I migliori ristoranti in Varese

12/02/2026: Great food. Super friendly. As always, it was a pleasure to be here. Highly recommended. Grazie! We'll gladly come again.

11/01/2026: On New Year's Eve 2025, six of us dined at Ristorante Il Pescatore. The menu was very limited, and the prices were extremely high that evening—apparently due to a musician performing. We had to wait around three hours for our food, which was completely unacceptable. The quality and portion sizes of the dishes were disproportionate to the prices: €20 for spaghetti vongole with a mere five clams, or €30 for a beef fillet with very few fries, was outrageous. Overall, the evening was a huge disappointment. For these prices, we expect significantly better quality, service, and organization. We will not be returning to Ristorante Il Pescatore for the foreseeable future—the whole experience felt like a complete rip-off.

17/03/2026: Disappointing Women's Day. €25 for a meager, poor-quality buffet, some items inedible because they were rancid. I understand the price for the entertainment, but you shouldn't go home and have a stomachache. Maybe a pizza menu would have been better.

14/03/2026: A great place to play beach volleyball with friends 🔝 Three great courts 💯

09/08/2025: Super friendly staff. Very good ice cream.

09/11/2025: It's totally our kind of place! A lively atmosphere, lots of locals, delicious cappuccino, and tasty panini and brioche. Cool owner. She's on the ball. Always a highlight for us.

03/10/2025: A typical Italian café, ideal for a quick and inexpensive espresso and croissant.

10/02/2026: Passing through for work we stopped for lunch and it was a nice discovery four different dishes from fish to meat to braised with polenta and also desserts all well presented and above all good kind and present staff very nice owner well done see you next time highly recommended👍

20/01/2026: Lunch during your lunch break? Yes, please. The food is delicious, the girls are friendly, and the price is more than fair. You leave feeling full and satisfied.

23/11/2025: Competent in his work, excellent pastry shop

01/08/2025: Unparalleled as always… Both for gluten-free and non-gluten-free products… The gluten-free brioches are amazing… For us gluten-free people 😂 The staff is always friendly and smiling, which is rare these days 🌹 Thanks as always 🎈

11/01/2026: Delicious pizzas and super fast delivery, I recommend it!!

30/12/2025: Very good pizza. Super fast service.

15/01/2026: The place was very good, but it's a shame the person at my table was a bit strange and cumbersome, as he talked to us and didn't bother us at all. Anyway, the meal was delicious. I recommend everyone to go. The person in question is the one in the photo. If you see him around, don't talk to him. He's weird.

10/01/2026: Honest service with quality products. Attentive and very friendly staff. Excellent place for breakfast and aperitifs. Coffee is still €1.10, a rare price in the city. I absolutely recommend it.

26/12/2025: Great bar for breakfast or an aperitif before parking the car for a flight.

12/10/2025: Excellent trattoria, excellent service and food, friendly staff. Highly recommended!

11/03/2026: Good panoramic location on the lakefront. We went there on a Sunday for lunch. The food was good, but the spaghetti and paccheri had a bit too much cooking water. Unfortunately, the service was quite slow (there were several people in the restaurant, but it wasn't crowded, and there were people who arrived after us and had much shorter waits). We waited at least 45 minutes just to order, despite having mentioned this three times. In the end, it took over two and a half hours for a simple meal (appetizer, first course, coffee). This is truly excessive, and this can only negatively impact the overall rating. The prices were reasonable for what was offered. On a positive note: we weren't charged for coffee. A suggestion: the microfiltered water bottles, since they are constantly reused, should be cleaned more thoroughly.

04/03/2026: We ate well in company, the evening was themed with live music.

21/02/2026: Balanced and flavourful dishes.

20/01/2026: Overall, I'd say the pizza was good. The place was a bit sparse, but it was perfect for grabbing a slice of pizza and running away.

06/03/2026: Friendly service, wonderful calzone and gondola.

07/02/2026: Really delicious waffles, small space and fast service.

18/12/2025: A huge selection of brioches, some truly unique. Lots of interesting vegan options! We tried the two vegan ones: nettle-juniper-blueberry and the other black cherry-chocolate, both excellent.

11/12/2025: Excellent pastry shop in the heart of Busto Arsizio, right near the Basilica of Santa Maria. Attentive service and exquisite products.
