Default Restaurants in Petritoli

Here is information on the restaurants in Petritoli where I live.

Ristorante Hotel Roma:
A great place to stop for lunch. Excellent priced food at bargain prices. Bread, a pasta dish, wine, water, fruit and coffee all for 6 euros.


Osteria de le Cornacchie:
A set menu of traditional local dishes. Broad beans to die for. This Osteria is famous in the area and extremely popular. You do not have to eat the tripe! Well worth a visit. Vegitarians should inform Sergio the owner beforehand. Advanced booking required.


Ristorante Re Squarchiò:
What can I say? Prepare yourself for a feast! The food just keeps arriving(again it is a set menu) so go carefully on the starters. This really is an excellent restaurant. Andrea speaks some English and makes the best italian baked beans I have tasted. Open at lunchtime. Advanced booking required and again let Andrea know beforehand if you are vegetarian. Go carefully on the vino cotto and mistrà!


Ristorante Pizzeria Obelix:
Haven't been!! It has recently changed hands, but reports have been excellent by locals and expats. Open Lunchtime.

I am going to have to test the local agritourisms.

Default Hotel Roma Petritoli

As Helen says it is 2.30. I don't think that that is a fixed time, but simply that at that time nobody else arrives. I have never thought to ask! 2.30 already seems too late for lunch!

Helen and I went there with 14 others for easter sunday lunch......it was amazing. There must have been 400 people there and I think I recognised 3 0r 4 people from Petritoli. I went there last sunday with 4 others and we almost didn't get a table at 12.45. There were lots of groups from different towns (as far as il Conero) but they were all "ignoranti" or so it said on the tables. Can anyone shed light on that? It isn't always like that, but sunday it is best to book in advance (as evenings it is best not to bother except during the summer unless you are happy to sit in a very big restaurant alone).

Sunday evenings they are closed.

I have to admit that I take it a bit for granted and am surprised when I go elsewhere at both the quality and the price at lunch time. Silly really when in comparison to the Uk thay are generally excellent. Human Nature!!
