Sourcing

So I took out two references and then tagged it as unreferenced?? The cafe's own website is not an independent source, and the Lonely Planet entry as of now does not support anything in the article: Noyster (talk), 15:48, 24 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

I do not disagree with the above, although I though the Lonely planet commentary was apt, and somewhat independent. Anywho, it still is a worthy topic, even if we need new sources for it. The caffe in many cities is worthy of historical if not artistic importance.Rococo1700 (talk) 02:55, 25 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Freemasonry

edit

TG2 dossier of 8 August 2020, again aired on 5 September 2020, showed a brief history of the Caffè Gambrinus. In the nineteenth century, it was frequented by the Princess Sissi and by Jean Paul Sartre, among others.

Many Presidents of the Republic of Italy were used to have a coffee break at the Gambrinus, normally on the first day of each new year. In 1999, Carlo Azeglio Ciampi spent here the first 2 euros after the admission of Italy in the official EU monetary system.

On March 2, 2015, Pope Bergoglio had a private visit in the bar. Italian singer Andre Bocelli registered at their piano nine songs distributed in a CD of Neapolitan music.

The bar is located near the Teatro san Carlo and is a notable point of meeting between musicians and orchestra directors before their performances. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.223.69.81 (talk) 11:02, 6 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
