Must order: Zuppa di cozze with pane carasau, then seadas.
Tip: Open every day and late, which makes it the fallback when the smaller trattorias in the Marina have shut their kitchens.
Address: Via Baylle 39, 09124 Cagliari
Francis Drake on Via Oristano is where Cagliari eats at three in the morning, a kitchen running to 05:00 with pizza, pasta and grilled plates.
Try: Pizza, pasta and grilled plates
Order: A pizza at an hour nothing else is open.
Tip: The kitchen runs to 05:00, which no other room in central Cagliari matches; expect a queue after 02:00.
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.
Try: 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.
Libarium Nostrum drinks on the medieval ramparts of Castello in Cagliari, a terrace over the rooftops serving cocktails, antipasti and thin pizza.
