Bacaro Jazz ★ 4.0
San Marco · Salizada del Fontego dei Tedeschi 5546, San Marco, 30124 Venezia VE
Bacaro Jazz has run on Salizada del Fontego dei Tedeschi a hundred metres from the Rialto Bridge since 1997, with recorded and occasional live jazz.
Tip: The bar runs straight through service so you can drop in for a cicchetto at 18:00 or a cocktail at 01:00. Cocktails sit around twelve euros and the room fills past midnight on weekends.
Bar Dandolo ★ 4.5
Castello · Riva degli Schiavoni 4196, 30122 Venezia
Bar Dandolo sits among marble columns and Murano chandeliers on the ground floor of the fourteenth century Palazzo Dandolo at the Hotel Danieli.
