About This Spot

Stepping into ALCI Condividi il Momento, located right in the heart of Novara’s Piazza Giacomo Matteotti, is like slipping into a well-loved neighborhood nook where time slows down just enough to savor the little moments. The atmosphere strikes a warm, lively balance — a bustling yet inviting bar where the chatter of relaxed conversations and the clink of glasses blend effortlessly with the subtle hum of the city outside. Whether you choose a cozy seat indoors, surrounded by thoughtful design touches and genuine smiles, or unwind in the heated outdoor area that captures the piazza’s gentle pulse, there’s a sense of belonging here that invites you to stay a while.

This is a place where the ritual of gathering takes center stage: an aperitivo shared with friends over carefully crafted cocktails, from fresh Mojitos to the elegantly balanced Gin Tonics, or a pause in the day to savor something sweet and comforting, like a pistachio brioche or velvety cioccolata con panna. The menu flows naturally with the mood — light bites, fresh salads, and flavor-filled focacce accompany moments of conversation and laughter, setting the perfect stage for those leisurely pauses that feel private even amidst the crowd.

ALCI’s charm is not just in its food and drink but in the way it embraces the everyday magic of coming together. The staff’s warmth and attentiveness quietly echo the genuine care that makes you feel this is less a stop on your route and more an extension of your day’s rhythm. It’s no surprise this spot has become a favorite for locals and travelers alike, drawn by its sincere atmosphere, the lively yet unhurried vibe, and its undeniable invitation to share a moment worth lingering over.

The food is amazing, especially the mozzarella balls and affogato coffee! If you are in Novara, you must visit this cafe.

Nice place to chill out in Novara center. Mosquitoes were an issue but I guess it’s the season

Such a cute and lively spot for aperitivo! We went yesterday and loved the vibe—great menu, busy in the best way, lovely decor, friendly staff, and even a cute bathroom (always a win). My husband grew up in the area, and since we return at least once a year, we were really excited to come here. We started outside in the heated area and moved inside to warm up a bit. My one piece of feedback—and it’s an important one for those who are sensitive—is the very strong scent inside. Whether from perfume or something else, it was quite intense. My husband is allergic to a specific popular fragrance and unfortunately had to leave after one drink when his throat began to react. Even without an allergy, I found it overpowering. I’d gently suggest considering a more neutral, scent-free approach—many places are moving in that direction to be more inclusive. We truly loved everything else and would absolutely come back… as long as we can sit outside.

Ambience and location fabulous. You can sit inside on lounges or outside. Service rapid and friendly. Apperativo was interesting, but nothing spectacular considering the location and ambiance. I was expecting more. Cocktail ok. Seemed a little on the weaker side.
