bar osteria da Picchio In Bolzano

If you're looking for an authentic place in Bolzano that will make you feel right at home, this place is a must. The atmosphere is friendly, casual, and slightly alternative—the kind of place where you can stop for a chat at the bar in the evening or for a relaxed lunch or dinner. One of its strengths is undoubtedly the cuisine: the menu changes frequently—even weekly—and always offers original, carefully crafted dishes, with excellent vegetarian and vegan options, generous and flavorful. The staff is young, kind, and truly welcoming, with special attention to everyone. Even on the busiest evenings, they maintain a warm, cheerful service, something rare these days. The option of dining later than average in the area is also greatly appreciated. The space is small but welcoming; if you're with a large group, it's best to reserve a table, especially for the restaurant area. The outdoor seating is lovely on nice days, away from the chaos but still just a stone's throw from the city center. The selection of beers and wines is also good, with fair prices and in line with the quality. In short: a simple yet refined, authentic place with a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere. Perfect for those who want to eat well, feel welcome, and discover a corner of Bolzano that has endured through time and in the soul. Highly recommended!

Without a doubt my favorite place in Bolzano, both for a chat at the bar in the evening and for lunch/dinner with a menu that changes weekly and always has vegan and vegetarian options!

The only osteria in Bolzano where you can enjoy a welcoming and lively atmosphere, eat good food, drink a lot, and feel at home with friends. Roberto and his colleagues know how to welcome guests with professionalism while also breaking the mold and making everything very personal. Great music, and sometimes various artistic initiatives. A place where you can truly feel at home.

If you're looking for authentic, innovative, and heartily cooked Italian food, this is the place to be. We had lunch there, received a warm welcome, and excellent advice. And the food was delicious. We'll be back next time we're in Bolzano.

They have great food, my order was taken late but otherwise everything was great!

Delicious food and amazing service. Would come back here for the atmosphere and food. Pork knuckle was amazing

A cozy little spot where Bolzano locals gather in the late afternoon to enjoy a few beers. After 7 p.m., the kitchen opens and serves a small but completely homemade selection of special Italian dishes. The chef, who’s also the owner, kindly took the time to walk us through the menu and helped us make the right choice. It’s the perfect place to taste local flavors in a friendly bar atmosphere, or simply sip a drink and hang out with friends. If we come back to Bolzano, we had definitely love to visit again.

Don't be fooled by the somewhat alternative charm of the space. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is delicious – they also offer vegan dishes.

It is a lucky find! We were planning to visit Otzi, but there was no parking lot available around the museum…so we parked near this restaurant/pub and decided to have lunch before queuing. The dishes were very good, and the menu is not similar to the other restaurants around this region, it is special! so we decided to have dinner here again in the same night before we left Bolzano😁

A friendly, laid-back, and alternative atmosphere. Excellent vegan options and a welcoming staff. A true gem, even outdoors, just outside the busiest areas of Bolzano! ☮️
