Caffè Meletti is a historic cafe located in Piazza del Popolo in Ascoli Piceno, located to the left of the Palazzo dei Capitani del Popolo. It is part of the Association of Historical Places in Italy. The opening of the restaurant dates back to May 18, 1907 and since then it is known for its refined refinement. In the city it has always been considered the meeting place of the most illustrious characters, as well as a meeting point for culture and social life. The building still retains the charm of the Liberty style.
The ancient pink color of the external facade distinguishes it and differentiates it from all the historic buildings in the square, but at the same time it manages to harmonize with them, thanks to its architectural lines.
The building was designed by the engineer Marco Massimi and raised in the years between 1881 and 1884 to house the Palazzo delle Poste and Telegrafi. The factory insists on the same area where Picchetto della Dogana insisted in previous centuries. The building ceased its postal function in the first few years of the new century, when it was transferred to a wing of the nearby Palazzo San Filippo.
