Ceresio 7 opened in September 2013 on the penthouse of the former Enel headquarters in Isola, designed by Dimore Studio for Dean and Dan Caten of Dsquared2, with two outdoor pools, twin terraces and 360-degree sightlines across the Bosco Verticale and Unicredit Tower.
TipCocktails run around 22 euros and pool access is dining-guest only; book the terrace at sunset for the strongest light on the skyline. M5 Monumentale is the closest metro.
Bar Magenta has run on the corner of Via Carducci near Sant'Ambrogio for over a century, with an Art Nouveau room, tiled floors and a late-running counter that hosts small live music nights, songwriter sets and a student-heavy aperitivo through the week.
TipOpen into the small hours daily; the live music programme is small-stage and acoustic-leaning. Coffee, beer and tramezzini are the daytime stock.

Radio Rooftop sits on the tenth floor of the ME Milan Il Duca hotel above Piazza della Repubblica, with a wraparound terrace, daily DJ sets and a cocktail programme that runs alongside the Aldo Rossi-designed lobby below.
TipA dedicated lift on Via Marco Polo bypasses the hotel reception; book the outdoor terrace for the skyline sightline rather than the indoor lounge.
Terrazza Aperol crowns Il Mercato del Duomo on the corner of Piazza del Duomo and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, with a second-floor terrace pointed at the cathedral facade and a kitchen that pairs aperitivo plates with the canonical Aperol Spritz.
TipWalk-in tables on the terrace go to the patient queue on weekend evenings; reserve via the site to lock in a Duomo-facing seat at sunset.
Terrazza Gallia sits seven floors above Piazza Duca d'Aosta on top of the Excelsior Hotel Gallia opposite Stazione Centrale, with chef Vincenzo Lebano cooking under consultancy from the Cerea brothers of Da Vittorio and a wraparound bar terrace open from noon to late.
TipThe bar runs through the dinner service so cocktails without dining are possible at the terrace counter; the view picks up the Pirelli tower and the Porta Nuova skyline.
1930 hides a members-only speakeasy in the basement of its sister bar Mag Cafe in the Cinque Vie quarter, with a password-and-membership entry, an antique vinyl room and Flavio Angiolillo's cocktail programme that has held a World's 50 Best Bars slot since 2019.
TipMembership and the password come via the Farmily Group sister venues; reservations are required and there is one seating per evening. No street signage at the door.
