They also have a vast selection of very cool and very strong cocktails. Skip the wine and the beer. Your servers are clearly over-worked and under-paid, and very stressed; this is not a place for good service. This is a place to look fancy, look at other people, and be looked at. ---- Picco di cocktail turistico Euro troppo caro ma carino Qualità: 4 Valore: 2 Servizio: 1 Ambiente: 5 L'interno di Riccardo Caffe - e in particolare il bagno all'interno di un'enorme grotta - è davvero la cosa più impressionante qui. Hanno anche una vasta selezione di cocktail molto cool e molto forti. Salta il vino e la birra. I tuoi server sono chiaramente sovraccarichi e sottopagati e molto stressati; questo non è un posto per un buon servizio. Questo è un posto dove apparire eleganti, guardare le altre persone ed essere guardati.

The Lounge caffe was a welcome stop for our party of two in Matera. Located on the main…read morethoroughfare it has a covered and partially enclosed outdoor seating area. Perfect if the weather were wet or cool. On our visit it was a beautiful warm evening. We came for cocktails and dinner. There was so much food. Nibbles of chips, peanuts and cereal. Then more with added olives, then sandwiches, and bread. And our hamburger and salmon salad had not arrived. Both were delicious. To top things off a light as air cream filled confection. What a great place. There are foods available inside as well as drinks. Whichever you decide on will be very good.

Eventually someone came by to clean it up. Noticed they don't have beer, or liquor. At least I didn't see it. The food was okay. Enjoyed the salami croissant sandwich over the ham which was hard, and bland. Fresh apples were sour. The men's restroom had 4 stalls, no urinals. Not that clean either.

Fortunately Marco Polo Club was the perfect place to hang out and eat/drink for a few hours. It's a quiet, professional space with different vibes from movie theater to jungle chill. Might be because of COVID, but everyone needed to order any non-packaged food items like muffins. I grabbed a yogurt and fruit cup as well during breakfast hours, as well as a cappuccino made-to-order. Lunch involved sandwiches, but I wasn't feeling more meat and cheese. Strong WiFi and plenty of space to spread out. Love this lounge!

Sweet, beautiful Matera. A place that seems made by a careless god, but which actually has more…read moreplanning and thought than you might think, all it takes is a visit to the ungrounded cisterns to understand that. We discovered areaotto our first evening in Matera, after dropping our bags off at our hotel in the sassi, we wanted a place to stop and have a drink and ended up staying here much longer than we imagined. Jutting off the side of a wall, during the day it is a communications agency, and night it turns into a bar and sort of disco. A dj plays cool tunes from the back of an ape vehicle, vintage and mis-matches chairs pepper the terrace. We settled into some old cinema chairs and ordered a moscow mule and a negroni sbagliato infused with ginger. Hot damn, these drinks were spot on, and for the cheap price 6€. My moscow mule was made with true ginger beer and in a copper mug. While they off an evening aperitivo buffet, we ordered off the a la carte menu, fava and chicory purée, a few bruschetta, and a mixed cheese platter. All were well-presented and tasted fabulous. We ordered tiramisu for dessert, which was made in a deconstructed style complete with your very own 'mezza-tazza' moka mug, so cool! The interior of areaotto is like a dream, a shabby-chic design one at that. The owner clearly put a lot of effort and love into this place and it shows. Mikaela the owner even took us to visit the secret back room, made in a speakeasy style complete with a James Bond mechanical pop-up bar. I could not love this place more if I tried, well-done! A very prime example of just how far this once-abandoned town considered the 'shame of Italy' has come.

But I'll start with the breakfast sandwiches. Both the bacon and egg as well as the salmon, egg and avocado were fresh and the bread had the lightly wood fired flavor to it. The espresso was spot on and the pizzas we had in the evening were also excellent. We had the Quattro Formaggi that was the best ever in regards to the types of cheeses on this pizza. Definitely a must stop!
