Il Cantinone

Go, experience for yourself, incredible architecture, amazing atmosphere, and surprisingly good wine and reasonable prices... Beware, you might stay longer than you intended....

Our Italian is non existent which does not aid you in an area where not many Italians speak English. However we entered and found all tables reserved. We said we wanted vino only and would not stay long so it was okay to sit down at the end of a long table. Wine duly arrived. Nothing is measured out just poured by eye so my greedy self told me that my husband’s serving was bigger than mine. Strangely we were then asked if we wanted food after previously being told we couldn’t stay long. The server said the table was reserved for 9pm (it was currently 7.30pm). So we had some bruchetta with a very small plate of mixed cheese and meats along with what looked like cheese on toast. Quite pricey for what we had which left me thinking it would be very expensive to eat here. Maybe if I spoke Italian I may have had a different view. Nice location, great atmosphere. Superb old fireplace with roaring fire and warm on a winter’s night. Friendly staff.

We had hand crafted beers and a plate of cold cuts and cheese. The atmosphere is amazing and very exquisite food which for the quantity was a tad pricey. The beers however had definitely the right price. Definitely recommended

Local molto bello e ben curato. personale estremamente gentile. aperitivo semplice .. forse un po’ caro ma si paga molto anche la location

Very pretty, welcoming and friendly staff. Just make sure you are aware of the prices before ordering, if u ask for a bottle of wine they’ll bring the 50 euros one and they do not tell you. In order not to spoil the experience make sure to always ask for a menu before ordering. We also got a tagliere which was ok but definitely overpriced too. So nice but we would definitely not get back.
