About
Taormina has a pounding heart: the Mocambo. Founded in June 1952 by Mr. Carmelino Fichera, a man whose greatest wish was to create an ideal gathering place for all those who frequented and loved Taormina. He sought to offer his patrons a real temple of amusement and antertainment, yet, also from the comfort of one's armchair, a place to pause, watch and reflect.

Excellent drink spot / Aperitivo spot with extra people-watching opportunities. We sat down for an easy pre-dinner aperitivo on the first line towards the main corso of Taormina. The feeling is like being a part of the crowd - but you are actually sipping spritz.

We had a few nice cocktails on the terrace at this lovely place. Celebrating our anniversary with some pre-drinks before heading out for dinner.
The location is perfect
It was the international film festival so got to see some famous actors including Harrison Ford who was attending for his premier of his latest movie.
Don’t know how he does it at 80 years of age.
Anyway, drinks were great
Service was excellent
Highly recommend

The older man who served us was incredibly rude. Over priced and treated badly for no reason. You can find many better places where you will be treated respectfully.

We were tourists that were shown this place by a guide. We stopped back by to buy bottled water to support the restaurant for the historical significance of the mural on the wall. The cashier (who seemed to be the owner) was very rude. Then when we tried to sit at a table outside to rest for a minute in the shade and drink water, the owner yelled at us and told us that he didn't want us there despite most of the tables being empty. Go in and see the mural and leave, but please don't support this business.

Great place to sit and people watch. Live music added a great atmosphere with combo of Italian and English songs. Drinks reasonably priced.

Stopped for an afternoon cup of ‘English’ tea which was well served - very hot. Situated overlooking a pretty plaza and busy main street - a good place to watch the tourists mingle with locals - one even throwing a ball for his dog! Expensive but what do you expect for central Taormina.

Requested a glass of beer. Received a glass of cloudy beer in a Messina branded glass. Asked for a fresh glass due to it being cloudy and received another glass of cloudy beer in a Messina branded glass.
Toilets an absolute disgrace. Filthy, with cracked seats!
Steer clear! They are trading on their busy town square location and need to focus their attention on vastly improved hygiene standards, particularly during Covid-19!
Resting on their laurels.

A nice bar set right on the square so ideal for people watching ! Quite a touristy place and not cheap but they do bring you a generous selection of nibbles.
