This Cafe is on a very busy main road in San Benedetto Del Tronto…read more It is a very nice looking place inside and out. They have lovely snack foods and pasticceria items. It is decorated beautifully inside with black and white leather booths in the dining area. We stopped in and got a Cafe, (espresso) It perked us right up. They also served it with a nice glass of water, no ice. They do allow smoking, only outside. Which is good because,I do not think I could of taken the smoke. Though they are smoking like no tomorrow outside. People in Italy smoke a lot! I don't know why ? It is so expensive and well as unhealthy. Anyway back to the Cafe. It is very nice, fairly reasonable and a great location. Plus a lot of things inside here are written in English.

This was our first dinner stop in Italy and I'm very happy we came. It's in the Piazza and the food…read morewas great. We came with friends and they tried the olives. If course, there was no rush on our food or us and that made it better because we were exhausted. You should know some basic Italian as it's appropriate and appreciated by the locals. The fried calamari and shrimp were seasoned well and not overcooked. The gnocchi with langostinos tasted great and it was easy to peel and clean them before eating. Suck the heads, you won't be disappointed. The server was great and gave us recommendations on where to go hiking, walking, etc. I also recommend the spritzes they have. My lemon spritz was great but I'm not an aperol spritz fan anyway.

Beautiful outdoor patio area and its right in Piazza del Popolo. Chill vibe, classy, elegant atmosphere and good food overall. A little overpriced, but that's because it's in the heart of Ascoli Piceno.

A Butcher shop which in essence is a very good rotisserie where to find ready-made meals to make…read moreevery lunch a "Sunday Lunch". I was just there for the first time and I can guarantee the quality of: white lasagna with mushrooms, bacon and sauce; veal shank with herbs sauté; roasted chicken wings and roasted quail. I think it's a great place when to run for social dinner or when you do not have anything in the fridge. Good selection of local wines by the bottle but also wine in demijohn Una Macelleria che in sostanza è una buonissima rosticceria dove trovare piatti pronti per far diventare ogni pranzo "Domenicale". Io ci sono appena stato per la prima volta e posso garantire la qualità di Lasagne bianche con funghi, speck e besciamella; stinco di vitello con erbe ripassate in padella; ali di pollo arrosto quaglia arrosto. Secondo me è un posto ideale dove correre ai ripari per una cena con invitati improvvisa oppure quando non si ha nulla nel frigo. Buona la scelta dei vini locali in bottiglia, la macelleria Abbruzzetti offre anche vino in dama.
