"The station is nice and the coffee beanery has a decent selection of sandwiches, yoghurts, muffins etc for the long train journey north."

"Awesome crab cake sandwich, lovely place."

"Frequent free shuttles to Murano, in the mornings. They take you back to Sant Marco, but beware, Fornace Venier is pretty expensive if you do end up buying anything."

"Free wifi, but a shower is 350 baht. Self-serve booze, decent sandwiches, peaceful."

"Food moderate, but cheerful atmosphere and free wifi...."

"Very cool - bit empty on a Saturday night in April...busier for Sunday brunch, apparently. Mojitos, ahi tuna and general ambience are very good."
