Address: Viale Armando Diaz 19-27, 09125 Cagliari
Brinkhoff's grills late on Via del Pozzetto in Cagliari, a German beer hall of pretzels, steaks and grappa whose kitchen runs on until 02:00.
Signature drink: German beer and grappa
Food: Grill and pretzels
Order: A grilled steak with a stein of German beer.
Tip: The kitchen stays on until 02:00, which covers the gap after concerts and late films; there is an outdoor space for the warm months.
Il Birrificio di Cagliari brews on Via Newton and pours its own beer beside grilled meat, the city's own brewpub rather than another bottle bar.
Signature drink: House-brewed lager
Food: Grilled meat
Order: The house lager alongside the grilled beef.
Tip: It took a Barcelona Beer Challenge gold for its Tuvixeddu; it sits out by the ring road, so it is a taxi rather than a walk from the Marina.
Antico Caffè has traded on Piazza Costituzione in Cagliari since 1838, a protected historic room under the Bastione with pastries from 07:00.
Signature drink: Evening aperitivo
Food: Pastries and plates
Order: An espresso and a pastry at the marble counter.
Tip: Italy's culture ministry lists the room as protected; tables outside face the Bastione di Saint Remy and run until 02:00.
Libarium Nostrum drinks on the medieval ramparts of Castello in Cagliari, a terrace over the rooftops serving cocktails, antipasti and thin pizza.
Signature drink: Alligatore, calvados and Drambuie
Food: Antipasti and pizza
Order: The Alligatore, calvados and Drambuie.
Tip: Danilo Argiolas opened it in 1993 and the terrace still fills at sunset; get there before 19:00 for a rampart table.
Spirits Boutique opened on Via Dettori in Cagliari's Marina in December 2021, mixologist Emilio Rocchino's vintage room behind a wall of rum and gin.
Signature drink: Myrtle-led cocktails
Food: Snacks
Order: A cocktail built on Sardinian myrtle or mirto.
Tip: The back bar is the draw, whisky, rum, gin and vermouth from everywhere; it opens from midday and runs late, with snacks rather than a kitchen.
INU Sardinian Wine Bar works Via Sassari in Cagliari as an island-only list, boards of pecorino and salumi built to whatever you are drinking.
Signature drink: Cannonau by the glass
Food: Sardinian boards
Order: Lardo with myrtle on warm bruschetta.
Tip: The boards are customisable, so ask for Sardinian cheeses only and let them pour a Cannonau or a Vermentino against them.
