L'Antica Credenza In Matera

Excellent place! Generous salads! Nice aperitif! I recommend it.

Nice. Friendly service. Delicious food. And the menu is in Polish. 😀 for those who need it.

Location Located opposite the Church of San Francesco d'Assisi in Piazza San Francesco, the restaurant consists of an indoor section with the cash register, kitchen, and restrooms (one for both men and women, but clean) and an outdoor section. Despite its outdoor location, it was surrounded by a wood and glass wall, making it well-sheltered and equipped with patio heaters and heat lamps, making it pleasant to sit outside despite the low temperatures. Menu We ordered two sandwiches. You could choose either a focaccia bread base with a filling or a bruschettone consisting of a slice of typical local bread. We opted for the focaccia bread. The sandwiches were huge, generously filled, and most importantly, delicious. The ingredients didn't seem like typical fast food items, but rather, typical local products (a less "industrial" flavor, so to speak). Overall Impressions The waiter was very friendly. Despite the location, despite being in a tourist town, I was surprised by the overall price, including cover charge and drinks, which was much lower than in the area (€30 for two sandwiches, two Cokes, and two covers). Excellent value! Highly recommended for a quick lunch!

Lovely place to have a coffee and to eat. Very friendly people and boss !!

Delicious food, plentiful across all courses. Good prices for the quality.

Highly recommended. Friends and I tried several dishes on the menu, both pasta dishes and sandwiches. Everything is homemade, with local ingredients and dishes. The creamy fava bean and chicory soup is a must-try. The service was quick, and above all, the staff was very courteous and friendly.

We stopped for a quick lunch, ordering a crapiata, a fava bean and chicory salad, and two portions of bread meatballs. Everything was truly excellent, especially the meatballs.
