Small, efficient chain-grocery store that nearly has it all!…read more We were starting to grow tired of eating out in restaurants every day on vacation. So we decided to stop at this grocery store to get some salami, cheese, and bread to make some sandwiches back at our villa in Garda. It was very easy to pull off of the road to get to this supermarket, and there was also plenty of parking spots in front. (Luckily all cars in Italy are super small, so no problems fitting in the extra small parking spaces too.) But once inside - - we found a fantastic deli with a wonderful assortment of meats and cheeses. While the counter service attendant did not speak English, my limited Italian helped us and she allowed us to sample some flavors before making our final selection. We also loaded up on some chocolates here for gifts back home - - and some wine for later. Wow - 3EUR Montepulciano!!! And it was even good too!! All in all... we got a bunch of food for sandwiches, snacks, gifts, and food to take back home - - our total was only 20EUR. That was a bargain!!

The ultimate experience in Verona. A happily run family restaurant oozing with rustic contemporary…read moredesign well lit and a hospitable layout. The presentation of the food (cheese and meat deli) is second to none. It doesn't feel like a deli as much as a showcase of the finest and freshest in the region. Needless to say the food is AMAZING but what I like best is the husband, wife, daughter and staff that live here night after night providing epic experiences for all of their guests. This should have a Michelin Star or 3.

Lots of food and drink for your road trip or tour bus. Not so good for restrooms. The cleaning…read morelady entered the men's room at the same time I did, so that rendered the 10 or so urinals unusable when time was tight. The commode was in a tiny, disgusting closet--absolutely gross. Also, whoever designed these Autogrills is obviously a man with no understanding of a woman's restroom needs. The women's room is always much too small, with a line winding around into the hallway whenever we make a stop. This one was no exception. On the other hand, this spot has a good variety of fresh food, lots of drinks, chocolates, cookies, electronic accessories, and other merchandise. No Big Gulps, but otherwise this place and all of the other Autogrills beat 7-11 hands down in terms of sheer variety. The deli/restaurant actually makes really good quality food. Now, just fix that restroom thing so it's more efficient, and I'll really be a fan of these road stops.

Due to the Christmas season and everyone being off from school and work, it was extremely busy. We were able to snag a table though so that was a plus as everyone was out and about in Verona. The pizza, tiramisu, panna cotta, soup, gnocchi, coffee were all top notch. I don't recommend the beef tartare though, it was stateless and I couldn't finish it, although I generally love raw meat. Very lovely fun place to try out.

The market is good though, not huge but it does have a bit of everything and a large selection of chocolate flavours. The deli counter here is worth buying from and they make great sandwiches which are good if heading out walking for the day. The sons of the owner run the place as well and they both speak really good English.

This might have been a four-star grocery store. I mean, "yay! I'm a fan" and everything but there…read moreis nothing really special going on here. Don't get me wrong... there is absolutely nothing wrong with this mini-supermarket... but nothing is going to blow you away. Despar is a chain of supermarkets ... actually Despar is owned by the same people who own Eurospoar (medium-sized markets) and Interspar (genuine SUPER markets), if I have that right. If you are in need of a supermarket because you need bottled water and toothpaste and some snacks (I think they have a small deli in back, too), this is a good stop... It's hard to tell from the front and if you aren't familiar with the name/signage, you might walk right by without knowing that this is place to stop if you don't want to spend €75 on minibar candy in your hotel. I'm pretty sure this is a walking street only so don't expect to pull your car up and load with groceries.

Outstanding sandwich/panini shop in Verona near the Castelvecchio…read more I order their "nympho" sandwich, which featured mortadella on focaccia with a mozzarella cream and pistachio.
