Panificio Il Vecchio Forno In Pieve vergonte

Lovely little bakery. I visited it multiple times while staying in an Airbnb nearby. The staff was lovely, and she served me kindly. Even though she didn’t speak English, she made a great effort to communicate and provide excellent service.

I'd already been here last year while hiking, and I was struck by the delicious breakfast and the simplicity, naturalness, and kindness with which the owners provided their service. This morning, driving down from Domodossola toward Lake Maggiore, I took the inland road specifically to stop again and enjoyed two cheese, ham, and tomato panzerotti, accompanied by a beer. I finished with an excellent espresso accompanied by a shortcrust pastry and jam. A memorable breakfast. A unique point of reference if you're passing through Ossola. If you sit outside, you can enjoy the view of the beautiful stone Church of San Vincenzo e Anastasio, a characteristic architectural feature of the area.
