We've all been there, after midnight or just on a midweek night in a beach town like Positano where the only place happening is a somewhat touristy restaurant like Chez Black that happens to have a grotto bar that's the busiest place in town. Its upstairs lounge is literally carved out of the mountainside with retro disco ambiance and open terrace that captures a summer night better than most others. Midweek and throughout shoulder season, Chez Black is a local's rendezvous for late-night drinking and bar culture with occasional DJs, live music and chic collection of visitors that always makes for a fun night out in quiet Positano.
Tips
Don’t judge this promenade eatery by its street presence, the 1950s inspired disco lounge is a great pick for midweek and off-season.
Last Word
A fixture since 1949, the eatery sits along the main promenade with classic glass-enclosed fish case and staff asking unsuspecting passersby whether they’d like a “table for 2?”
