Bar Fod In Cisternino

When we eat lunch 🍽️ out, I usually prefer to have coffee ☕ at a bar, convinced that the quality is superior. Today, I decided to enjoy a coffee ☕ comfortably seated 🪑in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele, the main square of the old town of Cisternino, at Bar Fod, a true local institution. ​The location is stunning, a prime spot for admiring the Clock Tower 🕛 and the typical whitewashed Apulian houses 🏠. We managed to find a table right away, despite the large influx of tourists, especially foreigners. ​The service was fast, competent, and courteous. A charming and professional lady also served us, which made the experience even more pleasant. ​I ordered a coffee, but, unfortunately, the taste didn't meet my expectations. I found it a bit too strong and with a "burnt" flavor, likely due to a blend with a high percentage of Robusta beans and a very dark roast that releases more oils, making the coffee more intense and full-bodied. It must be said, however, that coffee taste is a very personal matter. Although it wasn't to my liking, the café is definitely worth a visit for its location and impeccable service.

Truly delicious gelato in the charming little square in the center of Cisternino. A historic bar with a homemade gelato counter right on the street. Unique flavors and combinations, and good gelato. I had it with cream, which I expected to be better, but it still had a pleasant flavor similar to others I've tried. The staff aren't particularly friendly or courteous, given the hustle and bustle of people serving them. But a smile doesn't cost anything...

A small gelateria, conveniently located right next to the Clock Tower in the heart of Cisternino's old town. It doesn't always have to be a huge selection. We were very satisfied (with the taste and consistency of the ice creams) and visited this bar and gelateria several times during our week of vacation.

A place where you can grab a panini and a cold Peroni beer at an affordable price. The staff is very friendly and speaks fluent English. The products on the counter may not look very inviting at first glance, but once heated and served, they're very tasty. I recommend it!

Exceptional ice cream, try the almond!

The gelato is definitely very good, but I'm not going to compromise on the fact that you can't try the different flavors. I've never received such an answer from any gelato shop, from the most renowned to the small and obscure. If I'm unsure about a flavor, do I want to try it, or do I have to save money on a scoop?

Everything was excellent, very friendly, drinks and espresso freddo i. Excellent

Excellent. The simplicity is made with a lot of love and care, and you can feel it. The girl who served us is incredible. Highly recommended.

Very kind and welcoming. Lovely place.

We ordered a hot and cold aperitif for two and a cocktail. We found seats right away, and the atmosphere was pleasant. We waited and paid the right amount. It's a shame the juggler with his soap bubbles was bothering a few people at the table.
