Cocktail bar in a converted wool shop on Via Sant’Anselmo, near the Valentino park.
Lanificio San Salvatore is a cocktail bar at Via Sant'Anselmo 30 in Turin, Piedmont, Italy, housed in a converted wool shop, which is the origin of its name (lanificio means wool mill). The street lies in the San Salvario area, near the Valentino park, and sits a short walk from the bars of Via Madama Cristina and Via Baretti. The conversion of a former commercial space gives the room its character, and visitors usually describe the setting rather than any single drink as the draw. The programme is built around cocktails, with Italian classics and house serves typical of the city's craft bars; specific menu items and prices are not verified. Prices are mid-range ($$) and no cover charge is reported. The crowd is a mix of locals, students and professionals in their twenties to forties, plus visitors staying in the district. Dress is casual to smart-casual and no dress code is reported. The atmosphere is relaxed and conversational, with music kept moderate rather than dance-oriented. Opening hours have not been verified; evening opening is reported, and visitors should confirm days and closing times before going. Friday and Saturday nights are the busiest, and seating in a converted shop can be limited, so arriving early or calling ahead for a group is sensible. Weeknights are quieter and easier for a long evening drink. Bottle service is not a documented feature. The location makes it a good fit for an evening that begins with a walk through the Valentino park along the Po, continues with an aperitivo, and ends in one of the late venues around San Salvario. Public transport links include nearby tram and bus lines, and Porta Nuova station is within walking distance.
