And if you&#8217;ve never tasted Naples&#8217; pizza before, it&#8217;s a great place to start. Its pizzas are traditionally Neapolitan, with thick, airy crusts, <em>huge <\/em>portions (don&#8217;t be afraid to share!), fresh ingredients, and cheap prices (a <em>margherita <\/em>costs just 5 euros). So is the decor, which is no-frills and basic, and the clientele, which includes lots of locals.<\/p>\n<p>Believe it or not, the service is so fast here, you <em>can <\/em>order and (if you&#8217;re fast!) eat a whole pizza in 15 minutes. We know because we just did it. It&#8217;s much more comfortable, though, if you have about a half an hour here. Don&#8217;t have that much time? No problem\u2014just ask for a pizza to go (<em>&#8220;da portare via&#8221;) <\/em>and eat it on the train.<\/p>\n<p>Da Pellone is located at Via Nazionale 93, an 8-minute walk from the station; when you exit the train station onto Piazza Garibaldi, turn right and then right again onto Corso Meridionale. Take your third left, which should be Via Nazionale, and Da Pellone is three streets up.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Second_stop_Pasticceria_Attanasio_the_best_sfogliatelle_youve_ever_tasted\"><\/span>Second stop, Pasticceria Attanasio: the best <em>sfogliatelle <\/em>you&#8217;ve ever tasted<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_26379\" style=\"width: 1610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26379\" class=\"wp-image-26379 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/zc7rkvntykq.jpg\" alt=\"a sfogliatelle sweet pastry, filled with ricotta cream, one of the Best Eats Near Naples' Train Station\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/zc7rkvntykq.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/zc7rkvntykq-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/zc7rkvntykq-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-26379\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Taste a delicious Sfogliatelle.

Although the bakery serves up several types of pastries, the thing to get, as the sign above the door saying &#8220;<em>Sfogliatella calda&#8221; <\/em>tells you, is <em>sfogliatella, <\/em>that traditional Neapolitan pastry made up of leaves of thin, crispy dough surrounding a semi-sweet ricotta filling. Ask for &#8220;<em>sfogliatella riccia<\/em>&#8221; if you want the traditional, ridged kind; the &#8220;<em>sfogliatella frolla<\/em>&#8221; is also amazing, but it looks more like a pocket of dough.<\/p>\n<p>To get your hands on either one, both of which come fresh out of the oven before your eyes, go to the cash register first to pay and get your number, then wait until it comes up on the sign. This is a popular place, so be patient if it takes a couple of minutes. Although with the delicious smell of cinnamon in the air, we can&#8217;t complain.<\/p>\n<p>Pasticceria Attanasio is located at Vico Ferrovia 1, a 2-minute walk from the train station; to get there from the station, just walk out onto Piazza Garibaldi, walking along the piazza on its northern side, until you see Vico Ferrovia on your right.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Third_stop_Caffe_Mexico_for_a_pick-me-up_at_Naples_best-loved_coffee_bar\"><\/span>Third stop,\u00a0Caff\u00e8 Mexico<em>: <\/em> for a pick-me-up at Naples&#8217; best-loved coffee bar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_22326\" style=\"width: 1210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22326\" class=\"wp-image-22326 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/coffee-and-pastry-venice.jpg\" alt=\"Various coffee cups and small pastries on a bar in Italy.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/coffee-and-pastry-venice.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.walksofitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/coffee-and-pastry-venice-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-22326\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">At Caff\u00e8 Mexico, making coffee is a science<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><em>Why: <\/em><\/strong>Because you haven&#8217;t had coffee until you&#8217;ve had it in Italy&#8217;s south, and this is one of the best places to try it.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Time it takes, including walking there: <\/em>5 minutes if you&#8217;re walking from Pasticceria Attanasio or from the train station.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/devourtours.com\/blog\/naples-coffee-culture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">coffee culture in Naples<\/a> is unique even within Italy, so you&#8217;ll be spoiled for choice!

A favorite of Neapolitans and foodies alike, the coffee bar has not only your traditional espressos, but flavored coffees and hot chocolate, too. If you want the highest-quality coffee they offer, ask for the &#8220;Harem&#8221; coffee. And just be careful when you grab your cup; as per tradition for coffee in Naples, the espresso cup is <em>hot.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs_%E2%80%93_Best_Eats_Near_Naples_Train_Station\"><\/span>FAQs &#8211; Best Eats Near Naples&#8217; Train Station<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_leave_my_luggage_at_the_station_while_I_get_something_to_eat\"><\/span>Can I leave my luggage at the station while I get something to eat?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Yes. Napoli Centrale has a staffed luggage-storage service, Ki Point, in the station&#8217;s main train area near platform 5. The listed opening hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., but check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.napolicentrale.it\/deposito-bagagli\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">station&#8217;s official luggage-storage information<\/a> before travelling. Remember to allow time to collect your bags before boarding.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_time_do_I_need_between_trains_to_eat_near_Naples_Train_Station\"><\/span>How much time do I need between trains to eat near Naples&#8217; Train Station?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It depends on whether you want a quick coffee or pastry, a takeaway pizza, or a sit-down meal. Allow extra time for walking, ordering, queues, and getting back to the station. If you have a connecting train, check your departure platform on the station&#8217;s information boards and aim to be back well before departure. With a tight connection, it&#8217;s safer to choose food inside the station.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_can_I_check_train_platformsdeparture_times_at_the_station\"><\/span>Where can I check train platforms\/departure times at the station?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Check the electronic departure boards at Napoli Centrale for your train&#8217;s platform and any last-minute changes. You can also consult <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rfi.it\/en\/stations\/napoli-centrale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rete Ferroviaria Italiana&#8217;s official station page<\/a>, which links to live arrivals and departures.
