Gran Caffè Sciarra In San benedetto del tronto

15/08/2025: I'm from Genoa but I often go to Ascoli Piceno. Bar Sestili offers high-quality cocktails and exquisite cuisine. Lately, I've preferred it to the larger, more well-known establishments in and around Piazza del Popolo. But they're not real competitors; Bar Sestili has carved out its own character. With a relatively small interior and a couple of nice tables just outside, it also boasts additional tables in the square.

01/08/2025: A very nice bar with a charming, nostalgic decor that feels authentic. The location is slightly off the main piazza, rather quiet, with a pleasant funk/soul playlist. You can sit inside the bar, directly in front, or against the wall of the beautifully lit church. Privacy is possible. The food is of very high quality; you have to be able to make the beef tartare! The very attentive, friendly, and welcoming waiters, who also speak excellent English, deserve special mention. I really enjoyed both the drinks and the food.
