Caffe Reggio

Caffe Reggio is a New York City coffeehouse first opened in 1927 at 119 Macdougal Street in the heart of Manhattan's Greenwich Village.

Italian cappuccino was introduced in America by the founder of Caffe Reggio, Domenico Parisi, in the early 1920s.

[2] The Caffe Reggio has been featured in many movies, including The Godfather Part II, Next Stop, Greenwich Village, The Kremlin Letter, Shaft, Serpico, The Next Man, In Good Company, Inside Llewyn Davis, The Sun Is Also a Star[3] and others.

Caffe Reggio has a bench from a palazzo of the Florentine Medici family of Renaissance fame.

The bench is not roped off and guests can sit on it and admire a painting from an artist of the school of Caravaggio.
