DA VINCENZO 1958
Our favourite restaurant in Positano. We will return to this restaurant year by year, time and time again. This family-owned restaurant makes Italian cuisine at its very best. We are not the only ones who love this place. Da Vincenzo is recommended in the Michelin guide every year for its home made and classic cuisine.
The food is homemade, the wine is local and the atmosphere is fantastic, and late at night you will hear the chef is calling the bell. This night is good! We love to sit out on the street and look at everything and everyone who moves by. This is an incredibly popular restaurant that you have to book in advance. People are in line to eat here every night. The restaurant is also located high above the busy port of Positano, here you can avoid the large crowds of day tourists coming and going from the ferries. At Da Vincenzo, you have quality time, but still it is quit and down to earth.
PALAZZO MURAT
This is a beautiful hotel located in the busy pedestrian street of Positano. It has a beautiful retreated garden. Even if it is located in the busiest street, you will not notice anything about it when you enter the garden. Here you can enjoy both lunch and dinner, and here you will find tranquility.
In the evening, the garden is beautifully illuminated by lamps hanging in the trees, a quiet and softened atmosphere. This is really a beautiful place. They have a large wine cellar, and the dishes served are of the utmost quality. You should book in advance!
FRANCO'S BAR
This is a bar for those of you who like high end. This popular and luxurious bar belongs to the luxury hotel Sirinuse. Their outdoor bars has a stunning view of Positano.

And if you stay at this hotel you will also get breakfast served on the beautiful terrace.
LA PIZZERIA LA PERGOLA
Why not do as the inhabitants themselves in Positano, bring a pizza to the beach late in the evening, when the ferries have stopped, when the crowds have left Positano for the day. Sit down and enjoy the sunset with a “Slize of Italy” in your hand.
OSTERIA LE TRE SORELLE
This restaurant is located right by the beach near the port and is a popular restaurant. At Tre Sorelle, «the three sisters», the food is nice. The restaurant is located close to the busy harbour of Positano. Just outside og the restaurant, more or less everyone who comes to visit the city will pass by. This is the perfect place to sit down for a Pizza and watch the world go by. Tre Sorelle also has a wine bar and shop at Piazza dei Mulini, with an exciting selection of wines from the region.
BAR PARADISO
This bar may be small in size, but they make the best pastries here, really nice pizza and they amazing ice cream. This is also a popular place to eat an authentic Italian breakfast.
LO GUARRACINO
Moving somewhat away from the bustling port of Positano and toward the more serene and slightly quieter Fornillo Beach, you will come across the Ristorante Lo Guarracino. They serve simple, delicious authentic Napolitan cuisine and have a lovely, little porch by the sea! They have the most amazing view of the sea!
BAR INTERNAZIONALE
This bar is graciously located, especially if you go to Positano after a hike up the mountains, from Monterpertuso or Nocelle. If you are down in the city, the trip up to Bar Internazionale is quite ruthless, as it is located on the top of the city at Chiesa Nuova. This bar is one of the oldest in Positano. It is very popular among locals and tourists. This is a meeting place in Positano and here everyone knows each other. Nice downside with a brown bar feeling.
