Pasticceria Tagliafico

About

Pasticceria Tagliafico is a historic Genovese bakery‑restaurant that dates back to the late nineteenth century. Founded by Giacomo Tagliafico, it has served generations of locals and visitors with its signature baked goods such as the traditional pandolce genovese, biscotti del Lagaccio and a wide range of cakes, pastries and savory items. The confectionery has evolved from a family‑owned shop in Piazza del Cavalletto to a modern destination that also offers catering services, an e‑shop and an extensive assortment of seasonal treats—from colomba pasquale to biscotti cuori. The building itself is a charming blend of historic charm and contemporary café culture, inviting guests to enjoy freshly baked goods and a warm atmosphere. Visitors can explore the menu online, place orders through the website, or simply drop in for a cup of the varied coffees and a slice of pastry right in the heart of Genova. The bakery is celebrated for its commitment to quality, heritage techniques and friendly service. Whether you are a tourist looking for an authentic Genovese sweet or a local craving a classic croissant, Pasticceria Tagliafico offers a diversified menu featuring morning pastries, classic cakes, cream cakes, baked goods, and elegantly packaged gift baskets. Its location on Via Galata in Genova makes it easily reachable, while its wheelchair‑accessible layout ensures a welcoming experience for all visitors. The bakery frequently hosts seasonal promotions and special product launches around holidays such as Christmas, Easter, the Feast of Saint John the Baptist and other local festivities. With a robust online shop, social‑media presence on Facebook and Instagram, and a responsive contact line, Pasticceria Tagliafico continues to thrive as a family‑owned culinary gem that blends tradition with modernity.
