I've been to many bars across the world, but none have captivated me quite like this hidden gem in…read moreTrento. It's more than just a gin bar--it's an immersive experience, guided by a true artist of her craft. The woman who runs this place is nothing short of magical, a mind reader who curates each drink as if she's known your preferences for years. Her ability to craft the perfect gin-based drink, tailored precisely to your mood and taste, transcends the typical bar experience--it's personal, intuitive, and absolutely extraordinary. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was intimate and refined, with the perfect balance of sophistication and warmth. The bar itself is beautifully designed, with a top-notch selection of gins from around the world. But what truly sets it apart is the owner's sixth sense for knowing exactly what you need in the moment. She created one of the most exceptional, personal experiences of my life, and I don't say that lightly. Her right-hand person, the assistant, was equally impressive, ensuring that every detail of the experience was flawless. Together, they make an unbeatable team, delivering service that's not just attentive but intuitive. The cocktails themselves were masterpieces--complex, balanced, and unlike anything I've ever tasted. I've been to countless bars in my travels, but this one easily tops the list. It's the kind of place you should go out of your way to visit, even if Trento isn't already on your itinerary. If you love gin--or even if you don't--you'll leave this bar with a newfound appreciation for the craft. Quite literally, it was the best bar experience I've ever had, and it's a place I'll remember for the rest of my life. Rating: 5/5 - Exceptional.

There are excellent wines by the glass and little plates of tapas (vegetables breaded with capers, potato and egg torta etc.) that could make a light meal.

I got the vegan panini which came with roasted seitan, beets, caramelized onions and artichokes. I'm not vegan and I was beyond impressed. The bread was freshly toasted, crunchy yet soft, and so much flavor in the sandwich. I honestly wanted to come back and get it again but didn't have time. There are several tables outside. It was completely full when we first walked by. We came back again around 7:30 and someone had just left. Order and pay at the bar and sit down at the table after.

Also you can have some food here, there are some small sandwiches (fish, meet and vegetable one)... The bruschette are also very good.

But ask a local person where to find Naneti's, and they will know, for this is Treviso's most famous Osteria. Here local delicacies abound on the shelves and counter. You can savour local wines along with the traditional local cicheti snacks, featuring bologna ham, fresh country sausage and ossocollo and selections of cold cuts and cheeses served on wooden cutting boards. Beppe and Fabio, the joint owners, immediately make everyone feel at home. They'll hand you morsels to taste and try if you're not sure what you want. The decor is hard to describe. No-one seems to know how old is Naneti's, but it houses some weird and wonderful food- and wine-related implements, a collection of ancient bottles, and the walls are pinned with newspaper cuttings and notices dating back to the 19th Century. The wines are arranged within reach around the walls. Just pick one and hand it over the counter to be opened. There's no seating - everyone just stands and talks - and the crowds overflow into the alleyway outside. You cannot fail to make friends here - I met Max, my closest Italian pal, here over a glass or two of Cabernet Franc. Customers drop in after work to buy produce and wine that will be their evening supper. They usually linger for a chat with friends. Go there!

The dining room was filled with people eating quickly so they could head down the street to the opera. We sat on the two chairs on the sidewalk in front of the window. We slowly drank a glass each of Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva whole we watched the well dressed Veronese head to the opera. Great people watching and great wine -- the best we drank in Italy. If we had had another night in Verona we would have returned for dinner. BTW L'Orologio means "the clock." The restaurant is located by the clock in the city walls, hence the name. Did I mention how wonderful the Amarone is? Deep, rich, complex red wine from Veneto.
