The story
Panificio San Gottardo, a no-frills neighborhood bakery in Milano’s Corso S. Gottardo, holds a solid 4.3-star rating and is tagged as an Italian bakery and pastry spot. Its unpretentious counter offers classics like Sfoglia con Marmellata, Focaccia con Cipolle, Focaccina Bianca, and Focaccia Rossa Tonda, with an emphasis on everyday affordability.
Creator Franchino Er Criminale gives a measured take in his video “Forni criminali SAN GOTTARDO Milano.” He calls it “decent for the price” but notes that the sweets are “all from a lab” and he found “a burnt piece.” His bottom line: it’s “passable” — you can buy stuff there, but nothing that compels you to bring it home. A reliable, if unremarkable, local stop.

AI summary of what 4 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the Focaccina bianca, calling it a pillowy, addictive masterpiece. The overall vibe is one of rustic, unpretentious perfection from a true neighborhood gem.
“Well cooked, it flaked quite well. There's a bit of oil, but it lacks salt. The dough I chewed a bit too much. It's okay, but nothing special.”

A decent bakery for the price, but nothing worth mentioning or bringing home. The sweets are all from a lab, and there was a burnt piece. Overall, it's passable, you can buy stuff there.
Dishes mentioned
Sfoglia con Marmellata
This puff pastry has those little sugar beads on top, like the ones you find on Motta products — even in high-end pastry now. The look isn't bad, but the jam inside is hard, a bit undercooked, it's fake jam, there's not enough of it. It's passable, but not great.
