La Bottega del Pincho's In Merano

10/11/2025: The dishes are very well prepared and delicious, and the service is good. They offer typical local dishes, but not only. The view is stunning.

09/11/2025: Our favorite inn for years - Unfortunately, recently with an unpleasant experience. We have been enthusiastic guests of this beautiful inn in South Tyrol for many years. The food is always excellent - fresh, regional, and prepared with great care. The ambiance and location are simply wonderful, and until now, the staff has always been exceptionally friendly and attentive. That's why we were so disappointed that, unfortunately, we have had repeated unpleasant experiences with a particular server over the last two years. While all the other staff members were always warm and welcoming, she treated us very condescendingly. This time, after a friendly server had shown us to a lovely dining room, we were asked to leave again by that same server – with the explanation that the room needed to be set for dinner (it was shortly after 2 p.m.). There were many other guests there who were staying much longer than we were. Instead, we had to sit in a small anteroom, which greatly detracted from what would otherwise have been a pleasant experience. Unfortunately, we got the impression that hikers or guests in casual clothing aren't quite as welcome here as more elegantly dressed visitors. That's a shame, because it's precisely the combination of coziness, warmth, and excellent cuisine that has always made this inn so special for us. We continue to value the establishment very much and hope that such situations won't occur again in the future – because we actually always enjoy coming back here precisely because of the otherwise so welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
