Ristorante del Pellegrino In Castelnuovo berardenga

"La Casa del Pellegrino" is a restaurant in Piazza Giovanni Paolo II in Crema, run by a social cooperative and located within the monumental complex of the Basilica of Santa Maria della Croce. The food is delicious, well-cooked, and authentic. Excellent service with helpful and efficient staff. Prices are fair. 1 double appetizer, 1 ravioli (pumpkin, amaretti, cocoa), 1 pasta dish with plenty of mushrooms, water, coffee for 2 = €43.

A team of charming waiters! Fátima treated us with unique kindness! Highly recommended

Impeccable service, very good food (I recommend the tortelli cremaschi), and a charming setting with the Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Croce in the background. I sincerely thank Fatima for being with us during lunch and clarifying all our questions. Highly recommended.

I love this kind of place, which gives even super-powered guys and girls the opportunity to work. I had a focaccia with porchetta that was top-notch, both in terms of planning and filling. The caramelized onions were truly excellent. Then, tempted by the woman who ordered them, I asked for a taste of the stewed carrots, which were excellent. The location is truly first-rate, and parking is convenient. If you're passing through Crema and want to stop in for a special breakfast or lunch, I highly recommend it.

Excellent value for money, and the service makes the difference. The welcome was magnificent, polite and cheerful, never intrusive. Fatima and the other staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. It's a pleasure to eat in a place where kindness is spontaneous, a quality that, unfortunately, is increasingly rare. Highly recommended.

Excellent food. Friendly and welcoming staff. Clean environment.

Social restaurant: helps young people with difficulties enter the workforce. For lunch, they offer a full work menu, very generous. When they make it (Tuesday and/or Thursday), they serve a thick, well-leavened, and easily digestible pizza: 3 or 4 flavors available, so you have to be satisfied and not be too demanding. The atmosphere is friendly and pleasant. They are attentive to lactose intolerances. They also organize special events on certain evenings. I had lunch with the family on Saturday: the menu featured a charcuterie board: excellent!!!! They also prepared lactose-free Easter dove cakes that evening.

They prepared a delicious tasting assortment of the area for us, I recommend it 100%.

It's a special place. Excellent food and pleasant atmosphere. The thick pizza is delicious and digestible. The ice cream is exquisite. The best part, however, is the staff: smiling, helpful, joyful boys and girls. My business lunch when I return to the area will always be here!

5 stars would not be enough to describe this place. A place dedicated to inclusiveness where the phrase NEVER ALONE AGAIN fits perfectly into the location. An environment that is simple, well-kept and well-kept. Young and very friendly staff. I recommend the guided tour of the Basilica (which is a hidden and little-known gem, not only for its history) and then stop for lunch at the Casa del Pellegrino. A very positive experience.
