What reviewers say

Visitors praise Centralino's elegant and bright atmosphere, with some noting it as a quiet spot with a great view of the cathedral, and appreciating the variety of coffee extractions. However, many complain about the extremely high prices for drinks and food, which they feel are not justified by the quality, and some have experienced unwelcoming service and unclear pricing, particularly in the club.

About this place Centralino

Centralino at Via della Basilica 3 in the Quadrilatero Romano is Turin's most established gay bar — a reliable, well-run venue that has served as the anchor of the city's gay social scene for well over a decade. The Quadrilatero Romano is one of Turin's most characterful neighbourhoods: the ancient Roman grid at the heart of the city, now packed with independent restaurants, wine bars and craft cocktail spots. Centralino fits naturally into this environment. The bar is intimate — room for perhaps 60 people at full capacity — with an interior that feels lived-in and genuinely local rather than designed for Instagram. The aperitivo spread runs 18:00–21:00 with a free buffet that is one of Turin's better bar-aperitivo offerings. After 22:00 the focus shifts to cocktails and the crowd thickens with a mix of gay men, queer women and straight friends. Occasional DJ sets on Thursday and Saturday evenings. The bar is open daily and serves as a first-night orientation point for LGBTQ+ visitors to Turin. Staff are knowledgeable about the current scene and forthcoming events.

Last Saturday there was a blackout that lasted a long time and they wouldn't let anyone out. There were people crowding at the cash registers to pay but they weren't working and everyone didn't care. In fact, if you wanted to leave you had to pay in cash and you could leave.

Around 2:30 the power went out, and they didn't let the minors out through the main exit. They forced them to crowd towards the cash registers, blaming them for crowding in when they simply wanted to leave the venue. They forced them to queue for 20 minutes to get to the cash registers, many of them just to avoid paying, taking a ticket to leave and then leaving. Personally, as a girl, it was terrible to be left with the lights off, unable to go out, with 40 kids around them pushing to get out and pay.

Even Centralino has been added, reluctantly, to the list of nightclubs that practice gender discrimination. It's truly sad: it was perhaps one of the few in Turin that was safe.
