Breakfast, eat and drink

May 19, 2025

Hello dear guest,
I would like to give you a few suggestions if you're looking for a place to eat or drink, try a piadina, or simply enjoy breakfast near the apartment.

BREAKFAST

For breakfast, I recommend a couple of places:

GUSTOFINO: great for breakfast and aperitifs, very close to the apartment. 300 meters on foot
PARTENOPE CAFÉ: excellent pastries, including Neapolitan and Sicilian varieties. In the city center

PIZZA

Here are a few pizzerias I like:

QBIO: probably the closest, good quality but not cheap, near the center and train station. 1 km
PIZZERIA DEL CORSO: nearby, good and affordable. 1 km
CANARIO: excellent pizza, but also serves meat and fish. 3 km
MARì: expensive but a location super cultural and beautiful in the principal square of Forlì, pizza super gourmet. 1 km

PIADINA ROMAGNOLA

The piadina is a typical product of this region. It's not bread, and it's not pita.
I suggest trying a piadina with squacquerone cheese, prosciutto crudo, and arugula, or a crescione with tomato and mozzarella.

NINO PLUS: my favorite piadina, close to home, the location isn’t great (on the Via Emilia). 1.4 km
PIADA DEL PARCO: stunning location, inside the Forlì urban park, beautiful sunsets, rabbits, and lots of greenery. Slightly long waits. 1.8 km

TRADITIONAL ROMAGNA CUISINE

If you want to eat like a local, try what we call "minestre" (pasta) : cappelletti (not tortellini please), tagliatelle, strozzapreti.
Also typical: rabbit, grilled lamb (castrato), and cured meats.
For dessert: mascarpone cream and zuppa inglese.

AMOROSINA: in the city center, a youthful spot, a bit crowded, but the food is top-notch. 1.9 km
OSTERIA SALUME': cozy, quiet, few dishes but masterfully prepared, excellent wines. In the center. 2 km
AMOROSA: less youthful but possibly even better food. 4 km
OSTERIA DEL MERCATO: typical place, vibrant area, Romagna cuisine and excellent meat. 2 km
CANARIO: also listed under pizza, but very good meat and fish too. 3 km
CA DE BE': in Bertinoro. On the hills, sea view, stunning medieval village. 12 km
OSTERIA LA CAMPANARA: if you're up for a drive through the Romagna hills, exceptional place for food, wine, ambiance, and scenery. 35 minutes by car

OSTERIA BARTOLINI in CESENATICO:Always fresh fish, expertly cooked, located on the charming canal harbor of Cesenatico. Romantic and captivating in every season. No reservations – just go and wait to be seated. 40 minutes by car.
