We stayed in Sorrento on holiday in April/May 2012. We needed to use our laptop and as our hotel did not have wifi or Internet access they recommended the Banana Split bar nearby. We visited the bar several times for coffee and tea (being British!) and found the owners very friendly and helpful. The open wifi connection was stable and... More

Banana Split became our local pub, not just for beer but also for a morning Cappuccino. It was a great sports bar and showed all EPL games. The owners are really friendly and the place is certainly worth a visit. The driving and sights on the Corsa Italia outside were something to behold!! More

The Banana Split is a perfect place to spend your evenings while lazing in Sorrento. Perfect mixture of locals and tourists. The owners Luigi and his wife are helpful and friendly offering all the local Italian travel advice for which one could ask. Please make the Banana Split a stop on your visit to Sorrento! More
