Locos In Gatteo

Nice place with several friendly and knowledgeable staff. The coffee is good. The lunch menu was okay, but could be improved.

I've been there many times. In the summer, for a drink with friends, or in the winter, for a coffee. Highly recommended, with excellent staff and a lovely atmosphere.

Informal place, excellent service, exquisite breakfast and lunch

Hi, top stars for a place that's a cafe first and foremost, a restaurant first. The atmosphere is pleasant and cheerful, and you can sit down for lunch on one of the two verandas. Every day from 12:00, they offer a menu with a choice of two first courses and two second courses, a side dish, and water for just €13, with dishes worthy of a fine restaurant. They also stand out for the kindness and helpfulness of the staff (and women) and the homemade bread and cakes. Today, I chose the passatelli with pumpkin and mushrooms, and treated myself to a glass of Sangiovese decanted (from the bottle). Finished with a generous portion of torta della nonna. The bill for two was €34—what more could you ask for?

Nice place just a stone's throw from the sea, excellent for an aperitif

We were back in Cesenatico on October 12, 2025 (after 35 years!) and were pleasantly surprised by the bar. We weren't expecting a bar to be open near the beach at this time of year. The staff were extremely friendly, the drinks were excellent, and the bar's ambiance was also really good. What bothers me, however, is the appearance of the place (let's say the Cesenatico agglomeration). It's incredibly run-down; you wonder what criteria were used to build it there and who still vacations there today. I wouldn't walk from the bar to Cesenatico (about 6 kilometers); you could easily film an apocalyptic movie there. The bar can't do anything about it; I'd even drive the 6 kilometers just for that. Unfortunately, you can't magically make the buildings disappear.
