Bar Caffè Fontana In Santo stefano di cadore

31/08/2025: I work locally during the summer months and this is a local place for me to go to, and sometimes I go for a drink after work. The location is fantastic, but they have very rigid rules that take away from the experience. For instance the fixed times about the lunch slots (either 12:30 - in which case they would rush you) or 2 pm (much better if you want to relax). But today I happened to go around 12:15 after work and wondered whether I could have something for lunch. It seemed to be half empty outside, but I was told that it was booked up. It doesn't make much sense and it's not very welcoming - especially if you are visiting for the first time. Another senseless rule is the bar closed between 12 and 4 pm. The overall impression is that you are only welcome at their condition. I also have to add that I have only had lunch once this summer, and the quality has gone down a bit, while prices have gone up. The quality/price ratio has definitely worsened. I don't think I will be eating there soon again, while in the past I used to go at least two or three times over the summer. Having said all that, the food is still ok, and the location, probably, the main attraction of the place. Hope this helps some visitors from abroad.

18/08/2025: This is our second time here, but I don't think we'll be back. The service needs improvement; they're very rushed and take away the bread and breadsticks while we're still eating. We had more than half an hour before the second sitting. It's a shame, and I wouldn't recommend it.
