Itineraries
Naples after dark — one evening, three quarters
Chiaia for aperitivo, the centro storico for dinner, the Vomero for the last drink.
The route
19:00 — Aperitivo in Chiaia. Walk Via Filangieri. Sit at Enoteca Belledonne for a glass of Falanghina. The crowd is the city's young professionals; the snacks come free.
20:30 — Dinner in the centro storico. Trattoria da Nennella in the Spagnoli (no booking, queue 30 min) or Mimì alla Ferrovia for the spaghetti vongole. Cash preferred.
23:00 — Last drink up in the Vomero. Antiche Cantine Sepe for natural wine. Last funicolare back at 00:30; after that, a €10 taxi.
