Cortesia e professionalità. Personale gentilissimo e sempre attento ad ogni esigenza del cliente. Cibo gustoso e materia prima di qualità. Se vuoi fare un aperitivo da 10 e lode, questo è un locale che devi assolutamente visitare. Qui ti senti accolto come in famiglia. Bravo Canio e company

Fantastica scoperta, abbiamo avuto modo di assaporare un super aperitivo, ricco di tanti prodotti freschi di qualità, molto abbondante praticamente una cena. Consiglio vivamente di farci una capatina. Complimenti.

Bar aperto ormai da molto tempo, concorrente al bar lo Zoodiaco. Un tempo era un piccolo tabacchino, poi fu ristrutturato dalla nuova gestione e mutato in bar e tabacchino. Il servizio è ottimo, il locale è bello con il piazzale interno.
