless and basic. In fact we mainly ate from the sandwich bars which did serve delicious cheap warm paninni for around £3.00

    Our very first meal at the pizziera on Lido did not include a service charge but we thought the 'coperto' which was on the receipt was the tip so we didn't offer the waiter a tip...oops! The coperto is the cover charge made when you don't have the set meal, ie the full 3 courses.

  • Restaurant Name: Harry's Bar

    Harry's Bar is near San Marco and it is a world famous bar where they make Belinis. The white paech season (June-July) is the best time to sample Belinis. But you will be refused entry if you are not smartly dressed (ie no jeans or shorts or trainers).

    Cafe Florian: San Marco pavement cafes

  • Restaurant Name: Florian's

    You must try Florian's pavement cafe in San Marco itself. Many famous writers used to spend their time here. You will be charged extra if the band are playing, but it is no more expensive than the other cafes which don't have the same history or service. Even so expect to pay around £4.00 for a cup of coffee

    Comparison: more expensive than average

    Address: San Marco
    Directions: Stand with the basilica behind you and Florian's is half way down the square on the left. It was wicker chairs and a band.
