Carpino
Carpin o
Lounge

Carpino Lounge is a brick café with blue doors and windows, cozy outdoor tables and chairs, and a sandwich board sign welcoming guests on the pavement in front of the entrance.

A cozy, vintage-style lounge with floral wallpaper, leather armchairs, framed artwork and mirrors on the wall, a small carpino table set for tea, and soft, warm lighting.

A group of women sit and talk at a lively, warmly lit café or restaurant—perhaps Carpino—with colorful wallpaper and framed art in the background. Some smile and hold drinks, while one woman in green is blurred in the foreground.

A cozy bar with wooden shelves holding various liquor bottles, glassware, wine, and plants—including a vibrant carpino—warmly lit by hanging lamps and accented with colorful decorations. An ice bin and drink machine sit on the counter below.

A framed oval portrait of a woman with brown hair hangs on a patterned floral wallpapered wall above another framed painting depicting flowers. Warm light shines on the portrait, creating a cozy carpino-inspired atmosphere.

A group of people enjoy food and conversation at Carpino, a lively, warmly lit restaurant. Plates of food and drinks cover the tables, and everyone appears engaged and cheerful.
