Looking for a way to cool down, we stumbled upon Vögelino quite by chance – and ended up being pleasantly surprised.
The absolute highlight for us was the Frozen Aperol. Especially on a hot summer day, it's a brilliant alternative to the classic Aperol Spritz: pleasantly refreshing, fruity, and not too sweet. Anyone visiting Bolzano should definitely try it.
We were also impressed by the water-cooled fan in the outdoor area. It might sound like a small detail, but it makes a huge difference in the summer heat and ensures that you can sit outside comfortably.
Special praise also goes to the young man in the hat who served us. Friendly, attentive, and with a charming South Tyrolean accent – exactly the kind of service you hope for. We always felt welcome, without it seeming forced.
The atmosphere is relaxed and informal, perfect for a break during a stroll through the city or a leisurely aperitif in the evening. The whole package – drinks, service, and ambiance – is just right.
We'll definitely come back – if only for the frozen Aperol.

Bolzano is never complete without a visit to the fruit market and a stop at Vögelino's. Their ice cream is among the best. The food is unremarkable.

Great food and fast service. Also awesome that that have the adjacent gelato shop: grab sandwiches and a meat/cheese plate first, then finish with gelato. Or, you know, the other way around.

Located right on the market square, Vögelino is a lovely place to linger. We've had the best focaccia we've had in ages.
The service was also incredibly friendly and efficient. The staff is very welcoming, and you can tell they enjoy their work.
The cocktails, like the Aperol and Limoncello, are absolutely fantastic. The accompanying snacks (olives and pastries) are perfect for watching the world go by.
A great place to start the evening.

We had the best coffee and by far the best focaccia we've had on our holiday here.
The service was also excellent and the staff very friendly.

A lovely bar right on Waltherplatz with plenty of outdoor seating and a great view of the action. It's a truly wonderful place to sit, especially when the weather is nice.
The service was very friendly and attentive. They even served small snacks like olives with our drinks, which is always a nice touch. We also received a complimentary sandwich.
We particularly enjoyed the Forst Kellerbier (cellar beer). The wine spritzers were also well-made and perfect for a relaxing evening. The toast with cocktail sauce is also highly recommended. For around €5, you get a really tasty snack with excellent value for money.
Overall, a definite recommendation if you're looking for a nice outdoor spot for two or with friends and want to enjoy the atmosphere of Waltherplatz.
