Pasticceria Capitanio In Rovetta

05/10/2025: A delightful place, discovered by chance, in the hills outside Bergamo. Excellent and plentiful dinner, with a set menu. The risotto and meat main course were particularly appreciated.

01/09/2025: A wonderful evening at the cascina—highly recommended! We visited last night with friends and our kids, and had a truly lovely experience. The location is stunning, though a bit tricky to reach at night due to narrow mountainous roads—so plan ahead. Once you're there, the setting is peaceful and welcoming. The cascina itself is cozy, with a spacious indoor room for colder months and a wide terrace that feels homely and can host several tables. It’s ideal for families and also perfect for a romantic date night. We chose the apericena option (no second dish like tagliata) and paid around €26 per person—great value for money. The fixed adult menu was delicious, and kids could choose between pasta with cheese and butter or pomodoro, followed by chicken Milanese. Appetizers were fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The rice dish was a standout. One of the later courses was modified with bacon crumble and sage—tasty, though a bit rich compared to the earlier plates. Important note for allergy-sensitive guests: dairy plays a big role in many dishes, so be cautious. That said, the staff were incredibly attentive—especially with our child who has severe allergies. The waitresses were kind, knowledgeable, and made sure everything was safe. Service was excellent overall. The two ladies who looked after us were friendly and took time to explain each dish and the wine pairings. The cascina produces its own red and white wines from grapes grown on-site. We tried the white—it was light, fruity, and paired perfectly with the meal. We were offered seconds of everything and left feeling full and happy. Dessert was a tagliere of assorted sweet treats, finished with a glass of Moscato di Scanzo—a perfect ending. Tip: Parking is limited, so arrive early to avoid hassle.
