Panificio Pasticceria Baldin In Venezia

16/08/2023: After walking for quite some time in the hot sun, this was exactly what we needed: Relaxing atmosphere, extremely friendly staff, the food was just amazing (we had bruscetta, pasta and pizza, vegan was no problem) and the prices are also very good. Absolutely perfect experience!!!

22/07/2023: Ate here 3 out of 5 nights and found the location (away from the manic crowds around Rialto), welcome, and food to be excellent. Seating is outside on the wide Via Garibaldi with views to the waterfront, and we enjoyed watching the 'Venezia Catamaran Cruise' yacht depart every couple of hours on its various cruises around the lagoon. Our usual choices were Aperol Spritz, followed somewhat later (at our request) by lovely freshly prepared bruschetta (one serving of this was ample for 2 as a starter), delicious pizzas (Capricciosa is the best!), finishing with panna cotta/tiramisu. The Italian Sauvignon Blanc is also very tasty. Sometimes we would spend nearly 3 hours here from start to finish relaxing and enjoying our food after hot and busy days exploring Venice. Both Chinese waitresses were excellent, but we must give a special mention to Angela! Pricewise, the above would cost us around 90 euros, which we felt was excellent value considering we were in Venice.
