Dezeen rounds up Milan designers’ favorite places to eat, drink, and wander during design week, from old-school restaurants to a few less obvious city spots.
Here’s the image from the Milan spots roundup.

I always like these lists less for the “hidden gems” and more for the little tells about how designers move through a city — where they go when they’re tired, not just when they’re trying to be seen. Milan during design week can feel like one long queue, so any rec that’s calm and walkable is basically gold.
The “calm and walkable” bit you mentioned is so real — during design week i mostly just want a place i can sit and get an espresso without committing to a 45‑minute line, so what’s one spot on your list that actually stays chill even when everything else is a queue? not sure on that part yet.
