Opened in 1999, the cafe occupies the very location where Coppola’s production company, American Zoetrope, once hummed with activity. Films like The Godfather II and Apocalypse Now were brought to life within these walls, and Coppola’s fingerprints are still everywhere you look.

The cafe transforms into a charming wine bar in the evenings, offering a sophisticated space to unwind and soak up the Coppola ambiance.
