"A small, local café located outside Bologna’s main train station, perfect for a short break while traveling if you still want to feel a bit of the authentic Italian bar vibe. The space is compact, with around six high bar tables and stools, but the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxed — just right for a pause between trains. Despite its size, the café offers a surprisingly good selection: excellent coffee, freshly prepared sandwiches, pasta (tortellini), croissants, pastries, salads, and a few local specialties. You’ll also find juices, alcoholic drinks, and aperitivo options. Sandwiches are made fresh on the spot, everything is clean and well kept, and there is a proper, tidy restroom available. The staff is very friendly and efficient, prices are reasonable considering the location, and overall it’s a great spot for a quick break without the typical impersonal train-station feeling."

"Just minutes from train station. Great pastries and coffee. This is our third visit and decided to enjoy prosecco while we wait for train. Then, to our surprise the staff gifted us a cup of their special tortellini, chips and olives! Excellent! Their balsamic vinegar gifts look amazing too!"

"A bit of a tourist bar near the main rail station, but a nice place for a rest just the same. I was in the mood for a Negroni, which was average here, but came with your typical platter of snacks plus the real treat: a small coffee cup of local tortellini. Delicious. This is what sets them apart from the other cafes/bars in Bologna."
