Al Vecchio Teatro con Camere In Ortona

03/03/2026: I was in the area and, having seen the Real Time program "Il Forno delle Meraviglie," I was curious to visit this bakery. The shop is located underground, and at first I thought I had the wrong address. The shop is small, as is the counter. In addition to a good variety of naturally leavened breads made with ancient grains, they also sell many traditional products. The white pizza is excellent: crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Really well-leavened and cooked. I was disappointed with the dessert section, as when I went, they only had a buccellato and a buckwheat cake filled with sour cherry jam. I ordered half of the latter, but I didn't like it at home. The buckwheat flavor was too strong and intense, and the sour cherry jam was too sweet and cloying. The girl at the counter was very kind and smiling.

02/02/2026: Delicious pizzas, even better desserts. All the products on the extensive counter are perfectly paired and reflect our local culture. The owner explained every single item we ordered. There's so much to choose from, and once you're inside, you'll want to take everything home. It's truly a wonder oven! Highly recommended!
