M5 Monumentale Milano

Royal coffee, underground.

Il caffè dei re, sotto Milano.

An espresso bar inside M5 Monumentale station: a marble counter, olive walls and a gold crown on the wall. Stay thirty seconds for an espresso or the whole evening for a spritz.

The Rous Caffè counter: white marble, a glass case of cornetti, an espresso machine under black pendant lamps
Close-up of the two-group Faema espresso machine
Two groups, no waiting.

01 Partenze · Departures

Trains every three minutes. Espresso every thirty seconds.

The M5 runs about every three minutes. You still have time for a coffee at the bar, Milanese style, and the board shows what's leaving the counter right now.

03 Il posto · The place

Marble. Olive. A gold crown, underground.

Above us is the Cimitero Monumentale, Milan's open-air museum of marble and bronze. We brought a bit of that down to the platform: a marble counter, deep olive walls, red pipes left exposed overhead, and our crowned R in gold.
