The prices are super reasonable, and as an American traveling in Italy, I was looking for a proper breakfast. It only cost (€-€€), my girlfriend only paid 20€ for the first breakfast. The next day we paid 30€, b/c we got half the menu! Everything on the menu is very tasty. It's a funky, cozy coffee house that delivers some delicious food for reasonable prices. Barbara is awesome and the food is solid. Plus, she has a GREAT playlist, jams for days. Also, they do accept credit cards.

The cocktail/wine/beer menu was extensive and the drinks were excellent. The dinner menu was limited to some items for sharing and sandwiches. We shared the prosciutto e melon, which was excellent, and the portion was very generous for two people. The special for the evening, a homemade gnocchi pasta with tomato, zucchini (vegetables grown in the waitress' garden), and a light sauce was excellent. The apple cake with homemade vanilla gelato is their signature desert and is simply wonderful. The service was friendly and helpful. I would recommend La Vecchina for dinner or pre/post dinner drinks.
