Festina Lente In Seregno

If you want to find yourself in a living room from times gone by...come in and enjoy

A while ago we went for a birthday. The very beautiful environment. It feels like being at home in France. We ate lots of little bites. The colorful rolls were my favorite.

A real shame that such a nice place where you can eat well is run by a lady who is not very kind and not very inclined towards hospitality!! The place is not suitable for children so if you can avoid bringing them the owner will be grateful!

Very nice and interesting place. Mix culture and food. It's worth finding out.

Nice place, but terrible management and hospitality. 4 of us came, and 3/4 of the things ordered were "finished", some of which the waitresses didn't even know what they were. He also got the order wrong: 2 coffees and 2 bitters (chosen from those he had left), and 2 correct coffees arrived at the table. Furthermore, on the menu, a glass of water appears not to be paid for, only to then discover at the cash register that it must instead be paid for. It may be a printing error, but in any case it is incorrect. Really bad management and very unprepared girls.

Much appreciated! Finally a tea room that deserves this name... and the tea and herbal tea proposals linked to book titles were the icing on the cake! Really cozy and well looked after atmosphere, I was really satisfied with the snack. I will definitely return to try some other formula.

Stopped by yesterday morning for a refreshment stop after a walk in the cold. We were a group of nine people "a little bizarre" (with special needs)... as soon as we crossed the threshold we found ourselves immersed in a very welcoming and elegant environment. The food lived up to the context and the manager, to whom we renew our warm thanks, proved to be a true gentleman, attentive and generous.

I went to Festina Lente for the €20 brunch formula, which included a savory dish chosen from 4 options (we chose a croque monsieur and an avocado toast), a mini yogurt with granola and berries, a mini cocoa muffin, American coffee or hot tea and a fruit juice. The food didn't impress us. The toasts were made with industrial bread, the muffin was packaged (Tre Marie brand), the portion of yogurt was small. Furthermore, by ordering avocado toast, we didn't expect to receive avocado toast but also salmon (which hadn't been mentioned)... luckily I didn't order it, as I don't eat fish. The choice between just two hot drinks is a bit limited; I would have preferred to drink a cappuccino. Teapots and cups should be washed better, as they are stained with tea/coffee. The environment is welcoming and characteristic, a bit in English style. At the entrance there is a very nice corner with books for sale.

A bistro with truly attention to detail furnishings, with a recognizable style that recalls the Belle époque, from the decoration of the rooms to the crockery. The desserts are good for breakfast or a snack, I haven't tried the savory versions yet. They also offer cultural events related to literature and art. Definitely worth trying!

Very relaxing and delicious tea! Well done
