La Lampara In Castel gandolfo

Could renew the scutching a bit

Good coffee and above all kindness from the young owner :-) as well as the beautiful view of the lake.

Stopped for a quick drink. It was a Saturday so it was a bit busy, but I would say convenient and the view is really nice.

More like a bar. A café with plenty of sweets. There's an interior and a terrace. The terrace is so-so. The tables and chairs are quite dirty. The terrace overlooks Lago di Albano and the local beaches. We ordered piadina and tramwzzini. First, it turned out they had no ham, then no tuna, then mozzarella and tomato. Prices were reasonable.

It's been a while since I've been there. As always, I found a lovely café where you can enjoy a delicious breakfast, indoors or out, with a breathtaking view of the lake. The staff were excellent.

Somewhat mixed experiences, best divided into two groups: What I liked ✅ - The view, pleasant over the lake, especially from outside on the terrace. - The aperitif, meaning that if you order a drink, they bring you appetizers, which are definitely a lot for one person. - The prices, I thought they would cost me dearly, but if you choose the right things, you don't have to spend much (in fact, I avoided the spritz, which at 7 euros wouldn't even be brought to me on a gondola). What I didn't like ❌ - The service, a 20-minute wait for two bar items (beer and a sandwich) in a not-so-crowded room seems really excessive; plus, they didn't clean our table once we were seated, so we had to do it ourselves. - The prices aren't very clear, meaning it's unclear whether table service has an extra charge. I actually paid 5 euros for a beer instead of 3.50, but they included appetizers (which I didn't order), so I'd say it's good value. But if I ask for something and want more, let me know and I'll give you an answer. - Paying at the table once served may have been a problem, but I find it a tasteless solution. I don't think I'd go back, perhaps for the beautiful view or to grab a quick bite, but it must be said that there are better places nearby. If I ever visit again, I hope they fix the issues I mentioned, and I'll happily update the review.

The establishment is spotless, and Edoardo, the lifeguard, is always attentive to every guest's needs. The kiosk stocks excellent porchetta every day.

Very helpful and friendly staff, the girl who welcomes you is very friendly, nice and with wonderful eyes... The prices of the deckchairs including umbrella are fair, very quiet environment to relax...

It's a historic bar on the lakefront, with a very nice veranda overlooking the lake, the service is good, all the bar products are good and the ice cream shop is not bad either, the prices are normal and the place is old, in my opinion a renovated one would be good. Google asks me if La Lampara has changed... no, everything as always 😂

Most of the desserts are not available so basically half the menu is missing. The prices of anything other than the classic coffee or drink range from €5 and up at the table, which if you find the right one you can enjoy the view of the lake.
