Bar Centrale In Riomaggiore

Unique experience! Italian cuisine by Spanish singers [serenade to the waitress as a bonus]. Abrupt and cold service. Only go there if you're at risk of starvation.

The food was very good and came quickly.

The food was delicious and reasonably priced, considering we're in Cinque Terre. The service was very friendly. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience.

It is a place where you can eat well, in the center of Riomaggore

During our visit to the Cinque Terre during Ferragosto, we had lunch at Bar Centrale. The first course was exceptional, truly balanced and well-rounded. The service was a bit slow, and the setting, being outside on the public street, was close to the huge flow of passing tourists. All in all, I would return for that fantastic first course, truly well-cooked.

We were on the terrace. It was incredibly hot, and they didn't even have fans. The prices were outrageous: 9 euros for a glass of wine. The main course took over 15 minutes, and it wasn't even that they were cooking it; it was delicious pasta. The tomato and mozzarella salad we had for starters was awful: the tomato was tasteless and the mozzarella was dry. The service was okay.

A little more attention to detail: for example, if the waitress needs to set the table, they don't hand the menus to the customer who has to stand and wait. Or, after waiting ten minutes, we're told the dessert is out. I ask for a red wine recommendation and they bring me a white, haha! Otherwise, the food is decent.

The food was very good. We ordered pasta and it was delicious. The atmosphere and service were also excellent, especially from Germán and the owner, who were very friendly and made sure everything was perfect. Thank you very much! :)

Came for breakfast and sat on the outside patio. Thankfully we sat toward the back because the patio is very congested and difficult to get in/out. Service was a bit spotty but ok. It's challenging to find breakfast spots that serve protein like eggs/bacon as most r pastries and sweets. Really appreciated that Bar Centrale, which is on the main strip of Riomaggiore, included omelets on their menu. Ordered the ham omelet, fruit cup, side of avocado, lemon crepe, latte & oj. The OJ was delicious & fresh squeezed. Was hoping for some healthy fats with the side of avocado, but it didn't really work out as it seemed to be turning. The fresh fruit was tasty and appreciated the generous size. Other items were just fine. Was there anything wrong with Bar Centrale? Not really. It just wasn't comfortable and not sure I'd go back. However, there aren't a ton of options in town so if you're also craving something more substantial for breakfast, give it a try.

We’re a couple doing our Italy trip for the first time. Initially avoided due to low rating. However we were recommended by our boat tour guide and gave it a chance. Arrived at 7pm on a Tuesday night, so it was less crowded. 👌 Fried Anchovies was the best fried seafood we’ve had on this Italy trip 💪 The rabbit was also interesting and great to try ✅ Pasta is just generally great all over Italy. The lemoncello suggested by the owner was also delicious.
