Completely unpretentious with one of the most incredible selections of European beer I've ever seen! Vintage Belgian ales, gose, sours, lagers, a little something for everyone...so long as you're a fan of European styles (which I am). If you're looking for Heineken or Kronenburg, this might not be the spot for you. But if you're looking for a purely unique, artistic, comfortable pub with an amazing selection of beers and a very friendly and knowable bar staff, you've come to the right place!

My favorite Perugia pub has a large selection of local and international craft beers - over 100…read morebottled beers, plus ten rotating ones on tap with an amazing variety of different styles. During my first three nights, I did tastings of the nine tap brews which interested me. And was lucky: The following night, some of the tap beers had changed. The staff is very friendly and - as in all good craft beer pubs - offers free sips of the tap beers you are not sure of. Elfo Pub is hidden in a little side street, but it definitely is worth looking for.

I stumbled into this bar accidentally. I just followed the noise on the street (caused by about 20…read moreopen-air smokers & drinkers) when I was on the way back to my hotel which was located in the same neighborhood. It was the perfect spot for a quick nightcap after two in the morning: inexpensive, lively and therefore noisy. To speed up things, you buy a ticket for the drink of your choice at the table near the front door and then obtain it at the bar. As far as I remember, beer starts at €1, other drinks at €2.50. Dancing is not discouraged (see photos).

With seating inside the lovely dining room or a small collection of tables overlooking one of Perugia's artistic neighborhood alleyways. Staff is kind and patient, wine list is well curated with delicious offerings at a variety of price points (the house wine was delicious and inexpensive). The whole dining experience was a delight...the perfect place for a lively meal with friends or an intimate night with someone you love. They get busy, so reservations are suggested. But if there's a wait, they're happy to bring you a glass of wine while you make new friends out in the alley. All-in-all, one of Perugia's best intimate restaurants!!

The food is simply top-notch , not pricey, but exceptionally good, and made with love , and ingredients that taste the way they're supposed to. They also have an exceptional wine list, with some great natural wines available too (and, of course, the wines by the glass are yum) Nice environs, which are dimly out in a cosy way, and exceptionally friendly staff. Defo 5 stars....

The service was great, the Aperol Spritzers were delicious and the prices were incredibly reasonable. When the drinks were served we also got various bowls of finger-foods and delicacies.

Everything was delicious from the apps to the pasta, meat and cakes. Even the humblest antipasto was incredibly tasty, as if the true taste of every ingredient bloomed in your mouth. Among other things we had the most delicious chickpeas salad (you could never believe a chickpeas salad could be this yummy, I still remember it!), home-made Amatriciana bucatini, flaky and tender meat (not a big expert, so I can't really remember the cut, only how tasty it was) and some great cakes tasting (nom nom). I especially loved that while everything had an amazing taste, it was also very light, which speaks for high quality ingredients and thoughtful cooking. I am quite focused on healthy eating and often when I go out I feel heavy and sleepy after a big meal, but in this case everything was as amazing on our digestive system as it was on our palate! I would also like to mention the service, which was extremely attentive, they would explain the plates in detail (also it was a mid-week day at launch, the place wasn't too packed so they could pamper us) and make suggestions. Overall everyone was professional, extremely corteous and no aloof, which isn't always an easy balance to strike. My parents go there often and I could really see why, so you know this is a place for both tourists and beloved by locals, even because they often have nice events going (mostly in the evenings I reckon). If you are in the area, you should really check out this place. They have lots of parking and are in a very accessible area of the city, the place is big both inside and outside, so it manages to be quiet and pleasant, even being so close to the main train station and on the road to the historical city centre. Bear in mind this is not your average restaurant, so the bill is going to reflect that, but if you are looking to have fantastic food which is both local and traditional, but also modern and inventive, definitely go!
