Apr 17, 2026"Stopped for a first beer in Bologna. Quick service, reasonable prices and some crisps to nibble on. It's in a busy spot so being asked to pay straight away was perfectly understandable"

Mar 10, 2026"Breakfast here was always a delight! We had fresh orange juice, coffee of course (one of the best we had on our trip) with a brioche or those mini pastries. My favorite was the brioche with ricotta filling- Amazing! We especially enjoyed standing at the bar where Mario was. He is The Best! So friendly and most attentive! 10 Stars ⭐"
