"Famous historical cafe that was a favourite hangout of Kerouac, featured in the Godfather, Shaft and Serpico, and had JFK do a speech outside once too. Apparently had the first espresso machine in the USA imported from Italy, which is still on display today, and was also the first place in America to serve cappuccino. Very traditional and historic feeling inside with over 80 separate artworks, including a painting from the school of Caravaggio. Worth a visit for all the reasons above, but also the coffee is great, the prices are reasonable and the service is also good."
