Caffeteca Gardelli Specialty Coffees

Cafe in Forlì-Cesena

Caffeteca Gardelli Specialty Coffee is the flagship cafe of Rubens Gardelli, located in his birth city of Forlì. Almost two decades after beginning his coffee journey working in his mother's traditional family cafe, Rubens chose this new location to create the Caffeteca, his dream specialty cafe in late 2020. An open, bright, minimalist style and his brand's signature pastel pink brushed delicately throughout the interior.

"Acidity is not a crime" greets you as you enter the front door, a clear sign of what to expect when sampling their range of specialty roasted coffees. The Caffeteca Gardelli Specialty Coffee offers a full selection of Gardelli Specialty Coffees beans served in a range of different brew methods. It is a playground for coffee lovers.
