Bar Lucio - Kensington, Sydney

Bar Lucio in Kensington offers a taste of Naples in Sydney’s suburbs, thanks to owner and renowned pizza maker Lucio Del Falco. This cozy corner coffee bar entices locals with its inviting atmosphere and delectable Italian treats. From the moment you step through the cobalt-painted door, you’re greeted by a bustling space adorned with a mix of marble counters, wicker chairs, and a tempting display of house-made pastries including Nutella bomboloni and pistachio cannoli.
