Orange Bar / Café / Lounge

Dorsoduro, Venice –

With its vibrant orange interior, spicy house music, and abstract art, Orange may be the hippest bar in Santa Margherita and attracts an equally trendy and energetic clientele.

The locale, which occupies the most expansive area on the square, offers a variety of settings for socializing, from the front terrace and the inside bar to the balcony and the rear garden courtyard where patrons gather under large umbrellas, illuminated only by trees wrapped in twinkling lights.

The simple layout makes it easy for flirtatious guests to socialize with one stylish group after the other, while the pulsing music and soaring energy often transform into impromptu dance sessions.

Equally attractive are the affordable cocktails and the extensive menu of appetizers, and the resulting competition for the attention of the busy staff becomes just another part of the evening’s entertainment.

During the day, Orange’s shaded seating on the dynamic square offers a delightful view of the continuous parade of faces, fashion, and performers.

Day or night, Orange is one of the best bets for meeting new people among the reliably outgoing and sociable clientele.
