The Soda Jerk

The Soda Jerk is a cornerstone of Verona's nightlife, operating for nearly a decade with an exclusive speakeasy vibe featuring an inconspicuous door and bell entrance. Founded by Claudio Perinelli and Thomas Bianco, the cozy space showcases timeless design with wood, marble, and iron elements, complemented by low lighting and neon ambiance. Under bartender Andrea Giavoni's leadership, the drinks list changes every six months with ten signature drinks and classic preparations, including the spicy house specialty El Gianissero, while the always-open kitchen offers tasty informal dishes. Located at Vicolo Quadrelli 5, the bar maintains a 4.5 out of 5 rating on Restaurant Guru with nearly 2,300 reviews.
