Bar Frosini In Chiusdino

Not only good products but also a simple and genuine kindness of times gone by. On a cold January morning along the road that leads to the Abbey of San Galgano we stopped for a short break in this small bar. Very simple and spartan but welcoming place, wood stove lit, frank and kind manager. We also note that it is not simply a bar but also offers cold cuts and local wine. Returning from the visit, eager for a bit of warmth, we decide to stop and eat something, sitting in the heat near the stove. As I leave, however, I forget the wool hat, a gift from my wife, of which I am particularly fond. Unfortunately I realized it much later, too late to go back, also because the long journey back home awaited us. The next day, while tidying up, I come across the bar receipt and so I think of giving it a try. Not very convinced I call and ask if the hat has been found and if it is possible, perhaps, to have it sent to me. my expenses. The owner unexpectedly replied yes, simply saying, "don't worry, I'll package it well for you... some courier will pass through here in the next few days". Honestly, I didn't really believe it but, instead, after a few days the postman rang the intercom and asked me to go down and get a package... I thought it was one of the usual parcels from my children who now buy everything online... but instead I read on the envelope "Bar Frosini" and then I understand and, very happy, I immediately ask how much there is to pay: nothing already all paid! What can I say... THANK YOU VERY KIND... If you find yourself in those parts, stop in this bar... you will find a simple but welcoming place, a good platter of local products, good wine, in winter a very warm stove and a simple and frank but extremely kind manager.

Saving stop before the Abbey of San Galgano. A spectacular platter of local cured meats and cheeses. I recommend the tart.. exceptional!!

A place where time has stopped. A tavern where you can calmly stop to enjoy a good freshly made sandwich.

We wanted an authentic sandwich with Finocchiona and pecorino, this place granted our wish .. simple but authentic! super recommended for those who want a genuine taste of Tuscany, near the Abbey of San Galgano!!! absolutely a must try!!!

For me it was a place that has seen me grow since I was a child. The fixed stop for mushroom growers and hunters, as well as tourists who go to San Galgano. I've seen a lot of management and it's always worse. The old owner owned the cream of Sienese cured meats and wood-fired bread for over 20 years ago. It was a pleasure to hear the crust crunch under your teeth. The hams were spectacular and you always left with three ounces to take home. Fantastic buristi and soprassate. And he also sold the mushrooms he made. Everything is now a memory. The bread is so loose that the pieces fall out on all sides, the ham.....I wonder if it was, oh well, I only tasted the pepper. Crumb to tasteless, the salami average but with that bread..... Not bad cheeses Excellent service, three/four quick, attentive people serving the tables and the counter. Even if there are many people they quickly serve everyone. Honest prices. They don't pull their necks. Very large sandwiches €4, honest The environment is pleasant and the view is beautiful. It's not what it used to be but it's nice to enjoy a nice platter after hard work in the woods. So I'm going back, but I'll bring the bread with me

A resting place on the road that leads from Colle Val D'Elsa south to Chiusdino, Abbey of San Galgano, Massa Marittima, Follonica. Curves, countryside, villages, grazing cows, shaded paths, little traffic but watch out for deer, and above all motorcyclists who think they are in Imola. Bold raw ham, Tuscan bread, a couple of umbrellas on the door, two tables and a few chairs but with that heat no one to animate them, it must have been 40 degrees that afternoon. Not far away there is a tower above the greenery which gives the idea of ​​an important building. Good coffee. And a red postbox that works (once a day) but has been placed contemptuously above the original travertine sign, which is much more elegant. The owner, originally from Bari, is kind. You would say there is nothing Tuscan about that inn except the ham, the 'Bari' man is also an Inter fan, "we win again this year" is the greeting. --- Modest prices. Until next time.

Drank coffee. Ordered sandwiches, but the manager thought it necessary to serve other people first. So I paid for coffee and no sandwiches.
